• the main Unity terrain editor tutorial (video) -- this is quite good, and covers most everything (plus more) we discussed in class
  
  
• another decent tutorial (video) -- this has an annoying beginning, skip ahead to 2:20 for the actual content
  
  
• Unity tutorial session -- this was done 'live' for people watching, and it covers a lot of ground (ha ha!). (video)
  
  
• the main Unity terrain editor tutorial -- this is the text-based tutorial, good for reference too.

• Unity particle system live training (video) -- another 'live' recording from Unity. This was the tutorial I used to learn about particle systems; it's quite good (video)
  
  
• Introduction to Particle Systems (Ray Wenderlich) -- a good text-based (and searchable) tutorial
  
  
• another good one -- this one gets a bit more involved, not too long though (video)
  
  
• Unity Particle Systems manual pages -- the reference for particle systems use, both in the editor and scripting (so you can control the ps within a script). Use the button at the top to switch between the two.

• basic filter information -- I used a band-pass filter on noise to make the 'ambient' sound for our scene. This discusses the different types of filters and what they do.
