I always get these sharp edges of colors where the land ends unter the water. Is there any way to hide this ????

Hi Holli, In the terrain editor, click on the box at the lower left which says, Lower Edges. You may wish to do it more than once. Adjusting the "clip" number to 1 may help too.

some other approaches depending on effects you do or don't want to get: - bring the ground plane up to be flush with the terrain (make sure the terrain is the same texture as the terrain...or at least something the will not cause an abrupt edge) - make the water less transparent...if you don't want to see the edge of the terrain then does it really need to be that transparent? - expansion on what mike said, bring the clipping up so that he terrain is clipped just below the waters edge. -karl

I'm pretty sure you can just "paint" it out as well, by using the paint tool set on Dig, and going around the edges with it. There seem to be alot of ways to do it, actually. I had one particularly stubborn terrain once, so I exported it as 3DS and used Rhino to chop off the offending parts. I've also used Amorphium for similar actions. For that matter, I've used both these programs to create terrains for use in Vue, which I'd do more of, were I not so lazy. ;) Actually, Vue is very versatile when it comes to terrains. The defaults aren't so hot, but with some tweaking, you can get pretty much whatever you want. :)
