That's a rather vague description... how exactly does it look "worse"? More blurry? stretched unevenly? Too much tiling/repetition visible? Moiré-artifacts? Smile

I mean that it looks more similar to actual grass but the texture looks really bad, but it doesn't matter as I deleted it already and started working with Acies' tutorial.

RE: Texturing a custom terrain

Meshlab's automatic retopology works well with things like rocks and stuff, so that might be worth a go for simplifying a terrain. Once you import a high poly mesh, go to Filter> Remeshing, Simplification and Reconstruction> Quadric Edge Collapse Decimation. Then just set the target number of tri's you want, and click OK.
