How do you make sheer cliffs?

How do you make those cliffs that drop straight down like in COTN? Other threads on this topic were of no help to me :\
Any help would be enormously appretiated! :>

I think in UMWE you can use the apply height and the apply cliff.

Whats the UMWE? :\

It's the UMS World Editor. You can find it in the downloads section under tools. I don't know what UMS stands for though.

UMS stands for "Use Map Settings". Also, you don't need a custom editor to make those cliffs. Just download this file, create a new folder in your war3 folder called "UI", and place the file in that folder. Then reopen your world editor and you should be able to use the raise terrain tool to get really high cliffs.

Download this:
Miscdata.txt

eep!
when i click it, it says "cannot find file" and it asks me if i want to create a new one. when i click yes, it just shows me an empty notepad document :\

well yeah i couldnt get the note pad to work on mine so i got UMSWE 4 ...anyway when you do figure out how to do it heres what you do:

1. raise the terrain with a size one brush

2. at the tip of the raised terrain use the plateau tool the move the cursur

3. there u go

NOTE you might want to use the smoth tool afterwards otherwise it will strech the tile and make it look bad

good luck i hope this helps [GLOW=COLOR=BLUE] :D [/GLOW]

UMSWE is on the home page, u cant miss it.

is there anyway to make these cliffs with the normal TFT editor? i dont really want a diff editor..

That file doesn't work right? Well try this one then. Same file, different thread.

Download this

And then just go through the procedure above. Once you've dont that, you should be able to do this:



BTW, Murcielago, using a larger size brush for the raise terrain stuff is way faster than using a size one. I hope you didn't do all your terrain with a size one brush... I cringe for you... that would have taken a frikkin long ass time.

lol no kiding............ i just used the size one to get it up the i use a large plateau size to make the rest. that was for the near 90* angle...

i do b cuz the size one is way sharper..... then i do the smoth tool......


i'd have to be insane to do that.........[GLOW=COLOR=BLUE=STRENGTH=5] ^_^[/GLOW]

ARG!! it still says "do you want to create a new file" and its just a blank notepad doc :( whats actually in the miscdata file? lotsa text?

????????????????? what do you mean????? o_O o_O o_O i got it just fine...

i click on the link to the miscdata.txt file and it sends me an error message saying cannot find file or something and it asks me if i want to create a new file. if i click no, it doesnt do anything, if i click yes, it creates a blank notepad document titled miscdata.txt

what am i doing wrong??? :\

hummmm try right clicking on the link then click on save target as. that should save the file :D
