aaros Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Hey all! I would appreciate some help in learning how to make my first heightmap.I have worked on interior cells before, but never tried making a heightmap for a mod, and it seems like there are conflicting descriptions of the best way to do it out there on the internet.I found this tutorial and have been trying to use it to create a heightmap. I had some trouble figuring out geocontrol, so I skipped to using this process: >create a greyscale heightmap in photoshop according to those specifications, raw, 16bit, ibm, etc>use TESAnnwyn with the command line described in this tutorial to generate an esp file from my heightmap Unfortunately it has not worked in the creation kit when I have tried to open the tesannwyn esps annwyn generates. The creation kit has given me some errors, saying the esp is "not a valid TES file," and it doesn't show my world in the list of worldspaces when I try to open it.So my question is how to create heightmaps, because I'm finding this a bit frustrating. I haven't been able to find a good explanation that works so far. I would appreciate some advice. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
