Hi all, I come from hong kong and play ttd long time. I see many brother can make a 2048*2048 large map for OTTD, but I dont understand how to do it. Could anyone help me to convert attachment png files to ttd scenarios? Thanks A LOT!

Open up a recent nightly build of OTTD, and click to create a scenario. Then at the bottom click to load hieghtmap. Then select the file. In the options beneath select 2048, and 2048.

I just tried it. I saved the image as .bmp and it works fine. .png apears to work ok, but jpg doesn't.

Wow~! Thanks Ben_Robbins_, I already done a great map, but I still have one question: can I control the sea level higher?
