You can apply motion blur by clicking on Cameras -> Render Camera and then changing the motion blur length.

Motion blur is applied by default on motion sequences.



As to your first question, I can't understand exactly what you're asking. To render a sequence, you click on Renders, and then towards the bottom there are some tabs, labeled "Quality", "Crop Region", etc. Click on the one labeled "Sequence/Output" and then click "Render Sequence".

I think the little disk icon is intended to open a file browser to allow you to easily select where the output files are saved to.  Its not working.  I am sure I have read somewhere that this is a known issue and will be fixed when the animation module receives some attention.  This will be after the main product goes gold.  It is stated that the animation module is a separate add on module which will be completed after the final release of Terragen 2.  For now we just have to set the path the hard way or do what I do which is let TG render the frames to the default location (Root of the C drive), and then move them to where I want them.

I was able to change the directory for the frames. To avoid confusion or accidental deletion of a file in the root of my harddrive, I added "anim" to the end of the directory line. Terragen automatically created a folder named "anim" and rendered all of my frames there.

I also disabled the duplicate frames option - I don't like having duplicates.

To render a sequence use the "sequence/output" tab and the Render Sequence button there, after setting up your image path and sequence range. Motion blur is on by default and its *length* (amount of blur) is controlled in the camera node. The *quality* is linked with antialiasing, so higher antialiasing will give you smoother, less grainy, and more realistic results.
