[Solved] MiscData & Steep cliff

[Jaccouille]

Hello, I've been trying to make steep cliff using a custom MiscData.txt, I've been through a lot thread and still can't manage to make it work on latest version 1.32.3

I Added the MiscData.txt in a newly created UI folder in my local wc3 installation folder

I Imported the MiscData.txt in my map

I still end up with cliff being made like in the second picture, I thought that it could be made more "straight", or "steep" as it is said on the thread I saw using the MiscData.txt.

The MaxSlope field is set to 87 in the MiscData.txt

If you have any clue for investigation, I opened the CASC storage after adding the file in my wc3 installation folder, then opened the miscData.txt extracted, MaxSlope was set to 50, dunno if it's normal.

Have you allowed local files in your registry?

I think you misunderstood the threads you went through. The "MaxSlope" parameter has nothing to do with cliffs.

He wants to raise terrain to imitate steep cliffs, not manipulate the actual Blizzard cliffs.

Follow the steps outlined here to allow local files in your registry.

I thought that as well, but his second screenshot displays the cliffs for some reason and everything seems all right with his registry settings.

I assume he just doesn't know that the steep "cliffs" aren't actually cliffs in that sense. Also he didn't mention anything about the registry, which is why I mentioned it since it's a required thing.

@Jaccouille Just for clarification; The cliffs you are seeking aren't made with actual cliffs, they are made by raising/lowering terrain, and then using the plateau brush.

You will get steep walls that you can cover in doodads. Just remember to place pathing blockers, or else the cliffs will be walkable; Screenshot

Aight, so when people say "cliff" they refer to cliff made using the raise height tool, I thought they referred to blizzard cliff, well then the MiscData.txt actually works, I just misunderstood and was aiming for something else, thank you.
