When using the enhanced FMB I am happy with changing height and textures, but how do you "erase water".
I have a couple of areas on my map_C which are resulting in water (the sea) on cliff faces in a few areas. Is there a way of correcting the sea placement in the FMB, erasing it, or can it only be done by editing map_C? Being able to modify it in the FMB would speed up the process.

Water can only be modified in map_C, there is no other way.
Can you post a screen of what it is you are having trouble with?
- ClockWatcher - 11.01.2008
Thanks for the info Skunkmeister, I thought it might not be possible. I am happy with why the problem occurs, map_C overlapping an area on map_h that has height information. It would be a lot quicker, simpler and visually appealing if all map_h and T's were 1 pixel = 50m.
By the way, that little old map of yours is looking very impressive, too impressive
Maraz and Asheshouse's maps are the same, all setting a very high benchmark for the rest of the map modding community to aspire to.Your Beta testing is giving good pointers to issues and possible solutions as well.

A couple of questions for the actors.static gurus.
Can you rotate a group of objects in the enhanced FMB after you have selected them, i.e an airfield, or can you only rotate one object at a time?
How do you cut and paste? I have ctrl-x for cut, that works, but I cannot get ctrl-v to work.
Cheers

If you select a group of objects to rotate, they will rotate around your mouse pointer. The game engine isnt smart enough to rotate an entire airfield and keep things aligned.
My cut and paste options work fine. Check your entries in your conf.ini again, you may have something misspelled.

You can rotate entire airfields, groups of buildings etc. Before you do that you have to tick Edit/Rotate Objects in the menu in order to keep everything aligned.

Really? Wow I have to try that! Thanks ash.

One issue that still needs to be resolved is this texture tearing issue between 32 pixel grids on the map_c, that was discussed in this thread:http://allaircraftsimulations.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2120
6S.Maraz Wrote:I copied manually the pixels every 32 rows and every 32 columns to the adjacent row/column, and I got rid of all artifacts. A tool to make that automatically would be welcome, manually it's only feasible for small maps
Maraz
The_Slot is way too big to use the manual method. Is anybody working on a tool to do this automatically? If not, can one of you graphic-smart guys look into it? IMHO this is one of the few issues that absolutely needs to be resolved. This map is just too nice to be marred by this issue, and we could really use some help on this one.

Anyone used the load from file stuff? Presumably you can have a mis file with a template of a base, village, etc, right?
- lowfighter - 15.01.2008
Not really that strightforward, you can load only another actors.static. So your template should be saved as actors.static first. May have a whole library of actors.
