I'm just trying to make a simple snow field to fit into a medium sized scene.  I tried adjusting the snow scenes that came with Carrara but they're way too big and complex.  I also tried a simple plane with some displacements but weird things started happening to other objects in the scene (I have no idea why.)

It's just suppossed to be a billowy type of snow that a sled would be sliding through.  Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Try making a vertex plane in the  size you need, activating the Smooth function and then simply push and pull the polygons around unthil you have something that you are pleased with.

Thanks!  That seems to have done the trick.
