kibblesticks Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 So I'm follow this excellent tutorial From Heightmap to Worldspace in Skyrim by the creator of the upcoming Hoddminir mod. It's great and very easy to follow but I'm stuck on one point, the tutorial uses photoshop for a vital step which I'll quote here:Save as RAW, with the settings : Header 0, IBM PC Saving in this format then allows your heightmap to be read by the CK and other programs related to worldspace creation. My problem is that I don't have Photoshop (too pricey for my blood) and can't find a way to save as a raw from GIMP2. I've also tried a bunch of free photo editing packages but they either don't work or they save a raw but it doesn't retain the original picture. Extra info:I'm trying to get this into skyrim:http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j454/kibblesticks/GeoControl02.jpg This is my heightmap in Geocontrol: http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j454/kibblesticks/GeoControl01.jpg This is my heightmap after exporting as a TIFF 16 bit greyscale out of Geocontrol: http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j454/kibblesticks/generated.jpg But like I said, the next part of the tut requires me to Save as RAW, with the settings : Header 0, IBM PC and I don't have Photoshop, any suggestions?
Cynster Posted May 24, 2012 Posted May 24, 2012 What about trying out a trial if you plan on using it for just a bit?

Thanks Cynster, I don't suppose you'd know if trial work has a watermark would you? I saw the trial kit on the website but I kinda put it out of mind as I assumed everything would be watermarked, resulting in "Photoshop tm" being written across my island :biggrin: But it's probably worth a try, thanks.
Cynster Posted May 24, 2012 Posted May 24, 2012 It shouldn't be watermarked - but I haven't used it in a long time.
MyGoodEye Posted May 25, 2012 Posted May 25, 2012 If nobody has done this for you already, here's a link to the file from Photoshop as requested. If you need it done again (or differently), PM me. KibbleSticksRaw - David
