Title: HeightMap Issues
Post by: LoopyBunny53 on November 22, 2017, 03:34:05 am

I have been having many issues with a heightmap I just created. The game keeps crashing and saying I have issues. Below are everything about the map. Can someone please try the heighmap and see what I am doing wrong?

The properties indicate that it was never flattened. Observe the following image.

 I have flattened the image (Note I work in Photoshop) I am still having issues with this.

In that case, I'd also suggest altering the image's mode as demonstrated below.

If all else fails, you could try loading the height map as a .jpg after resaving it under the .jpg file extension. Mine has been buggy like that in the past, and sometimes changing the file extension worked great for me.

I had a look at your heightmap and tested what I did to fix it.

It's using Transparency: Remove Alpha Channel
It's currently in RGB Mode: Set Mode to Grayscale
