I'm having some trouble converting a JO cpt to a heightmap. I used ctp_cdep stripper, which created a raw file. I opened the raw at 1024x1024, count
2, interleaved, 8-bit, and was able to obtain a greyscale height image.
The problem is that the image I obtain consists of many black-through-white strips, rather than a single black-through-white colour range for the
entire terrain. For example, instead of a slope being represented by a black to white gradient, it is represented by many repeating gradients.
What am I doing wrong?

i seen this some time ago, cant remeber exactly what it was but it was real stupid. if i can remember what it was i will get back to this post. i want
to say it was just a setting in the stripper

Ok, but I'm using CTP_CDEP_Stripper.exe, and as far as I can see, that doesn't have any settings to change. Is there some other stripper I should be
using?

the fwo raven cpt converter worked well to convert cpts to height map, if anything once converted it had to be brightend

Ah, I've figured it out. There were TWO channels in the raw, and I was only looking at the first one. The first one is some kind of polygon map, and
the 2nd channel is the heightmap.

lol you explained it so technical the first time i figured you looked at the alpha chanel and that was whack well glad you figured it out

Can someone point me in the right direction to download this.
CTP_CDEP_Stripper.exe
Sounds like a very handy tool
