hey guys i am making an dark fantasy Online Roleplaying game with crafting and world player vs player elements but the thing is its getting really boring i am almost (kind of almost) finished with my map but its so boring and the thing is its also boring to play so if i would finish it than i wont play it cause its boring



how can i fix this:
there is only ONE way and that is ....


better terrain but i cant import stuff cuz my editor shutsdown when i place an awesome terrain doodad
if i open my editor again its just a green/black brick and even ingame



so is there anything else how to get your map get less boring?

Good terrain enchants the experience, it does not create a good experience.
Gameplay itself has the most weight.

hmm yeah still i did like to see like terrain in my map i just dont have the models

Actually, the map you make will always be boring to you. You've spent so much time making it, and dealing with its problems, that it becomes frustrating and you know every everything about it, so it's not fun to play it any more.

--All Warcraft 3 Tile Paths--

but how can i change the paths from tiles?

 

[Alok]

First you need to see which one of your current tiles from your map's tileset you want to change to your new one. Then you import the tile and change its path in the import manager to the path of the tile you want to overwrite. The path of the tile is pretty self explanatory - if you used, for example, lordareon summer tileset, and want to change the grass tile to new one, you import the new tile with the "TerrainArt\LordaeronSummer\Lords_Grass.blp" import path.
You cannot add new tiles, only replace the ones in your current tileset.

but how do i import a tile?

 

[Chaosy]

You don't.
You replace the existing ones. Or their texture anyway.

but how do i import a tile?

Don't you know how to import any file. Go to import manager in your world editor and click import and find the tile. Then double click on it when it's imported and change the path.

oh man i am loving it.... wth!!!

 

[Alok]

I don't know what's wrong. This method works for me. Maybe it's something with your editor or your game or with the tile file you are using.
