Hi Jean-Paul, I suggest you have a look at my Vue 4 review, I talk about the LightWave integration: http://www.cgfocus.com/ArticleDetails.cfm?ArticleID=104 Vue will export terrains but the polygon count is monstrous and the image maps are not that great...Terragen is a lot better in compositing with LightWave. Right now I am testing Bryce 5 and I just finished the review of World Builder and like I said a few times the best CG landscape software would be a mix of Terragen, Vue 4, Bryce 5 and World Builder (sorry I didn't try out WCS yet). I love Vue 4 but if you have LW7 you don't need Ozone at all since SkyTracer has a lot of neat new features and along with LW's radiosity and baking/HDRI it will allow you to make impressive scenes. :) Hope it helps, Vue 4 is a great software for the price. Cheers!
