I do not want my heightmaps being mostly black just for water

what do you mean heightmaps being mostly black for water? do you want your minumum ground level to be land? you can set min height in the map creation menu

jaunty compass what do you mean heightmaps being mostly black for water? do you want your minum...

The fact i cant change the height for water

#

i think its 0 by default

#

id rather be able to set it myself

#

so at like 300 or 50 ect ect

jaunty compass Jul 24, 2024, 2:04 AM

#

is that for the sea level?

#

or like the post illumi referred to

mystic lake Jul 24, 2024, 2:04 AM

#

sea level

tough crypt Jul 24, 2024, 2:04 AM

#

just make the heightmap a bit darker

mystic lake Jul 24, 2024, 2:05 AM

#

because its a pain in the ass to get water where i want it in my heightmap generation software

tough crypt Jul 24, 2024, 2:05 AM

#

what software do you use

mystic lake Jul 24, 2024, 2:05 AM

#

World Machine

#

its node based

#

tough crypt Jul 24, 2024, 2:08 AM

#

i see

#

would the height of the water not always be 0, because the altitude is based on sea level

#

you can increase or decrease based on how much water you want there

#

if you want deeper water than what is available, ask for having water deeper than -80 meters

#

for me i just use heighmap gen of the world cause the terrain in earth is interesting enough

#

getting good heightmaps is more cancerous than asbestos

#

though it is usually good once you get a good map

jaunty compass Jul 24, 2024, 2:13 AM

#

i like british columbia for good mountians

#

cities with hills is also good

tough crypt Jul 24, 2024, 2:13 AM

#

it always comes up with so many little white pixels or varying normalization levels

#

AHH

#

youre using that site lmao

tough crypt Jul 24, 2024, 2:14 AM

#

it usually works out eventually though, its just so cancerous

jaunty compass Jul 24, 2024, 2:14 AM

#

this one works even though its for city skylines

tough crypt Jul 24, 2024, 2:14 AM

#

jaunty compass youre using that site lmao

i used two different sites

jaunty compass Jul 24, 2024, 2:14 AM

#

theres one ive seen constantly doing that

tough crypt Jul 24, 2024, 2:15 AM

#

that maxes out at 70KMs

#

i think

jaunty compass Jul 24, 2024, 2:16 AM

#

it doesnt matter cause scale

tough crypt Jul 24, 2024, 2:16 AM

#

jaunty compass theres one ive seen constantly doing that

tangrams or manticorp

jaunty compass Jul 24, 2024, 2:16 AM

#

tangram thats it

tough crypt Jul 24, 2024, 2:16 AM

#

jaunty compass it doesnt matter cause scale

it does for the purposes i need them

jaunty compass Jul 24, 2024, 2:16 AM

#

oh well

tough crypt Jul 24, 2024, 2:16 AM

#

jaunty compass it doesnt matter cause scale

thats still really bad imo, the river is a lighter shade than black, and theres a little spot which is black

#

which would make the river either be really shallow or above water

jaunty compass Jul 24, 2024, 2:17 AM

#

cause the river is not deep irl?

#

also i adjust the min height accordingly

#

han river is only 10m deep

#

anyways its going off topic
