Continental terrain

[Bedwyr]

As a further question, how do I go about successfully changing the heightmap and painting climates in FT Pro? It seems devilishly difficult to control. The brush settings don't obey the buttons I click, the climates change... oddly on brushstrokes (eg- it seems like climates are set in concentric circles with bare rock at the inside and boreal on the outside... it would be nice to just be able forcibly change the climate to what I want or change existing areas by 1 or 2 steps rather than tossing these strange visual rings around my brush), and the default settings don't seem to affect the terrain much. Suggestions?

If you look at my sig there is a link to a keyword index. Go look up Fractal Terrains and you will see threads by a few people. Waldronate is the man who can. He has some great tuts on here. Also the thread by me is merely a link to his comprehensive tut too. Should keep you busy.
