Reset terraforming

[wa55a]

Hello there
I did some insane terraforming to some of my fields, and now I'm wondering if there's any possible way to reset this, or is it just the hard way?

You just learned how not to do it. :) In the future, turn off auto save, and make a manual save before doing anything in contruction mode. You could even go as far as making a copy of the save file. Currently there is no un do in construction mode as far as teraforming and planting trees.

if you want to reset all terrain height back to default for the map, you can copy the map_dem.png file from your install directory at \FarmingSimulator22\data\maps\MAPNAME\data, where MAPNAME is replaced by mapAlpine, mapFR, or mapUS depending on which map you are playing. if it is a mod map, map_dem.png will be in the zip in \maps\data.

copy this map_dem.png file into your save game folder, delete the existing file terrain.heightmap.png and rename your copied map_dem.png file to terrain.heightmap.png.

make sure you make a backup of your save before doing this!

you could also try directly editing the terrain.heightmap.png in your save game folder if you are feeling adventurous, but you'll need an editor that can work in and save as 16 bit grayscale, like the free image editor GIMP, or you'll end up with some really weird terrain. its really hard to work with since the gradual shifts between color values are hard to discern, but you could copy a section from the default map's map_dem.png and paste it over a mistake in the save game's terrain.heightmap.png if you just wanted to revert a section.

There should be a mod in the hub that let you build and paint for free and whitout limitations, give it a try.
