does anyone know how to get this to work:

specifically just the effect of the smooth layer over the underlying strata...
ive tried many ways for a while now and cant quite get it...

I haven't tried it myself, but I'd say if you apply a strata shader to the child port of a surface layer, which only exist at high slope ranges, then you'll have this effect.

That picture is very clever when you analyse what has actually been done. Is there anything you can't do with Terragen?
(OK, well, you can't order pizza, but I might make a plugin for that...)

Or maybe you try it on your own:
- create a negative displacement where the strata is supposed to appear.
- make a child layer with another displacement which is stretched along the X- or Z-Axis
