How to create Earth with FT3+
Once upon a time we were able to use height maps from NOAA with FT to create real world maps but since NOAA no longer produces the files in a compatible format and with the release of FT 3+ I have yet to find a way to create a real Earth map in FT3+.
What is the magic I am missing here? Anybody got a series of steps I can use to create Earth with FT3+?

Fractal Terrains 3 header format with ETOPO1 — ProFantasy Community Forum might be of assistance. The ETOPO1 file mentioned is still available for download, but it's through http rather than https, so your browser may complain a little when you request it.
The zip file in that post contains a FLT file and a HDR file no BIN file
Change the FLT extension to BIN and it worked
