ive recently done this picture on 2 differnt pcs just incase mine was on its way out or sumot lol
but it seems to happen on both so im wonderin if its a clitch with the preveiw or maybe someone knows why its happened but ..well plain to see ive got blockiness in me clouds to the top left n a lil on the right i think but ..well anyone any ideas how it happened as ive done a few cloud renders an all turned out ok :)
Que,
This is a well known issue and is caused by the acceleration cache, try turning this option off seems to be the advice and re-render but be prepared for extended render times.
I haven't used clouds since I got the update, which apparently has fixed the blockyness with the acceleration cache, but as yet I haven't looked into this.
Regards to you.

I have the update as mentioned: but haven't got round to using the clouds yet to attest to weather or not the blockiness has been removed or not, maybe some one could do a test to be sure and post the results!

Que, are you using the updated version of TG2 (released a few days ago)? In TG2 go to Help->About Terragen 2 and report the build number listed after "Terragen 2 Technology Preview 1". It should be 1.8.76.0.
If you are in fact using the latest version then it would be helpful for us to have this scene for further testing on this issue. As the change log for the latest version indicates some work was put into resolving this blockiness issue with the acceleration cache, but some problems may remain.
