Terrain Texture Shader released

Interesting... if I could make it work. I have my tiff elevation maps in greyscale, yet it refuses to import, because they are not "16 or 32 bits per pixel", even though they are...

I need to re-phrase that error message to "16 or 32 bits per channel".

My guess is that your grayscale TIFF is ARGB with 8-bits per channel (32-bits total per pixel).

If you would like, you may send me a link to the TIFF file and I will verify it.

The reason for the message is that 8-bits per channel will not produce acceptable results with texture shading -- instead it will have a terraced look, or possibly end up looking like a contour map.
