Is there anyone out there to tell me why when I use a .tga file to produce a
heightfield, I see a flat plane instead of mountains and valleys?
Thanks in advance

If it were an improper file format of if Pov were unable to find
it an error would be returned to that effect and the render would stop.

Hi SWIFT ETEBA, you recently wrote in moray.win:

Only thing I can think of is that the waterlevel is too high, the
heightfield is scaled too small in Z, the TGA file has very little
contrast.
Does Moray show the heightfield as flat, too?

Yes! Moray shows the heightfield flat.
I will try for a different value in Z.
Thanks.

Yes! I altered the Z factor.
Nothing! Always flat

If you will send me the tga file I will examine it for you and let you know
if it contains bad data or no data at all.
