Much improved vegetation. More dense and blends into the ground smoothly.

Your grass blending looks really nice. I can’t tell if you have 1,000s of billboards or if you’ve just blended colors of the ground and the grass really well.
Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks!

There are quite a few billboards there :)
However..
We do the terrain by vertex color + detail textures.
The vegetation is then created using black/white textures and take the terrain color in as a parameter, so they are colored almost the same and blend in very nicely.
Sorry for the late reply, I need to get some email notification stuff on these comments!
