Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity Original Sin - Mods Terrain - Heightmaps

Hello everyone

I was wondering if the ability to import heightmaps for terrain is
planned?

I find the results of building a terrain with a special app (eg. worldmaker) alot more pleasing to the eye, than using terrain sculpting tools. Some apps also provide the function of tailor-fitting your textures to the terrain. Not only does this save alot of time, the results often look spectacular.

I'm not sure if these features are planned, or even within the scope of the editor. But these would be very nice features to have.

Any thoughts?

I would also like to have that functionality, but seeing as the editor is quite a closed system right now, it might take a while for Larian to build in such abilities. My thoughts are positive that it will happen though

I asked about this in a Twitch stream long ago and Swen went back and forth a little in his head and ultimately thought it should be possible because they did it with Dragon Commander and were using the same technology underneath. I would love to see this too, hopefully they have a tool or plugin to make it happen.
