Query the terrain first, then give your trees random X and Z positions,
then compute the Y value for those positions, according to the terrain
query results. You'll have to do a bit of maths though.

Yeah, how do you query tertain? >_<

How do you edit it?

How do you access what you queried?

How do you know which terrain is in which cell?

[View Quote] Only the 1337 peeps know. The terrain documentation is just poor. It took 4 of us
to decipher it once... and that was just to level terrain in a given area.

Like i said AW's best kept secret... you cant have us lowly amateurs
messing around with terrain do you?

If you want to know you just have to struggle to become one of the
elite few that got the inside info...

API is an abbreviation of Application Programming Interface. Any component
not part of a program used by a program for functionality can be called an
API. The COM wrapper is an API, D3D is an API, Winsock is an API, etc. I
believe there are installation instructions provided with the COM wrapper.
