I was wondering if there is anything for Cities:Skylines which allows you to download real-world height maps and bring them into Cities:Skylines. I am aware of terrain.party but for last couple attempts I've had downloading the height maps the read me file always states the following:

"No height map data was available. That's a bummer.

If you're way at the poles, that's probably why. Orbital measurements only go
so far away from the equator.

If this area is filled with water, try a box that has less water. That's
probably a good idea for gameplay reasons anyway.

Otherwise, this could be a problem with terrain.party. Retrying the link above
at a later time might help, or try posting it in the Discuss link for help.

At any rate: there's no height maps here. Sorry!"

Now the location I've used doesn't go against any of the requirements but it still doesn't give me anything. I've tried other cities and it still doesn't work. Could someone please help me.

Downloaded a heightmap for Calapan City, Philippines only five minutes ago and it worked. I hope it'll stay as-is for the rest of the year, I have 30+ cities to be built which is a pain already.
