What do you use to create your terrain?

Crocopede, how do you convert your hgt files into raw, or are you finding another format for SRTM? The reason I ask, is that I’m having trouble importing landscape mesh. I export hgt data in 3DEM into a BIN/RAW 32-bit floating point, then open that file in photoshop, and change the mode to 16 bits and save it as a PNG/RAW file. I end up with spikes everywhere when I import. I know the data is clean as I can import the same BIN/RAW into 3DS and it creates a great looking mesh. I’ve tried opening a 16bit integer BIN/RAW file (created in 3DEM) in photoshop but it doesn’t display correctly.

I used MicroDem in the past for this but found using earthexplorer from USGS to be a bit quicker. Although the resolutions aren’t always super great
