Yes I do. You want my secret ?

Take a look at one of the most powerful landscape editors I have ever seen at:
http://www.daylongraphics.com/

There are several other programs that make height field landscape creation
easier than in Pov itself listed in my links collection. See link in my sig.

And a big "Amen" from Rev. Bob on that.  Great program.  Exports
VRML 97 and POVRay 3, so no messy conversions needed.  Great
for freeform and a pretty good variety of algorithmic terrain
making.

What we're looking for: destinations.
What we end up getting: journeys.

I like Terragen, but I dont think it will export, so you're stuck with a
background image or image map.
