Any ideas? Do I have a path wrong maybe..
I get errors on the heightfields, all the shaders are fine.

On 2'nd look, nothing loads TGD file read errors, on all tgd's

Mine works fine on PC are you on Mac? If so maybe there's a Mac user in the house?

Nope PC, Buzz

Do you have your Terragen Key in the right folder within the program?

I got it fixed, on the new update I shortened the path to c:\tg2\
When I reinstalled to the default path, everything worked fine.

Yep, thanksss Buzzz.  ;) Still seems like a bit of a bug though that should be fixable because the final version won't install to:\Terragen 2 Technology Preview (Deep)\
Maybe if I had left my project file directory, hold all files, tgd's, tgo's, bmp's and so forth, outside of Terragen, I wouldn't be having this problem.

edit
If I remember correctly, I think Matt and Jo released the last update on the Friday of a US 3 day holiday weekend. Hmmm :)

I don't think it's a bug, it's just that TG2 stores paths to files and if paths change then files can't be found anymore. We have the start of some stuff in place to help alleviate this, and make it easier for you change the locations of things as well as easier to share files with other people, but it isn't very useful yet. Anyway, it's more of an inconvenience than a bug.

Is it one this weekend as well? I live in New Zealand so I don't know. Are you saying I can have Monday off? Thanks! ;-).

Sure you can have Monday off, but no I was saying that I know when the next release will be. ;)
