Post by Quicksilver »

Note you, not JUST a simple map... I know how to use the "Save BMP" feature in CATE, thank you very much. :D )

If you must save BMP with ALTITUDE colors, then yes your explained system is correct.

CATE does not save bitmap colors for altitudes, only for tiles.

I had to do similiar thing when Red Dog requested those kneemap source files from ODS, Afghanistan and Balkans.

All right then, thanks SM.

A few more finishing touches such as this, and we'll soon be ready to make our first official announcement, along with a first beta version... ;)
