 Our example is made for BIS terrain Chernarus, its 15360 x 15360 resolution satellite image and its PNG file list is 1024 PNG's long. Other terrains have various sizes and you have to adjust this tutorial accordingly. Our example is made for BIS terrain Chernarus, its 15360 x 15360 resolution satellite image and its PNG file list is 1024 PNG's long.

But, it works. For example Photoshop CS6 does not save large PNG image with RGB color to PNG (it loads indexed, but doesn'​t save RGB).+
