You turn the water layer flag on for a certain tile.

This is done by editing the war3map.w3e data file for your map. war3map.w3e data file contails all terrain mesh data for your map.

Also please stop bumping excessivly. The more you bump the less likly people will help you and the more likly you will get punished.

 

[Mr.Foxy]

No, Mean: just like water smother. Just like Oases. It smoth without cliff.

 

[Dr Super Good]

I do not understand.... Water is a mesh layer just like terrain geometry. You can raise and lower water node height (although to less accuracy than terrain nodes). Water has nothing at all to do with cliffs.

When you create the map, set the initial Water level to Shallow Water.
Then, to create land, use the raise tool. (The entire map will be shallow water)
If you don't want to recreate the map, change everything on the map to shallow water and start raising to create land.

Yes, i know that, but, my map is to late. .
How does now?

 

[Dr Super Good]

Like I said, just turn the water flag on for all tiles.

Listen to DSG, he knows his shit.
Oh and thanks for that information, I was going to re-do the entire terrain of my map just to include shallow water, but your idea is way better ^_^

 

[Mr.Foxy]

Where?

 

[Dr Super Good]

The only real problem is that there is no easy tool to do this. Thus you need to know programming and modify the file manually or write your own script/program to modify the file.

 

[Mr.Foxy]

Oh nooo.. :::::::::::: Owe owe owe owe.
What must i do?

Place deep wather, use LOWER and RISE terrain tools to create custom cliffs or import water and waterfall models, import MiscData.txt file. Start creating awesome terrrains.

 

[Mr.Foxy]

So, how to remove the cliff again?

 

[Hashjie]

Removing a cliff is just as simple as adding them, simply lower the terrain that you have raised in order to remove it.

If you however are using the blizzard standard cliffs, which is not advised and looks really ugly. You should remove the cliff by reducing the cliff level with your Apply Cliff: Decrease One tool.

To make sure that you can create high cliffs with the raise and lower tool you would have to create a folder called UI in your warcraft 3 installation folder where you put the edited Miscdata.txt which you can download in -Kobas- 's post.
