I can't import height data.

Hi there
I have a problem with the 'Edit Terrain' tool. There is an 'Import' button, and with that you should be able to import heightmaps and apply them to the terrain. Everytime I try to do it this error window pops up (look at the screenshot):

- This is the error window
The heightmap is PNG and the size is 1024X1024 pixels. I have tried with smaller images too, but the same happened.
I'm not sure about what to do, and would be thankful for some help
Thanks

Without facts, the mystery is just a guessing-game

Never mind.
I did not read through the documentations enough. I found out I had to set it to 1025X1025 pixels. Problem solved.

Hi realgaming135,
thanks for your report and the update regarding the solution!
I've still filed a ticket for this (
#145), because the Map Editor should display a useful error message rather than talk about unhandled exceptions in this case. I'll look into this asap, but if anyone else wants to have a look, I'd happily apply any patches or pull requests.

Best regards,
Carsten

Just a quick note: I fixed the related ticket
#145 earlier today. (At this time, you would however have to compile yourself from the latest commit in the
master
branch in order to get it.)
Best regards,
Carsten
