New to region ownership in Kitely so, not sure how to upload a Raw terrain file to my region.
Tried using the Estate Parcel menu inworld-- since the "World Manage" webpage only offered to upload OARS-- but the Raw file did not load to the region.
What to do?

Hi Tadhg,

Is the raw the same size as the world you are loading it into?

Using Alchemy, it's on the World menu, select Region/Estate, then the Terrain tab and Upload RAW terrain... button. And wait patiently :)

Can't comment on FS but Alchemy was fine yesterday. Being impatient and trying to upload again resulted in a viewer error message to the effect that somebody else was mid-upload. Do you get that?

PS: will try FS later.

OK, I just tried FS 4.7.9 on Win 10 with http://5.9.108.75/terrains/sim1d_011.raw (credits: Magnuz Binder) and it worked fine. Might be worth trying that file in case there are any issues with yours.
