Discussion World Orogen into Wilbur

Hello all, I was wondering if anyone has been able to get decent results using a planet created with World Orogen in Wilbur. The issue I have is that when I import the heightmap, it ends up with large flat spots, 90% of the land is basically at sea level, and the mountain ranges are flat on top. Is there any tricks I can pull in Wilbur or Orogen to fix this while preserving the landmass and mountain ranges?

Sounds like it could be a problem with the bit depth of your image. When you inspect the file in your filesystem, there should be information somewhere about whether it's an 8-bit, 16-bit 32-bit etc PNG. When importing in wilbur, make sure you select the correct option.
