First of all, thanks for your replies!

The surface layer will allow you to define maximum slopes of your snow, as well as in the effects tab you can use intersection tweaks that can create interesting effects. There is a file share "Embossed Snow" you can search that utilizes these features and a good basic setup to inspect. There are also plenty of others but a lot more focused on texturing, reflection, and how it just looks.
Embossed Snow looks really good but it's 11 years old, is it outdated or is the concept of "outdated" irrelevant for this kind of stuff ?
Anyway if you have other links for similar stuff, I'm interested.

Hi Franck (is this your real name?)
Welcome to the forum!!!
Here is a clipfile I made for rain. Maybe it's useful:

That's indeed my real name.
Thanks for this file, do you know if snowfall ones exist too ?

For A start you can:
-Use A surface shader with colour set to white.
-In the Effects tab check Intersect underlying and set to favour depressions.
-Set minimum altitude to taste. You can add a small displacement altitude to give some bulk.
-Make this the last shader in your chain.
File attached.
I'm going to give it a look in order to understand how those works, thanks.

Welcome indeed. I hope you'll be having a lot of fun working with TG. Learning curve might be steep, but there's plenty help here.
Btw. added little extra in Mick's file.
Thanks, I'll give it a shot too.
I'm kinda used to stuff with crazy learning steep, don't worry. ^^
Right now, I've only read the wiki's tutorials and I'm open to every suggestions concerning resources like advanced tutorials, models, effects or basically every thing that could be useful for a beginner.
Out of curiosity, for your renders are you using only Terragen or you also rely on other softwares, I'm interested to know how do they interact between them.
But maybe I should make an other topic for those questions.
