How do you create a heightmap in blender and export it correctly? I have created the landscape, put the camera in position to fully cover it, and linked the composite and render layers node with a normalize node. That is where I am stuck. I am not sure what to do from there. I would greatly appreciate any help!
UV unwrap it.
create a material like this
you might need to adjust the Z value with some “Math” nodes or “color ramp” so it covers everything in the range between the 0 and 1.
You need to select the newly created image texture and then you bake it.
You need to be in the cycles render engine for that.
if anything is unclear you can look up more info about baking textures or nodes
