For those of you who don't use special editors, all you need to do it put this file in the 'UI' folder in your wc3 directory (just create a UI folder if none exists). Then just put the below text file in it. There, now raise the terrain higher than you could before.

Oh really? Try to open regular TFT then and raise the terrain really high. Then try to do it my way.

When you mean "Really High Terrain" you mean using the Raise tool on UMSWE and getting cliffs, like in heart of evil.

This .txt file is for people that aren't using UMSWE.

If you really want high terrain, and aren't going to have water anywhere, then lower the entire map to the very minimum, (You'll know when the terrain suddenly zaps up to the top, just hit undo once) and then you can raise it really really really really high. Great for Mountains or some huge natural (or if you have the right tileset, a manmade Tower).

Here's what I slapped together as an example. Note the normal elevation in the background, and the shop and gryphon to show the scale.

My maps have really high terrain. But especially, they have really high people.

Why is it that I can never get my terrain to rise that fast, or get that tall?
Draco it didn't work, what path address is it suppose to go through?

this doesnt work for me... I created a UI folder in my WC directory and put it in there... doesnt work, whenever I create a cliff, it always pyramids it, or adds extra cliff next to it.

For the last time: Use the raise tool and then the plateau on a high part of it.
