Questions about Maps

#1 .mis is the objects in the map

.ter is the terrain

You can use a bitmap as a heightfield, but I havn't heard of exporters for other games terrain. You may be able to use other BSP shapes as interiors, probably depends on what the other game uses.

#2 Terragen exports .ter format does anyone know if this works in torque?

#3 I'm going to venture that .ter is a common file extention among terrain engines.

I doubt they are interchangable. :)

#4 Nope--not interchangeable.

Create your terrain in terragen, then save it. I believe teragen saves it in 257x257 format, so resize it to 256x256 in your fave paint program. Save it in the heightscripts folder as a PNG or JPG, then load it in the terrain editor (under the Bitmap option).
