Those shots are nice, but I think you should increase a little bit your mesh complexity. It seems quite low on those shots.
You can safely increase it to 19 meters without big FPS impact. (In fact, it's more on the scenery loading time that you really feel a difference, much longer when you set a precise value, such as 19 or 10 or less...)

I think you are referring to the CFG file? this is what I got in there.
[TERRAIN]
LOD_RADIUS=4.500000
MESH_COMPLEXITY=100
MESH_RESOLUTION=25
TEXTURE_RESOLUTION=29
AUTOGEN_DENSITY=5
DETAIL_TEXTURE=1
WATER_EFFECTS=7
TERRAIN_MAX_AUTOGEN_TREES_PER_CELL=1500
TERRAIN_MAX_AUTOGEN_BUILDINGS_PER_CELL=2000

I would like to say "I'm Sorry" to waspiflab. If I had seen your post before I posted these shots, I wouldn't have posted them. Your shots are super and much better than mine. Sorry.

No I was not referring to the CFG file, just to the normal scenery settings in the game, I was talking about the mesh resolution, I don't remember the exact name. Set it to 19 meters, and you'll get some nicer mesh without too much FPS impact.

And seen that you have posted some parts of your CFG file, I would recommend you to decrease the values TERRAIN_MAX_AUTOGEN_TREES_PER_CELL and TERRAIN_MAX_AUTOGEN_BUILDINGS_PER_CELL to 800, or even 1000. This will let you increase your autogen slider.
