     Funny you should ask about this, as I'm about to tape a tutorial on this
exact same thing tommorow afternoon for Lightwaved. Look for it. The trick is
to use a morph. First create your landscape using a displacement map, use
save transformed to save the new landscape. Then make a field of grass that
lies on a flat plane and save it as grass1.lwo. Load up grass1.lwo and
displacement map it with the landscape displacement map. A very important
note is that you have to use the same texture size and center as the
landscape object. Chances are your grass field is slightly different in size,
and then wouldn't fit on the land. It should now conform to the landscape.
Save transformed as Grass2.lwo. Remove the displacement map from memory and
load in your landscape, grass1 and grass2.  Disolve grass2 out 100%, morph
grass1 into grass2 at 100%. You should now see only grass that is conformed
to the landscape. Apply the displacement map for the waving grass effect to
grass1 and walah! done. Anyway, look for a more detailed explanation of this
in an upcoming lightspeed. I'll also be covering some particle effects...
