Great news, I own the previous version 1.25 I think but haven't used it in a while. Anyone know if this is going to be a free upgrade to reg users?

Lots of nice features...

Scripting and Commandline!!!  8) (pro edition)   ....it may be possible to create animated terrains/masks on the fly.  Even if you had to do things manually like create multiple project files with diferent erosion periods (for example) this would stilll make animation possible without requiring huge amounts of disk space for the different versions.
