Hi Hoi,
It looks like you've got a dodgy file I/O plugin there.
Can you please send me the logfile? (to
aaron@bundysoft.com) You can access it from the start menu under 'All programs->Bundysoft->L3DT [version]->L3DT log file'. With this file, I should be able to work out what has gone wrong.
Best regards,
Aaron.

Hi Hoi,
Thanks for the logfile. From the log I can see that you were trying to load an OBJ file in L3DT. However, the OBJ plugin doesn't support loading; it is only for exporting OBJ files. This is the cause of the errors in the log.
L3DT can load heightfields in the following formats:
- BMP
- JPG
- PNG
- PGM
- PCX
- RAW
- TER (Terragen)
- BT (Virtual Terrain Project)
- HFF/HF2/HFZ (L3DT)
- SMF/SD7 (Spring)
Best regards,
Aaron.

Then that must be a bug.
Do you know of any way to get a .obj or any other 3d file into a format so that l3dt can load it?

Yes, but I mean, tht if l3dt cant load .obj, he might know of some other program which converts 3d files to a format which is readable for l3dt.

l3dt is a terrain generation program... Premise does not compute.

If you want to convert an .obj into a height map then the easiest method is to just render it. Use an orthogonal projection and apply a linear gradient texture to the landscape which is white at highest point of the landscape and black at the lowest point. Most 3D modeling packages should be capable of this. Blender can probably do it.
And no, it doesn't make sense for L3DT to import an .obj file directly. A height map is 2D but an .obj file contains 3D data.

Right you are. The next release will only list file formats that support the load operation in the import dialog. Thanks for the bug report.
Cheerio,
Aaron.
