    Hello,

    How to properly add a heightmap into the map editor?
    Is there any up to date tutorial on how to add a heightmap to a new map? I followed every tutorial I could find but I am not able to add a new heightmap into the game.

    apparently this is not working anymore:


    My heightmap is 4096x4096 pixels large. I want it to be the same size in Game, so 4x4km.
    Choosing a heightmap png file from the same folder as the map is not possible since I cannot choose from a zip file, but it wont show me the map ingame if it is not a zip file in the mods folder.

    And there is a lot of confusion about the correct naming and placing of the heightmap png file. I matched the names of the png with the descriptions in the name.terrain.json file, not working.

    Is anyone able to explain the process? Help is very much appreciated!

    edit: when creating a blank terrain, the ground is not solid, player car falls through the ground... What is wrong here?
