Small Glitch in Height Map Editor

[Horred the Plague]

When DLTCEP adds the entry #14 to the height map, it does this with a color of 32.32.32. When it reads a hegiht map, it defines #14 as 218.218.218. Logically the 218.218.218 would be correct, but these are the game makers that included the typo reading of 54.57.57 as part of the 4-bit map.

 

So, which is the correct color entry for height #14?

Well, i see these values: 0,15,30,.....210,225 when dltcep generates the height map palette.

I just changed it so it will be 0,16,32,.... 240

I think, the "normal" height map value should be 128.

This is entry #8 in the original height maps.

Is it correct to say that as long as it remains a 4-bit file the color RGB itself is not as important as the degree of non-neutrality (variance from greyscale base)? Black Isle demonstrated that greyscale is not needed with their entry of 54.57.57. For neatness and concentricity I agree with your new ordering of 0,16,32,etc greyscale as a modder base--just wondering how much these levels can be manipulated by the user, especially in a freehand (non-generated) map.
