Re: Easy to use Hightmap Editor

I think you know this problem: you have imported your painted heightmap in the worldeditor and in some places, you have really hard edges, in places, where differents heights come close together. And now you have to smooth it manually in the world editor, what is very annoying job, because the edito...

Re: MetalBeast's first WZ-mapping attempts ;)

Thx for your comments guys :) Sure, the count of oil-ressources is very important for the gameplay. It is the cause, why i do not implement too many of them. We have to test, how many are the best count for this map. At the moment I'm working on the texturing and terrain-shaping. I did set some gate...

Re: Easy to use Hightmap Editor

The benefit of EasyGen is, that you can see your hightmap "live" in 3D. Also you can texture it, to have a kind of map-preview. You can arrange your draft hightmap in any paint-software, import it in easygen, than work on the details in easygen. Espacially good for Mountain chains etc. ;) ...

Re: A little something I am working on

Looks good, I like your style.
Do you have any problems with edge brush, or are you texturing the whole map manually ?

Re: 32 bit windows map editor issue cause im a noob at this

Ok, I read all the posts once again, but still do not know how to set the editor for using 128, 128 with tileset2 and 3. If I try to load tileset2 or the I receive this error(see screen), any ideas ?

Re: 32 bit windows map editor issue cause im a noob at this

The edge-brush problem seems to be related to the desert-tileset(C1). With the two other tilesets and texturesize 64, I have no problems. What I do not understand, in both tutorials we can read, the texture size must be set to 128 for each session, but doing this for tileset2 and tileset3 prevent yo...

Re: 32 bit windows map editor issue cause im a noob at this

OK, I found workaround how to use Edge-Brushes. If I start new map, I can use edge-brush, but if I load, my saved map, choosing EB leads the editor to CTD. :rolleyes: So, I have to start new map, choose the brush I want to use, than load my map. Anyway, if a saved map is loaded, choosing EB is not p...
