Just some hole in the ground.

Smart idea David!
The hi-res map on the rather low-res terrain makes the terrain appear much higher resolution. I reckon working in this manner speeds things up. How is the difference in memory use?
Well worked out the details in the shadows. I also sometimes use a height map terrain as in the channel Ambience for additional illumination. Sometimes, this will edit it into a 2D editor or TE. Thus it is possible to simulate the wet coastline.
