Utility > Reload: Updating Terrain

After you edit any texture in your own image editor, you can immediately refresh the result in EarthSculptor with the Utility - Reload feature.

Utilizing External Image Editor and Updating Terrain Project

Take Colormap as an example, if you wish to produce a terrain with color pattern or words, the Paint tools can never achieve that goal. Utilizing an external image editor is the best solution.

  1. Please access Utility / Explore in menu bar to locate the project file.

  2. Open the <file name>_c.png in an supported image editor.

  3. Edit the image and save.

  4. In EarthSculptor, access Utility / Reload Textures and load the edited image. (for Detailmap, Colormap and Detailmap)

    As for Heightmap, you must access Import / Heightmap image instead.

Note:

  • Please refer to Utility > Explore: Tracking Project Maps for more information about the relationships between the terrain project and its related image files.
