AbsolutePhoenyx Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 exact quote from creationkit.com The Heightmap editor was not used by Bethesda Game Studios as a fully-featured tool during the development of Skyrim. Outside of import/export, the features of the tool are considered obsolete and unsupported.While the status and stability of the tool features are largely unknown, we have chosen to keep them in place in hopes that they may prove useful for some modders. when i try to use the hightmap generator it crashes my CK how do i go about obtaining or rendering a hightmap. is it possible to use terragin to build one?

iroquoispliskin Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 (edited) What do you mean by obtaining or rendering? You can create heightmap files with any imaging program capable of exporting to a grayscale .RAW 16-bit 1024x1024 IBMPC byte format file. Photoshop is probably the most commonly used program for this task - no special plugins are required. Be advised the heightmap tool within the Creation Kit will crash every time regardless of what you are trying to do with it. ATM there is no known work around for creation, importing or exporting heightmaps with the Creation Kit. If you are trying to generate your own heightmap, there are some easy to use heightmap generating programs available with a quick search through Google. Terragen is a tool I used when developing for Source, however I prefer to create my own now. Hope that helps.exact quote from creationkit.com The Heightmap editor was not used by Bethesda Game Studios as a fully-featured tool during the development of Skyrim.
