Topic Subject: Lowering the walls 2x faster!
posted 07-21-08 09:01 EST (US)   
Greetings guys. Some of you may already know this, but perhaps this tutorial will be useful for those who want to create perfect lowered walls. As you know it takes about 6 times to repeat the process while the wall is completely lowered to the ground, however there's a simple way to reduce it to three times!

Step 1: cover the area around the wall with water (beach, moat or sea will do as well, since we need the hades terrain).



Step 2: lower the wall by placing rocks as usual, but be sure that the rock is placed both on the wall and on water to equalize the height. Then delete the rocks, flatten the land and cover everything with water once more.



Step 3: now repeat the process two more times:





Result: the wall has been perfectly lowered



I hope this was useful!

Sincerely,
AZ ViTrAzhAs

Great idea!

I think this is one of the most useful discoveries of recent times. Welldone...it's a pity that I have finished making Troy

It's been a while since someone last spoke of the hades terrain. Interesting find Az.

I did this alot when I made maps. I've done so many roads, that without doing this, It'd be much more painful. XD

Check out Rome, Duomo, Troy, and Ghost.
Also, check out my campaign! First chapter, second, third, fourth, and the fifth chapter.
