Just one question.How I get screenshots of the terrain?I made one.Shall i take a screnshot in game and the edit it in photoshop?
Look here:
http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/showpost.php?p=347005&postcount=25 I gave three images which shows how the editor views and the possible game views work.
For the sake of using the editor to take terrain pictures Step by step:
1. Go to advanced 'View Entire Map'
2. Scroll a round and find the right camera angle and shot. Without fog, shadows and all of that on - these cause lag.
3. Hit V only if you have doodads like pathing blockers or birds or bats (giving those pink checkered boxes) If there are none in the view then you do not need to hit V.
--- OR ---
---> Turn on fog (f), sky (k), shadows (s), etc as needed. (Menu/view)
4. The left side menu Has a bar on the right side, grab that and move it far left. Then maximize the window.
5. Hit screen shot, then past the screen shot in say MS Paint - move and crop as needed or frame it whatever you want to do.
If you are taking quick screens of a smaller editor window, say for a quick history picture book of what you are doing, then hold down CTRL button when you hit print screen - that will only take an image of the window you have selected (on top).
An alternative (since you have paintshop) is to go to C:\Program Files\Warcraft III\Screenshots on your computer you will find all of your screen shots in a format that can be opened by programs like paintshop, microsoft picture it, etc.
For posting here you need to change it to a JPEG.
I have found it rather easy to just take a screen shot and paste it in MS paint - moving the selected image until the menu bars are off the upper left hand corner, then moving the sides of the page to cover the right and bottom. For those who do not have paintshop and other photo editing software.
