I have uploaded a DAT file with a landscape (plus some of
the intermediate files). The colours will have to be changed
(I just used 0 to 7). I think 1 and 2 should be blue, six
should be brown, and the rest should be grey or green as you
see fit.

I hope you can get the building and the landscape to work
together.

Thanks, Jacob, but I'm not sure your landscape will work too well with
the building.  You see, the actual building is in Pennsylvania, not a
particularly mountainous state.  The main cantilever deck hangs out over
the brook (Bear Run?) and part of the waterfall, which is probably no
more than 2 or 3 meters high.  The whole scene is set in a deciduous
forest.
  I must admit that the tall cliffs you generated would make a very
impressive setting!  I don't want to detract from the building though.

  I've played with the landscape generator a little bit before, so maybe
I can try to create the landscape I'm looking for.  The very least I can
do is create a landscape and then edit the DAT file instead of the image.
I seem to remember the landscape generator using plates and bricks to
build the landscape.  Has this been changed to use the tall 1x1 bricks?
Could it be edited to use 2x2 bricks to create a flatter landscape?

  Has anyone built trees about 25 bricks high that would be suitable for
a forest?
Thanks for the help,
--Bram
