Look in the codebase and search for 'hill' for a code snippet.

The command you need is "set matrix height". If you look in the code manual it will give you more info but what the command does is raise specific points on a matrix to a certain height. So you would have to raise the heights of points on the matrix to form hills. Also if you want random hills and mountains use the randomize matrix command. Hope that helps.

P.S.-You mentioned you could texture matrixes if you look at my recent post "help with loading images and texturing matrixes" you'll see i'm having trouble with that. Can you give me some help?

Its still work in progress, but the code to texture the matrix and set the heights works fine.

Need any help just ask
