    Hi , I have imported a map 20x10 k from Wilbur , in FT as binary file but the result seems to be only a plain teal image... is it not working?

    FT cannot handle a file larger than about 1GB in size.

    I tried to rescale in wilbur the map from 20k to 16 k , as Is the same size I outputed from FT in the beginning , but whenever I do that in wilbur I get a teal image as well.

    I also tried to import a rescaled heightmap in wilbur and resaved as mdr , but yet FT doesnt read even if the size is under 1 gb.

    Actually trying to open all and every one of the mdr files gives me always the same results, even if those are direct outputs of FT ... perhaps I am doing something wring in importing?

    Ok I have seen that in the binary file dialogue that says top = -90 and bottom = 90. I changed those to 90 and -90 and now I have an image in FT.
    But its upverted, meaning that the Sea is read as land and the land as sea ...

    You will need to flip the image vertically in Wilbur before loading it into FT as described in the "There and back again" tutorial.
