I just thought I'd post the difference between terragen and reality. I was hiking out in the mountians so I tried to get a similar angle in Condor.

Nice photo's. What a lovely walk that looks like!
My first attempts at the SA Drakensberg have been very dissapointing in this respect. The 90m data that we are using simply cannot reproduce the finer detail in some areas.

Is there any way of adding 'roughness' to the surfaces?

Only 90m data is only suitable for designing scenery for Condor Soaring, unless anyone knows any different.

The other problem is trying to get tree coverage. There is no out landing unless you pick a lake in most of the rocky mountains.

That's not a problem. Look at my tutorial for creating forest from Landsat images.

With big coverage like that, you may have some speed problems with the trees parameter at full.
