Please note this is an older version of the software and only here for historical reference. While many of the methods still work, there are new tools which replace the need for this.
A more detailed video with more modern versions of the nodes is here

--------------------------------------- old description follows........
This video runs through the basic recipe I've used to make a crater, though you can do this a number of other ways. I've also used this as a chance to talk a little bit about some of the uses of the Combine node which is an important part of creating some interesting landscapes.
Small note. If you build this and change preview resolution, you will need to update the erosion node by clicking on it, and then right click the combine node it's connected to and select "refresh" or your result will look broken.
Hope you find this useful!
