If you intend to spawn loot in the buildings avoid using CUP_A2_ buildings, they dont spawn loot and create errors on joining, use ones with Land_ , Wall_, etc. on beggining of names ;) Im looking from position of m3editor not terrain builder though.

Big thanks man! Im locked on with normals version, i had problems to work with version without xD Thanks for clearing that up and very fast response!!

Hello :) Thank you for this thread xD Just one additional question, can i use more than 5 textures for my layers? I think(it might be just my tired brain playing tricks on me) i heard in tutorial that i cant/shouldnt use more than 5.

Sculpting terrain you mean for example ( its exaggerated on purpouse) you made a volcano and want the satellite image showing it? Heres what i do : When you created terrain in L3DT, make edits to your terrain in 3d mode(Sapphire), for example make your volcano or a lake in there. Exit sapphire you should notice image in Heightfield tab has changed, while you are in heightfield map click Operations/Water map/Flood wizard... (Im not sure if this flooding is needed when not doing under sealevel stuff, sou could just skip flooding i think) In flood wizard its pretty much just keep clicking OK, on the window where it says what level up to you want to flood choose 0 and i also tick the top option here to clear the old water first. After youve done that click on LIGHT map tab, once youre on the light map view click Operations/Texture map/Generate map and there you go, you can export new set up for TB. One downside of this thing is you have to have the L3DT project saved so you can edit it...

@ronhillultra Hey man ! Its great to hear youre back on map development! Esseker is one of the best maps out there and gave me the inspiration to start playing about with it my self! About your roads problem im a bit to nooby to help i think, but did you remember to add the ID field and number in database? I have also noticed some road types (so far mainly terrain pack ones[just a few]) just not showing up, but i bet you tried with different type of roads...

Hello guys :) I used both the YouTube tutorial and Atlas, after few days i almost feel comfortable to do it all myself :) Did you select NOISY OUTPUT in PBOProject(When i do thaton bottom of output it shows me exactly what lines in config ar whatever are wrong, it can be layers or anything i think lol)? And are you using his original tags for your test terrain? Cos i see a lot of CAPS_Gotland or whatever in there, i think it shouldnt be? I have one problem though, my map is working fine in editor, and i dont have any problem flying around it in heli, and have no errors while starting it or anything like that. Does that mean the map is ok? I am having problems creating an Exile server with it, im almost sure i am doing the mission file wrong for the server, but just want to make sure could it be any issues in my map addon??
