A guide on how to generate heightmaps with L3DT.

A terrain mask is a little tough to explain. Basically, it's a picture that determines which texture goes where. So I can have a snowy texture go here, a grass texture go there, and so on.

Great tutorial, defintly gonna keep it as a book mark, could u make or know of a tutorial on how to put sky u make from sky maker into map maker, mine never seems to work for me and its most likely something im doing lol.

I've hardly touched the sky maker yet, since I'm busy with heightmap and mask making, but I could take a look at it.

Edit: Have you successfully loaded the sky file?

[Ouuka]

No i havent been able to load it in MapMaker Yet, im not sure what im doing wrong -.- But imma keep trying, it just never loads for me QQ D:

Have you managed to save your sky and/or weather file?

[Ouuka]

yea, but when i try to load it into map maker it doesnt appear or it says cannot be found, so maybe i have to put the file somewhere else? just not rly sure at all

[Hoc45]

If you don't get an error while loading it in the map maker, I think that means it works. However, I don't think skys play their cycle in the map maker.

[Ouuka]

Possible, but ive seen ppl with screenies of their map with their sky in it, its only reason i beleive im doing something wrong :\ Bu ty anyways ^^ if u do figure it out lemme know <3

I love you xD  Both the map and mask tutorials have been helpful to me trying to learn how to make my own maps.  You've made my day!

Whenever i load the heightmap, FH stops responding. O.o
