>"Yeah, im trying raise/lower Doodads, but still doesnt work..."

I have no idea why it doesnt't work. You could try to get the latest patch but I don't think that this feature came with a patch.

patch lol i dont think so, did u try not using ctrl? just a guess i dont hav w3 available at the moment

 

[2-P]

Eh... yeah thanks. But please don't double, triple, quintuple post or whatever, some people don't like to see that.
And the post count isn't that important after all. ^_^

 

[SuperSoldier]

heh sry
u never answered my quetion how long did it take u to make the cave

 

[2-P]

Oops, sorry. The one for the tutorial took me about 30 minutes, but it's only pretty rough (the stones are very big).
A better looking cave of that size would probably take at least an hour. ^^

That has to be the most useful WE tutorial I've read so far, and I've read a lot of tutorials.

Can I request a city-building tutorial please?

...and, hang on, my sky is black in the cinematic sequences in my map (the only time the sky is visible).

And the sky in WE is always just blue, no matter what I change it to in Preferences.

And, while I'm asking, my fog looks nothing like the yellow fog in your tutorial pics. In fact, I can't work out how you got the screenshots you did - are they in-game?

Anyway, thanks to anyone who can help.

Well, firstly, not all the skies react to terrain fog. Second, to turn sky on in-game, you need to use the 'set sky' trigger action (or jass equivalent, of course)

 

[Small Chips]

Excellent, it's all working now.

Thanksalot

Good Tutorial!


One thing, I cant get the Miscdata to work. Do I make a new file called UI?
Yes, Im using the raise/lower tool.

You have to make a new folder called UI inside your Warcraft folder.

Let's say your Warcraft folder has the path: C:\Program Files\Warcraft III

Then the UI folder should have the path: C:\Program Files\Warcraft III\UI

At last, you have to copy the MiscData inside the UI folder.

I think that rather basic stuff since I learned nothing new. Quite good tutorial notheless, it's well and logically structured and easy to understand. The river in the end looks a bit bad though. Instead of hiding the edges with doodads I advice to make the waterfall slightly wider than that the channel and then sinking the waterfall so deep, that the edges will go underground. Also, if you change the pitch angle to -1.20 or so, You will have to use lot fewer doodads for the river. This reduces lag and looks better since the water ramps more naturally.

pheonixashes: World Editor Unlimited can do the same, it would be propably easier to get that. It has other benefits too.
