[?] Any freeware to make 1024 Hieghtmap?

So I've been messing around with Terragen and really digging it. I go to export my file into my map and then I realize that the trial version only allows 512x512 and this wont work for the 1024x1024 I am planning. :\

The question of course is: Is there a non-$89+ option to get a height-map creator?

Have a look at Geocontrol 2, at least give the trial version a go. Look at some tutorials on the BF2Editor Website - https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f388-p ... l-2-a.html

(Link at the bottom of the OP).

Began using it a couple of weeks ago and got the most incredible results - such a powerful program and I highly recommend it.

as a terragen user, I recommend geocontrol more, though I've not tried terragen 2

I'm testing out the GC2 demo and it seems very limited, even compared to GC1... :\ I can't even build terrain.

Also the UI for GC1 seems to be harder for me to map out the terrain I wish instead of terra-gen.
