Heightmap

[Healey]

Not sure where to post this but, what do you mean when you talk about heightmap? I'm hoping it has to do with all the hills on the ground, because I would love to change it so its just flat.

I do believe that is the case, yes.
Do correct me if I'm wrong.
It's unpleasant to be wrong.

Like this:
Picture A is the original heightmap, as a .png texture in "Textures".
Picture B is a new one i am using for a mod thats been long underway.

Picture B

the image of the heightmap is grayscale, therefor there are only black and white shades. lighter shades are higher, so when you see an area of white, surrounded by black, you know its a hill. so if you wanted a completely flat one (booooring IMO) you would choose a shade of gray and make the entire 256x256 .png image that shade, then replace the original one in "Textures" with your new one.
