Rendering grass and highly detailed terrain textures

[Aaron]

Hi Everyone,

In response to the frequently asked question of "how do I render blades of grass on terrain?", I've written a guide on rendering grass and highly detailed terrain textures. If you have any questions or would like to discuss such matters, please reply here.

Cheerio,
Aaron.

Pre-emptive snarky off-topic warning: This thread is a 'sticky' and I would therefore request that the discussion remains on the given topic.

I found this chapter out of the online version of Nvidia's GPU Gems very enlightening. it's on the topic of billboard grass rendering.
