Yep, if you have seen the description of the animation I explain that the
textures had caused a jittering effect, much like 'crand' had been added to
the finish, but no AA or crand was used.  To remedy I have switched to a
very flat texture for dirt, rock, grass and trees.  I thought about adding
actual tree objects someday but the grass would most likely remain texture
alone.

Thanks back.  I was thinking these looked like some kind of mountains I had
seen in pictures/television before.
