Hi Chris,
Unfortunately, terrain build-up from elevation data has not been
implemented yet. The 3D stuff inefficiently renders layer map
objects into 3D space, and it would be nice if it instead created
textures that were overlaid onto the terrain. That's the goal of a
re-design for this year.
Regards,
Don
