Hiya.

I'm going to look at Blender as soon as I see 2.5 for Windows7 64-bit with a GUI/Interface that works like *I* want to and not the other way around. I think that's the main point of 2.5 (to be customizble so it can work more like just about every other 3d app out there).

As for GROME, I saw their 'to-be' plugin list too...I just wanted to remind Conitec of it I guess...and secretly hope there already was a direct plugin link dohicky for it.

Another terrain program I'm looking at is GeoControl. Although it pretty much does ONLY terrain/materials. But it's easy to use and you get great results...but it's only about $90 (after conversion) less than GROME II and you get less functionality. Still...

Bigest hang up I have over not buying GROME II right now...I have the demo, but it doesn't allow any form of exporting...so I can't tell how easy/good the exporting actually *is*.
