Placing water on a map (Lakes, Dams, etc)

[Enarcy 10]

I'm trying to work out how to create a small lake on a map. I know it can be done (eg. Topolka Dam in Chenarus) but I can't find any information about how to do it.

Does anyone have any ideas?

yes, water objects can be placed with this addon:

MAP Editorupgrade (EU)

The MAP_EU would be required for editing and playing !

the water objects may need to be setpos above 0 for you to see the water texture.

It is best viewed from above, it has no texture underneath.

the water is just a flat object that may or may not blend into the terrain depending on the height.

place the following code in the objects init field (the bold number is the height value).

this setpos [ getpos this select 0, getpos this select 1, (getpos this select 2) +[b]1[/b]]

As we are in the Visitor section, this is not really the answer.. In order to have lakes and dams, you'll need to place one of the pond items in the \ca\structures\pond directory. I would assume that you would place it as an "Artificial" object. I've not used them at all, so you may need to experiment a bit..

I 'really' answered him based on his question, not 'what forum section I am in',

I bet he thinks 'visitor' is himself ;)

Ah, so all water bodies except the ocean must be placed on the map as an object.

Thanks for your help.:)
