The snow border height (above which the snow shader should render snow)
is controlled using the rendering dialog box. Since the scenery in
FlightGear is using meters I guess it's 2000 meters.

I haven't seen these.. unless this is also the snow shader.

As far as I know the crop shader creates it's own appearance. That's why
you can't see any repetitions (which are common when using textures).
It's only one type of cover right now.
