OK,

How do I change a Terrain's Heightmap, scale, texture and other things after it is created with the "Build Terrain" command? I tried deleting the object, but it said that the Terrain already existed and could not be overwritten when I tried to Re-make it.

Could you help me out here?

I doubt you can draw me/60 by hand, so you REALLY can't draw ME/1, can you?

A terrain is considered by DBPro as an object.
So you can use some of the 3d commands to change scale and texture (scale object and texture object). You can not change the Heightmap, you must first destroy the terrain created using the Destroy Terrain command (new in U6.0) and then create a new one.

Thanks a bunch! I'll see if this command works (it should I have V.6.1 of DBPro) But one thing... the command "Destroy Terrain" as well as the "Update Terrain" command are not visible in the Help File for the Advanced Terrain DLL. Are they posted elsewhere on this site? Is there a way to find out about these "Hidden" commands?

EDIT: Wait... I may just have the standard pack i'm not sure...

I don't believe TGC has already prepared the help files, but you can find some interesting info on all commands at:
