Well, why not create your terrain in Max?

If you want a heightmap-based terrain, however, you might want to take a look at GeoMipTerrain.

If I may say, be careful that you don’t pick too complex a first project - I’d suggest starting with something pretty simple, in order to get a “feel” for Panda, before striking out on more complex projects.

Of course, you may already be doing this with this project; I just want to give that caveat, just in case. :slight_smile:
