Converting a heightmap into a map.data file

Post by Seegertom » 29 Nov 2017, 17:36

Hey guys,

Could you tell me how I can convert a heightmap(.png,.bmp,.RAW)
into the map.data file format?

Thanks :)

I've started just that, as a PNG using Unity;

Unity 5 - Adding Real World Height Maps To Your Game

All I gotta do now is figure how to use a script to export the Map.data as binary float data.

Then just creating Custom Map and replace the elements for a Custom Created Map.

No coder, so this Map.data bit is taking a bit to figure out, any help from a coder would be handy ;)
