Default Re: Height Maps

Maybe someone can help me with this this: Is there a way to change the "scale" of the maps so that they don't "plateau" once you reach 150m? Something like changing the height per elevation from 10m to 25m or such.

The default is 10m so if you are plateauing on a large portion of the map you can try changing that higher and then instead of each level being 10m each level will be whatever you set....try 50 to start and see if you like it but sometimes with too much elevation to deal with it just won't work so you need to make your adjustments manually or pick a new location

I sent an email to Tuomas about this when it first surfaced and I have not had a reply.

The last time he posted on the forums was nearly 1 year ago

This may be him....or not

Exclamation Re: Height Maps

No reply yet and there could be 100 reasons why but I may have found out why this has happened. On my first try today a message was displayed that said the website’s certificate expired 81 days ago

Quote:
Error code: SEC_ERROR_EXPIRED_CERTIFICATE
BUT HOPE STILL LIVES

I can get to the map editor now but it shows a white screen until you press the bottom button that toggles between map and satellite imagery

And from that I was able to generate a map ! get while you can

Exclamation Re: Height Maps

This is a plain rough 90x90 map I created using Venhola and the advanced map editor cut and paste. It is nominally an area in Tunisia given the designation Hill 609 but the map is a mash up of peaks and valleys created from the original map that did not turn out as well as I hoped.

Maybe someone can use it for something. It is interesting

Seems like the Venhola site is down again. Hope this is temporary, I am working on a campaign right now...
