About a map.

Someone sent me a map, and when I lower useing the "Apply Height: Lower" tool, water doesn't show up. Where do I go to make sure the waer shows up when I lower it.

It probably because the map wasn't started with water as the default ground. Just use the shallow water tool across the whole map if it's empty. If it's not, unfortunately you're going to have to do it the hard way, make shallow water and ramp off the cliffs.

Or use the water doodad from the UTM (it's just a big tile of water you can raise and lower, I'd say don't resize it or the textures will get stretched)

To do what you want to do you first need to go to Advanced, then you just un-check enforce water heights. Then once you've done that click on the shallow water tool, now make the basic shape of your river or whatever you're making. Then once you've done that, use a tile to line the edge of your river so you know where to lower it later.

Now, use the cliff tool to fill in the river, then use the lower tool to lower the land where your river was. And there you go, you have your river
