I wish there was a way to give a little variety to the infinite terrain created with CreatePlane command. just a few bumps or something that won't look like Kansas.

I didn't mean with a bump map... really... I know how to do that and how to scale the thing. What I was thinking was there would be some way to apply just a little variety to the createplane feature.

Loadterrain has nothing to do with bumpmapping and Createplane is just a *plane*.

If you want an infinite terrain, you must write a terrainengine, or use and modify an existing one!

This could be a starting point:
