you will need to convert your RAW file which is the height map "greyscale" useing novas mod tools when done you will need to convert that cpt with the
unofical mod tools and make a trn file

right im with you on the cpt conversion,
i dont need to be cheeky or ungreatful but ive been at it 1 week solid now and i still cant find no how to.....
i would have thought that someone would have made one, ive read some but not as detailed or for other versions of the game. i find they are aimed at
people who already know how to do them or are more familiar with the tools and programs needed
the stickie post is all well and good but it dosent tell you how to do it step by step (its a great guide dont get me wrong and i thank you for the
basics)
i can make the files i need, i believe only 2 are needed but then what?
how do i put them into the dfx directory?
what the hell is a trn file and how do i write one?
what settings are needed when creating a terrain? 8 bit ? 24 bit? does the size matter as when i open up terragen i get no option for 24 bit? only 8
bit!
i could go on and on but i wont waste your time with my ranting, all i ask is for some one whose done a terrain to do a step by step ( coz i will
when i make one that is simple to anyone)
please forgive me if you think that this sounds ungreatful but i know a lot of friends who have tried and failed, i wont give in that easily
TIA
