Hi all,
Does anyone know how to determine sea level in the Skyrim ESM? I've think I've managed to extract the Digital Elevation Model used for Skyrim, but I don't know where the coastline goes.

Re: Extracting Skyrim maps from the ESM files
Actually... i just thought of something...
Go down to the beach and drop an item right on the edge between water and coast
then go into console and select the item and type "getpos z" (as in: get position - z axis). That will give you a number. I HOPE that it's offset from the bottom of the game world and not just 0. lol
Also - It could be x, or y as well... I can't recall and I'm not at home to try it - just do "getpos y" then offset it with "setpos y ####" where number is 1 higher than what ouput in getpos y. See which way it moves - then you know the right one.
