A guide on how to generate heightmaps with L3DT.

[Hoc45]

Then something must be wrong with the heightmap image. Is it 513x513? Is there no alpha channel?

Can use you use photoshop as well as gimp? Thank you making this, a big help c: Also, I can't seem to save the map as a png file, just dmf comes up from the drop down. Do you know how to change this?

[Hoc45]

You should be able to use Photoshop, but I haven't used it much, so I'm not sure. And when you say you can't save the map, are you referring to saving the heightmap in L3DT? If you are, try saving it as a different file type, then open it up in another program and save it as a png.
