Hey everyone, I got a crator clip file from 3DGuys neat scrip but I dont get how to use it, I went to insert clip file and selected the file but it didn't do any thing. What am I missing?

Zoom out the node view a bit, you'll see the imported nodes there. With settings they're just out of view. Then just connect the imported nodes to the compute terrain or node of your preference. I've added a screenshot to the script's page which demonstrates this.

Strange. Should work. Post the tgc file and I'll see if there's anything wrong with it.

I think I have identified the problem with the clipfile :P
Don't save the page as a file, instead click in the page, press CTRL+A and copy paste the text to a new clipfile. It seems that when saving the page it requests the page again from the generator, but then the variables get lost and you end up with an empty clipfile. I'll update the instructions on the script's page to reflect this.
