Unable to import xyz file in terrain Builder (A3 tools)
Posted: Thu Nov 20, 2014 7:42 pm
Hi,
I'm new on forum but experienced on chart referencing (Google Earth / mapcal2) for GPS navigation.
I'm trying to make a Bora Bora map(2048x2048), for Arma3, with L3DT and terrain builder (A3 tools).
I created two jpg files : heightfield and textureMap . Sounds well but 2 problems:
FIRST:
if i close and reopen the projet i get this message :
L3DTio_FI::LoadMapFile error
- Error loading image
CMapGroup::AutoLoadMap error:
- cannot load mipmap file
SECOND:
i failed to import xyz file in terrain builder, probably because Bora Bora is located in Southern hemisphere : 5K in UTM zone.
I dont understand georeferencing in L3DT spending hours for trying LD3T to cope with Terrain builder.
I tried UTM zone 5 and -5 in L3DT georeferencing and also lat/long in degrees...
Creating a mapFrame in terrain builder is easy : zone 5K to be coherent with Google Earth.
But when importing the xyz file created with L3DT, I always get this message :
"Zone of imported data is too far from project reference zone. Data cannot be imported."
Somebody could help me?
Thank you
Pierre
