Hey guys,
I'm still working on my first track but I have a problem understanding the following parameters :

size_x = 500
size_z = 500
scale = 10


I saw the scale is modifying the height, but I don't understand how to find the correct value. And what are x and y params ?
After creating my heigtmap, jumps are not too hight but they are too steep and backflips are out.

Some informations would be appreciated :) thanks !

x and z are horizontal in meters, and scale is height in meters (to the whitest point of the heightmap)..

It's really just a case of playing with the values until you find the good spot.

Unless you are doing a replica, in which case I suggest taking to google earth to get proper measurements of your track area, and you can also find height.

Thank you, now it should be easier.
