I need to know if it is possible to put a custom tileset into a map. Is it possible to mess with the texture, to make it look more futuristic, etc? And if its possible, is it able to be played online? Thats all I wanted to know

Yes, you can patch terrain textures in the map just as you can patch anything else.

Use Zepir's Map Edito, It allows you to make a map wth the whole bunch of terrain textures in the game (even the value exceeds 12). Yeah

Useful for RPG (I make some with almost 30 tiles)

YEAH:D

Where can I get that editor? And how does it work? Is it a patch for the map editor, or a seperate program, or what?

Zepir is a moderator in War 3 Pub , so I guess I downloaded the file from there.

It's a third party program (it's pretty much like paint) but it allows you to do powerful things like editing pahing, shadows and, in my case, making 480x480 maps with 30 tiles, so I can make from Mordor to Wonderland in one map. It has a bug with cliffs, thought, if U make a map based on Lordaeron Summer it only has Lordaeron Summer's two cliff types, even if there are like 8 shown (don't work right)

Have fun :p

Yes, agreed. Tileset making takes time, talent, and a lot of patience.

.....the downloads part of war3pub isnt working. I cant get in to it and see the downloads available. Shoot, and I was gettin close.....But i think i know how to make a tileset easy. Ill just take a terrain texture from starcraft, and call it a high tech textile. I hope it works the same on war3.

meh, screw making tilesets, i just want to know these 3 things.

1.) how to add more than 8 textiles.
2.) do they work on previously built maps? so that i dont have to redo my work
3.) do maps with extra textiles work on battle.net?

I just need clarification. Im really confused at this point.
