Simple question: does Terragen 2 take into acount the atmospheric refraction on the horizon?
For example, if I have the good terrain and I place my camera on the heights of Marseille, will I see Corsica?

No it doesn't. It does, however, take haze into account, which you see in the default scene as the terrain vanishing into the distance.
They just issued a tornado warning and said to stay away from windows. Does that mean I can't use my computer?
