I am having a problem, I think.  If i enter the terrain editor, the terrain looks flat with some small bumps.  I can hit the mountain button, and although the terrain changes, it still stays relatively flat.

I seem to remember it not looking so flat in the past.  Is there a setting i am overlooking?

It has been a while since i created a terrain, so did an update change this?

I am using Vue 8.5 Infinite.  It could be graphics card related, i guess.  I did get a message that not all features are supported by my graphics card; which seems strange to me as my graphics card is an ATI HD4850 with 1 GB DDR3 RAM. 

Which brings me to another question.  What graphics card works best with Vue 8.5 Infinite that doesn't cost an arm and a leg?  (Meaning, under $250.00)

It works fine now.  I reset all settings to default.  I do not know what setting it was that was causing it though.

You might've changed the seed parameter in the Options tab of the terrain editor by accident.

Actually, i figured it out.  I think E-On changed the way they handle the terrain editor.  What was happening is I was choosing 2048x2048 in the initial dialogs for size, thinking that was for resolution.  Once I reduced the size, the editor looked normal; or at least as i remember it.
