Hi everyone,

I have been playing with Advanced terrain and noticed that the command "Get TERRAIN Ground Height" does not work as expected (or at least like the Matrix version. I always get zero height returned.
Terrain displays, and I swan a camera above the terrain, but when i move the camera, it appears at Ground height zero....
I am using a heightmap and a texture (no details though), so is this the problem?


sample code of the functions i am using attached.

thanks

thanks pcRaider,

stepping though your code and my code I found the reason.

"Automatic Camera Collision PlayerCamera, PlayerCollisionRadius, 0"

Apparently the collision I had was bumping the camera below the terrain level after the first collision.

thanks.
