[YetAnotherYoutuber]

working on campaign, just like many in here.
looking for worldeditor skilled person that has time and knowledge to help with anything

knowledge that i do posses, is about editing units, buildings, some terraining
the rest is unknown land to me

edit: some considered my post weird, and i wonder why. so whatever, here you go with normalised version. loooking for advices onto world editor.

Let's hear your first questions then.
Also i suggest to keep studying the tutorials, sooner or later you will get the hang of it.

If you do not understand the tutorials (some of which are very simple), how are we supposed to help you? =/

Tutorials like these should be very easy to follow:
A Beginner's Guide to Map Making
A simple way to greatly reduce Object Editor lag!
Making a Basic Campaign

There are over 9 pages of tutorials, you should be able to grasp something from them.

If you have specific questions about things, you can always make a thread here to ask. Also if parts of the tutorials confuse you, similarly you can ask. I'm not sure anyone's going to take the time to tutor you, but collectively the community will be happy to answer your questions.

Not everyone learns from tutorials and that's fine. I can't stand video tutorials myself, and I know of people who can't stand text based ones. /shrug

tried importing unit models, didnt succeed (could not select it in the custom models - editor pretended that i did not import it)
tried adding maps to campaign, didnt succeed as well (could not even get past importing the map unlike with models)
and any advices onto terraining a mountain forest area?

 

[Chaosy]

Terraining is probably the one skill that cannot be taught. Because you need an artistic eye to be a good one.

As for triggers and map making in general there are tutorials for just about everything.

Your current issues are too vague, need more information of what you did.

 

[LordDz]

Terraining can be taught just like any other skill, just needs practice. Best way is just follow tutorials and try making something similar.

About your modeling failures, did you look at the "How to import this model":
Prophet Velen
How to import 'Prophet Velen' | HIVE
That is displayed for every model and after having imported it saved the map and restarted the editor?

"any advices onto terraining a mountain forest area"

another question : how to add another tileset? currently got the classic (dirt, rough dirt etc) and green grass/green dark grass
looking to add in brown grass and brown dark grass (village fall textures i guess) how do i add them onto the terrain palette?

Advanced > Modify Tileset

You can only have a certain amount of tilesets though (some cost 2 tilesset) and you cannot change tilessets, that are used by cliffs as far as I know.

thanks - some can be changed, although not the one i wanted. o well, at least i know for next mission

Have you tried Theeffi's tutorials? That's what I used and I was a noob just like you (I only knew how to Place units and doodads before I started the campaign).They aren't always easy to understand, but he will help you in the comments. As I said, you should make a 'How I Suck at World Editor' series and I could also help you in the comments then.
