Again I went back to File Sharing Procedural Terrain, looking for a futuristic landscape for those Freebie models from Kitbash3D.....

This section has some great stuff I want to try with the path tracing..
So far so good, this is one of AP's terrain files...4 hour render, the clouds I think, as I am halfway through a 30 minute render with no clouds right now.... :)

Same terrain source, no clouds, terrain surface layer color change. 1hr render
This has mhaze fake stones as a tgc. I put a reflective shader on the tiny stones; now I am in gold territory I guess..... ;D Starburst filter 0.08

Like the second one best so far. (There's gold in them thar hills.) But all are nice. Keep posting.
I like the 3rd one most. With a dark ambience it could look like a lava planet.
Also like the 3rd one (noctilucent sky) the best. Sky seems to be more fitting to the landscape.
