@Pirate Myke : just checked, it works reliably for me:
1) Boot your PC
2) Fire up GG
3) Load the Morning Mountain Stroll Demo
4) Go to "Save Standalone"
5) Run the standalone ... and see the black terrain
6) go to the MyGames\Morning Mountain Stroll folder
7) Open Guru-Game.log
8) have the editor search for "CUSTOM" in the log
9) you should find the following messsages
10) you won't find a CUSTOM folder stated in those messages in the terrainbank folder.
11) create the "custom" folder
12) copy the *D.dds files referred to in those messages from the original GG folder structure to the "custom" folder
13) Run the standalone again... see reasonably loooking terrain!
