New Question: I have a heightmap importer ([url]http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/142945-heightmap-importer/[/url]) but for the life of me can't get it to work fully, I get to the point where it asks me for the map of the heightmap (Which is a .png and grayscale) and when I enter it, it crashes. So, can anyone help me get this working, or is there another way to import heightmaps? (NOT Omen)
Can you even [b]import[/b] maps?
I think I've seen it done. I don't know how, but don't get your hopes down. Check the MC forums.
[QUOTE=Unicorn Kid;30460944]Can you even [b]import[/b] maps?[/QUOTE] I've worked all day, and managed to find a grayscale heightmap. Then I realize exactly this, I don't actually know how to get a heightmap of this size into game. (It's 6500x6500~ pixels)
With the right mix of map editors you could (Omen and MCEdit I think) That's not a heightmap though, that's a normal map.
[QUOTE=TheDecryptor;30469062]With the right mix of map editors you could (Omen and MCEdit I think) That's not a heightmap though, that's a normal map.[/QUOTE] Yeah I figured out pretty quickly that it wasn't the right kind of map, but unfortunately, importing the heightmap with Omen would take weeks because I would have to do it in 255x255 segments.
