If this is really true then this would be relatively very cheap!!

But you can buy a new copy of Terragen 2 with animation module for $300. This means the xfrog plant models are going for $400! Just seems a bit backwards that a state of the art 3d landscape\rendering package would go for cheaper than a collection of plant models that (although I do love the xfrog plants).
The new site looks great btw :)
Forgot to add it feels even worse knowing 3ds max and maya users get a 100 free xfrog plants but we are expected to fork out $400 bucks.
Love the new web site Planetside, and its a great feeling to see some of my images up there too :)

Correct me if I'm wrong - If I'm pre-purchaser I'll be able to have this $699 worth TG2 with all Xfrog Plants for the price that I paid for pre-purchase, yes? Or is there something wrong with my understanding.

$699 - prepurchase cost = price of xfrog plants

I assumed this meant that instead of paying $699 for TG2 and the xfrog plants you would just pay for the plants, which is $400 going of the cost of tg2.
look at this i found it on planetsides new site (very nice and clean by the way)

Pity. I was hoping that our pre-purchase will yield some more price drop in Xfrog matter.

But there are these framerate issues.

Glad you like the site guys. :)
Reck is correct, the discount coupon for pre-purchasers gives you the plants for $400 (for Deep+Animation purchasers). So basically it means you are at no disadvantage (or advantage) as a pre-purchaser - you get the same bundle price overall.

It
is a good looking box!
And as for XFrog pricing, there are 22 separate packages of trees. We pay $400 for them. That is $18 per package! If you buy a single package from the site http://www.xfrog.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PLST&Store_Code=GOSS it's $150!!
So we pay $132 less per package. Which totals at $2904 we DON'T have to pay for the WHOLE assortment!
Beautiful site, exactly what I like: clean and concise. Good work guys!
I like the new site.
I as well must voice my approval, nice work.
Double post, but:
"thunderheads, or even fog and mist. Use unlimited cloud layers in yours cenes for absolute re"
Just making you aware.
Thanks for the catch!
- Oshyan
The new site is great. I especially love the animation on the animation page of the Terrragen 2 tour.
It is slow, which means a lot of people are checking it out. ;D
Also wasn't there going to be a new template for the forums?
I too like the new site.
Yeah. The new site is slick.
Will there be a new gallery?
- Terje
Seems new free version is available now as well!

Yes: Terragen2Free20031.msi
Kudos to whoever did the new homepage. Very nice layout, and I hope it will garner the additional public attention and CG user interest that the Terragen/PlanetSide family of software deserves.
Great job. Also the node reference is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
I am thrilled. About the new site, about the generous grace period for the Deep Edition pricing, and now about the newly updated Free Edition. At long last, it's not a preview any longer! Thank you. Happy belated Earth Day ;)
final! it looks top, and very professional. good luck, i think terragen is finnaly going to take off!
There's a wikipedia page for TG2 now as well, if you have anything useful to add to it feel free to. I've probably missed loads.

@PG - Cool. But, hey, I'm not sure this is exactly accurate - "Planetside Software released the first public version of Terragen 2 after more than 3 years of development of both the core technologies and the program itself"
