What is T2?
T2 is a program for generating terrain textures from heightmaps and inputs (texture, colour or noise). Parameters can be set per input to define how much they influence the output. The man parameters control height and slope ranges but there are many more options available for fine tuning the output. In addition T2 allows you to view a 3D representation of the world and export the mesh.
