It's not that terribly hard: store the texture mesh (2D, from the land

and do an intersection test when generating them

A nice textured scenery on an irregular grid:

Probably by using multi-texturing.

i am trying to build more realistic terrain. when i am searching i found
some info about that on

. also i read tutorials about scenery generation in fgsd.
my question is which way do i have to follow to build

This idea, as fine as it is, is not new to the list.
The most hindering fact is that there - AFAIK - is no Open

What kinda machine(s) did you use, and how long did it take to build
the scenery?
I haven't timed the latest builds real close, but figure if you throw a
couple machines at it in parallel, it's going

Arnt,
You should be aware that scenery building is much more of a data
shuffling job, and much less of a cpu intensive job. The big
bottlenecks will be your network bandwidth and server disk IO.
