As of May 2, 2018, it is no longer possible to create or edit terrain, or upload terrain height maps in Sansar. Existing terrain objects (created using the terrain tool or by uploading a height map) have been replaced with a flat, red plane as a placeholder asset.
Terrain generation alternatives
It is still possible to generate terrain as a 3D object and import it to Sansar. Here are some alternative tools to generate terrain objects for your scenes in Sansar.
| Note: The polygon count for a 32mx32m piece of terrain should not exceed 5000 triangles. |
