Error importing terrain data from a text file in Designer Pro

Question

Attempting to import terrain data from a text file in Designer Pro shows the following error:

..\source\importterrainwizard.cpp(381): Warning #272032042

“An error was found on line 1 while parsing the file.”

Answer

When importing a text file containing a list of x,y,z values for levels/points on your site, be sure the file is saved as an ‘ANSI’ txt file. You can do this in Notepad in the Save-as dialog.

If you have saved as ‘Unicode’ you will get an error message such as the following:

..\source\importterrainwizard.cpp(381): Warning #272032042

“An error was found on line 1 while parsing the file.”
