Hi, I recently started with using 3DGS and have good experience with Flash Actioscript 2.0, so not entirely new to game design... Although I have found that with the way comercial games work, I won't be designing entire games as with flash.. This being so I found that I really enjoy the art of making and sculpting terrains. I have used Nem's Terrain Generator and have yet to figure out how to use 3DGS to make terrains, but that is sorta besides the point.

Anyways I was wondering if anyone could give me some tips as to which programs to use (preferably free) but if not then please post the price.

Thanks for your help
RJ
