I have tried various 3D tool, but what I am lookign for is a simple Terrain tool... with SkySpheres and terrain... Unfortunatley there appear to issues effecting my choice.

1. The Free trials don't always allow exports so I am not 100% comfortable as I want to use the DBPRO native formats..

2. Not sure how to import and apply the different formats once they are created into DBPRO i.e addition code required for animated seas and skys...

Any pointers or recommendations... btw I have a limited budget so under £30 woudl be ideal... thx

for skyboxes just use terragen as it can make prettymuch photorealistic terrains and with a bit of work or using a plugin you can get all 6 images from each angle, its free for under 1024^2 images or something which is fine.

Halowed are the ori.

I suggest you TextureMaker, there's a FisrtDayEngine inside that can render 360 degree panorama (sphere sky) with great result!
I love it..
