Python tool designed to process and convert Metin2 game map files into a unified heightmap in 16-bit grayscale PNG format. This tool is great for people looking to integrate Metin2 maps into different game engines or any other applications that require complete heightmap for the terrain.
- Converts RAW heightmap files to 16-bit Grayscale PNG images.
- Automatically calculates the grid dimensions of the map from the subfolder structure.
- Combines individual sub-heightmaps according to the map's grid layout to form a complete heightmap.
- Optional padding: Adds padding to the heightmap to achieve a 1:1 aspect ratio, automatically selecting the closest recommended resolution to ensure optimal compatibility with game engines like Unreal Engine.
- Python 3.6 or higher
- OpenCV library for Python (
cv2) - Numpy library
To use the tool, you need to have a folder which contains the original Metin2's map files. Keep in mind that it should be located within this script's root directory.
This file acts as the entry point for the tool. It handles user inputs and initiates the heightmap generation process.
You can simply double-click on the main.py file or navigate to the script directory in your command line interface and execute the following command:
python main.py
You will be prompted to enter the name of the Metin2 map folder and whether you want to add padding to achieve a 1:1 ratio. The script will then process the heightmaps and output a single file named 'generated_heightmap.png' in the script's directory.
