You will get a zip with several hightmaps of different resolutions. You just move the grid over an area you like and click download. What I do these days is use this nifty tool to grab real world terrain data. IE find a hightmap, or a picture you can convert into a hightmap. Your only hope is to basically start with alot of the work done for you. The problem with this however is that try as you might, the result will be to 3d terrain as a 5 year olds finger paintings are to fine art (# and child-like). Once your used to your own editor itl be easier.įancy terrain editors like world-machine will generate things nicely but I tried to use it and it was just far to complex for my simple mind.įor those of us sat in the mud with just rocks to play with, we have to resort to scapeing terrain by hand which again, basically all editors will let you do. For example a nicely proportioned mountain in your editor may translate into a slight bump in Wurm meaning all your mountains need to be exaggerated in the editor etc. It will take a lot of playing around with because I generally find due to scaling differences, what looks nice in a 3d editor does not always translate to looking nice in game.

Any 3d terrain editing software that lets you export a hightmap to 16bit png (all of them) can be used. Once you know this, a world of possibilities open up. Its also important to realize that any image can be used - you only have to convert it to greyscale and export it as a 16bit png file (of the correct size). Its also useful for chopping and changing bits - say you like an island in one pic and a continent in another, you can cut and paste them into a single image. For example if you want to uniformly increase the height of the entire map then just turn the image brightness up a bit. However it is important to remember that you can always slap your hightmap into an image editor in order to make changes. While this is possible, the results will be horrific as you wont really be able to visualize your elevations or get the same quality of gradation. This means you can open up photoshop or even ms paint, create a black background of the map size you want and draw your map on to it in shades of grey and white. The darker the area, the lower the elevation. So what exactly is a highmap? Its literally just a greyscale image (16bit.

Player locations are not marked on the map.

The co-ordinates around the edges provide a fast method of describing a location to someone who may not have the same annotations.

Use the drop-down on the right to swap between the different server types. Clicking on one server will allow closer inspection of that map. Selecting the globe button will provide an overview of the server group, showing all islands attached along with their crossing locations. This can also be accessed by right clicking on the map. Selecting the button again will zoom out. Useful if there are more than one annotation in a small area. Using the magnifying glass, in the middle-right upper portion of the map, it is possible to get a closer view of the map, although it will not clarify the terrain, it will bring a portion of the map into focus. It is possible to filter out any annotations made on the map by using the middle-left upper toggle buttons. To delete an annotation simply right click on its icon and select Remove annotation. Enter the name of the annotation, select an icon and hit OK. To make an annotation right click in the position the note is to be made and select from one of the annotation types.

These can only be viewed by that character.

private, which are annotations which a player may themselves make to a map.

This is not the village which the character belongs but one of the locations, kingdom dependant, where one would spawn should they die.

fixed, which display the home or spawn towns for the local server.

The only initial annotations are that of the spawn towns for the local server, marked by a pink house symbol. The default map displayed is that of the server that current character is on.
