The 3D Map Generator – Terrain needs at least Photoshop CC-2014 or newer. It cannot be installed with any previous version.
The 3D Map Generator – Terrain is language independent and can be installed with every language version of Photoshop. The interface is always in English as shown.
Creating a 3D map with the 3D Map Generator – Terrain can take 15 min or more, depending on the map size and the performance of your computer. Follow the advices in the help file to optimize the process.
The 3D Map Generator – Terrain can be used on both PC and Mac. Please mind the minimum requirements for performance.
Generally every map size is possible. But the processing time (rendering time) and the map size depends on the performance and the hard-disk space of your computer. All provided textures and brushes are optimized on a basic shape or grayscale heightmap size of 1000×1000 up to 1500×1500 px.
Grayscale Heightmap services: All suggested heightmap services are not part of the 3D Map Generator – Terrain. They are just options for getting a grayscale heightmap. There is no guarantee of availability or functionality. The available heighmaps for most areas have a maximum zoom factor of 14z-15z. This is approximately equal to a height of 5,000m – 7,000m.
You can NOT export the maps to any other 3D apps (like 3D Max, Cinema 4D or Blender. You can NOT 3D-print the maps.
