Hello all,

In my game I want to have different levels of terrain. Thanks to Lord Ikon I know that all I have to do is figure out the height of the map and move the player to that position, but I don't know how to read in the height data from my blender model. If anyone can help, please do. Thanks.

Reading height from a model would probably require reading in all of the vertices, which means you'd have to create your own vertex reader.

I would do a google on heightmaps, or check the tutorial at www.riemers.net. A heightmap can simple take a bitmap file (greyscale is easiest) and use that to create a terrain. With a heightmap, XNA lets you read the color information on the bitmap file and you can use that color value as an elevation or height. Again, the tutorials show this.

Thanks all. I am not up to testing terrain so soon, but thanks for the help so I can use it when I need it☺
