Hi guys,
I wanted to ask whether one of the developers could add to the ImageBasedHeightMap class a calculateHeight(r,g,b) method. I once talked with @Sploreg about it but it somehow got lost and it was commented out afterwards and I dont know why :(.
Right now, if I want my own inherited heightmap class that calculates the heights differently I also have to write down the whole load()-functionality which is very uncomfortable. At the moment the code
[java]
float grayscale = (float) ((0.299 * red + 0.587 * green + 0.114 * blue) * dampen);
heightData[index++] = grayscale;
//heightData[index++] = calculateHeight(red,green,blue);
[/java]
are found at lines 225, 239, 258,272.
Just remove the “//” tags, the two lines before that and add the following method to the class:
[java]
public float calculateHeight(float red, float green, float blue)
{
return (float) ((0.299 * red + 0.587 * green + 0.114 * blue) * dampen);
}[/java]
Because if now one inherits the class one only has to override this one method to accomplish a different height calculation. Would be really great if someone would do me this favor 
Cheers and thx
Done and in SVN.
Sorry for the late response, apparently I’m not getting email notifications for @mention tags …
Thanks Dodikles
Yay, thx
