im getting a bit sick of seing the typical walls made by most ppl so i will share some lore with people, with time i developed my own technique to create walls and even buildings with only the terrain, i attached a map that show you before and after...


Pretty simple here it is....

-----The Technique-----

1. put some cliffs, preferable only 1 lv up... just like if you were making lazy walls

2. organize your wall type by adding some cliffs lvs where you want... <==(harder part)

3. just raise the terrain a bunch

4. use same plateau tool and Voila! its done



-----Explanation in Pictures-----

See the map for complexity

Hope it is helpful ^-^

its aint that bad if you dont overdo it... not like your going to raise it at the max level, and believe me its look better than thoses crappy walls made with cliff and white walls, its actually walkable by units, sure you can do walls with doodads but getting them walkable decently is nearly impossible

I agree with Saboera.

etting nice walls walkable is one of my least favorite parts about making a map.

It takes forever and requires tons of test runs and near perfect precision to get it to look right.

Just do this and cover it with doodads and it could look quite decent.

Awesome technique, but I'm still wondering how you get it to slant like that?
