Hello,
Okay being that I rather enjoy editors usually more than the game they came from I am jumping right into the editor to try to recreate a section of Southern California where I grew up as a child some 40+ years ago.
My one big stumbling block is that I need to make 1/3rd of the map all higher than the other 2/3rds. I'm trying to make it as a smooth flat land on the 1/3rd raised area that then slopes down into the other 2/3rd of the map but I can't seem to find any way of doing that in the editor thus far.
I thought "okay, i guess i'll have to do it manually" however when i try to raise the landscape of the 1/3rd of the map i don't find anything that will simply let me raise the map, (or lower the other 2/3rd of the map) I can only seem to expand my cursor to 100% which is obviously tiny in comparison to the entire map and does not make a nice flat plateau which would make things easy if I could simply plateau the 1/3rd of the map and then just go in and smooth out the one side that leads down to the lower 2/3rds of the map.
A quick paint sketch of what it would look like if you were looking at the map from the "side" view:
Thanks if you can explain the easiest way of doing this in the editor.
