A) Make a model and use NG DLL for collision
B) Make a matrix using Mat_edit - www.matedit.com

This is probably just me but I find matrices to be a little slow in programs in addition to the fact that they can look very blocky. I recommend using something like Total Terrain, then using a heightmap reader to convert it to a .x and like RPGamer said using NG's DLL to check collision instead of using GROUND HEIGHT and all that nonsense.
