terrain file format

by Jared Hoberock · in Torque Game Engine · 01/29/2002 (3:56 pm) · 3 replies

Are there any sites out there which have documentation on the terrain (*.ter) file format? Specifically, I need to know how to take a greyscale image and write it out to the format used in the v12 engine.

thanks,
J

Note: this is Terragen's .ter format, not Torque's--

The code that writes the terrain files to disk is pretty simple. :) It's so nice having source code!

FILE: engine/terrain/terrData.cc
LINE: 1154
FUNC: bool TerrainFile::save(const char *filename)
