No, I was just making a note, and a bit of a caveat. If you want to produce
images similar in quality to the ones that they have, you probably should be
prepared for massive rendering times, vast use of disk space by meshes and
very high learning curves. One might also assume that you are something of a
beginner, as your question was directed at making landscapes as well as
caves, and most experienced raytracers have a least a passing familiarity
with heightfields that your message did not convey. If this assumption is
innaccurate, then I am sorry for what must appear to be a supercillious
attitude.
