[Terrain] Flat cliffs (again!!)

[sethmachine]

Hi,

So I dug up this old thread:

https://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/world-editor-help-zone-98/flat-cliffs-220218/

Basically I have the same question, but that thread wasn't solved.

I've got jass new gen editor and misc.txt etc. Still can't make those flat cliffs.

Also if I open a map with those flat cliffs, and I copy / paste em (or do anything) they suddenly get ruined. So what's up with that?

 

[Vinz]

Flat cliffs? Plateau?

E: Oh I get it. Do you enable Local Files via JNGP Extensions? Or import the MiscData?

 

[sethmachine]

I just hit "Enable Local Files" under Extensions (the first option) and reloaded the editor.

I also have a UI folder right in the Warcraft III directory, and inside UI I have a text file called misc.txt. AFAIK it has the right settings, but just to be sure I've attached it here: View attachment misc.txt

For context, here are the cliffs before I do anything:

Now, if I just touch them in anyway: lower, raise, plateau, noise, smooth, or copy/paste, all of the sudden everything gets ugly.

Still need help, as this is not close to being solved.

It's supposed to be named miscdata.txt?

 

[WaterKnight]

MiscData.txt to be exactly if it checks for case sensitivity.

MiscData.txt to be exactly if it checks for case sensitivity.

This appears to fix everything. I can edit the flat cliffs now, and also I believe make my own.

Solved--many thanks WaterKnight and CakeMaster!
