flooding water

i'm curious if anyone knows how to flood someplace with water, as seen in the campaign

could you maybe show a screen shot of that so i can figure out what they did or tell me the campaign and senerio it was on??? like for example UNDEAD - 07


The advice i can give you is open up the map in the mpq and see what they did.

There is a doodad, called rising water or something. That's probably what your looking for. I can't remember where it was, but try looking in the water category of all tilesets.

Its weird i found the doodad you were talking about but you can't use it. I tried to tell it to select in editor and it would come up blank... Not only that but when i copied it and try to select that they wouldn't come up in editor... For that matter you couldn't even see there name listed in editor i had to switch to object editor to see it.... Any one know why?

its one of those things they only wanted to use in the campaign

u can get it in a round-about way by getting the model, but u only get that one shape of rising water too

Strange.. For me it just worked rightaway.

yes, i found the rising water doodad, but is there a way to make the color of the doodads water, the color of the water in the map, for example red like lava?

Go into the object doodad editor and change it's tinting color.
-D

is this some kind of flooding water u were searching for ?

sorry.. but i pressed the submit button instead of browse =/

No, he's looking for the flooding water doodad, that is just water without heights.
