What if I already have a map file?

Bug Reports
#1

If I already have a map drawn up as a (rather large) bitmap, can i use world machine to take that map and make it in to a terrain?

#2

You must use a File Input device, but it doesn’t support BMP format… You should save it in a format that WM handles : TGA, or 32bit RAW.
Or you can also use another program that handles both BMP and TER formats, then you would need to save the map to TER format, and import the TER file with WM…

You may find the macro “Mask bound plus” to be useful: http://forum.world-machine.com/viewtopic.php?t=105
