Title: Sequential DEM files
Post by: ethan on February 07, 2010, 06:17:11 PM
Anybody know if TG allows for sequential DEM, TER, or image map files to play frame by frame over time? Looking for a way to load in sequential DEMs to show an evolving landform.

Thanks

I "think" yo can do it in the same way that image sequences are saved.
In your load dialogue append your file with .%04d.dem so your file will look like "yourdem.%04d.dem", "yourtiff.%04d.tiff" or "yourter.%04d.ter".
I know this works with bitmaps, not so sure about .dems or .ters. You could always convert them to tiffs anyway I guess.

Let us know if this works :)
