Hi, How do you import a height map to create terrain? My project is an actual place. I've found what looks like a tutorial but I can't figure out how to use the page or where the tutorial is http://www.sidefx.com/exchange/display.php?author=adam_glazier [sidefx.com]

Here is an example using the Color Map [sidefx.com] VOP. You can use the luminance of an image and move it up in Y, or displace along the normal. In the displaced geometries, I use the color from the image to set Cd rather than display the texture map itself.

Hope that helps!
