Custom heightmap problem

CzakóBálint

Hi, I'm new to CityEngine.
I created a custom heightmap and imported it into my scene, but it appears as a flat surface and doesn't convert to a 3D terrain.

I tried several solutions, including raster calculations in QGIS, but nothing worked so far.

Any suggestions on how to properly turn a heightmap into a 3D terrain in CityEngine?
Thanks in advance!

Hello, Thank you for your question,

Please confirm if you have imported a digital elevation model (DEM) as a Terrain import as described here: https://doc.arcgis.com/en/cityengine/latest/help/help-map-layer-terrain.htm 

For the 2 inputs, you may select the DEM for both the heightmap and texture file if you wish to see it represented visually and for the elevation. Or you can also assign a texture file (image/basemap to drape over the heightmap). They must have the same dimensions  as a pair to align properly. 

Please let me know if you require further assistance.
