Cliff remove

[emil23]

Is it possible to remove cliffs at shores without making again all map and all terrain?
what i mean: i have all shores on map like in right image i want all shores to look like in left image http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/members/194769-albums4305-picture53096.jpg
also explain me how to do it if its possible
when i use option to cut down cliff's lvl terrain looks like this http://pl.tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2n9hxmt&s=9#.VqZ76prhCik its ugly because water has too high llvl water is up and terrain is in hole

I think you will need to manually go over it with the terrain tools to make it look better. The computer can't tell when something is ugly or not so you will have to do it if you want it to look nice.

Use the ramp setting I think and different elevations

You can do it by copying & pasting everything into a new map. You need a map that is all water. This way the raise tool will pull the ground up and make land. You can create a new map and copy the terrain from the old map and paste it into the new one. First flatten out all of your cliffs you want flat. Don't worry about saving the water for now. After you paste it lower the areas you want to be water. Then c+p your doodads and units the same way. If you want to bring object and trigger data over you can do that too with the export function. It's really not that complicated. I have done it before and it saved my map. Depending on what you have so far, you may want to import all of the data into the new map first. A good rule to follow is that you should start every map with a water terrain.

well f*ck me im s*it editor i cant even flat clifts i hate clifts so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! f******g clifts meh no one wants to do my request i cant do it myself https://i.imgsafe.org/cfcc79f.jpg

post the map. I can try to take a look at it.

One could write a macro program to programmatically remove all cliffs on the map and alter the water level. Results will probably need some manual fine tuning afterwards.

http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/requests-341/cliff-remove-request-275006/ link to map guys gimlis idea is good to select shallow water and make on my map. units and doads will survive then raise all. I will do it later i dont have time now. pls look at map i fell like invalid . yesterday i trryed to do like you said but i did something wrong i guess . i made second map started with water and Raised it . when i coppied terrain from my map it had Cliffs. . . . when i used options to flat clifs then copied terrain water had too high lvl.

well xd idea with shallow water might be hard to do for ME. because its map 256x 256 europe world war 2 . and i would have to put wisps on land's borders to know excatly borders of terrain+ my editor lags for 2-4 sec every time when i raise terrain . . . so it would take 200000 hours to do it. my mate is death he cant help me at making it i was editing map together with him. Legal ease could you do with my map like you did with ur map?.will it work if : 1 you copy all terrain from my map to new map 2 there are no clifs in new map 3 you send me new map 4 i copy terrain from new map without clifts to orginal map? Also is there way to raise faster and more terrain?? Raising terrain would take me really long + lags. Sorry for my terible english i hope you can understant something.Meh im learning english since 8 years and im still terrible.
Is it possible to raise only land (without water even IF i touch water with green square)

As I said, this is a job for a macro of sorts. It took JavaRE <0.1 seconds to strip all the cliffs from the map while preserving node height.

This is what the result looks like.

I have posted the map in the request thread.

Your english is ok, don't worry. Keep working on it though. If you still need help message me, but it looks like the Doctor took care of you.

Solved.

Wow good job Doctor didn't you know you could do something like that. Is this macro program a resource of any kind or is that your own person tool that you made?

[Acutesharpness]

you probably mixed the cliff type, very bad mistake ;p

It is a Java library I wrote for modifying w3e files. It is fairly easy to hack together a program to perform the modification roughly.

Entirely up to you. The amount of effort it took was trivial.
