Tree doodad height setting

[Wraithwynd]

If this is in the wrong place, please move it.

Trees all have that funky bottom that looks ok from above, but from a lower angle of attack they are floating.

It there a way to select all the trees in a map (only) to lower them or is there a way to set up trees to where when they are placed they are set deeper into the terrain.

I have a few created maps from earlier works that I am trying to salvage, I would hate to try to select one tree at a time to lower it to hide the funky bottom. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Good question mate, Guess you have to use the old time consuming way and select as many trees as possible with shift and then page down
Good luck!

Can't you set the roll or something? I guess you can always do MadseN's idea. Although if you have more than trees in your map it's going to be a bitch to select them all!

 

[Wraithwynd]

Well then say Good-bye to those maps... Well I might keep the terrains.

I have a bad habit of putting shrubs, bushes, rocks, logs and stuff on forest floors so selecting a few at a time is just not going to work.

 

[Gilles]

Bad habit? Sounds more like a good habit!

Select one tree, then go under Edit and click on "Select All Special", this will select all doodads of the same kind.

Nice 2-P! +rep

I never knew this. Oh and if this is the 2-P, I like your work!

I don't think there is too many users around calling themselves 2-P, so it is safe to asume that it is "the" 2-P.

Anyways, nice tip, I didn't know that either, good for future editing, thanks.

2-P, you just saved me hours of work.
THANX!

Bless you! I never knew that that existed. +rep
