I suspect that it is because you're using a plane.  In this situation I 
tend to use a heightfield.

Have a look at the attached .mdl and see if that's more like you were 
after.

Admittedly the main problem with using the Heightfield method is that you 
can be limited in the size of terrain you can create unless you have 
stupid amounts of memory.

If the attached file is not what you're after, feel free to ask again, 
but could you try to post a little more information on exactly what 
you're after next time?

Bye for now,
     Jamie.
