    Finally :D I want to thank a lot of people for giving me encouragement to keep trying and not give up on the one and only Paradise Island :D!!!! (Can you tell that I am overly excited and hyped about this map :D!!!!!) So now that that is done I want to thank these awesome people: LSDMT420 ; Fundador ; Gabester ; LJFHutch ; Petlua THANKS FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT!!!! :D I followed the tutorial that Fundador posted and it helped me tremendously, you guys should check him out if you are having trouble with map-making :) By the way I actually created my own heightmap.




    UPDATE




    So I have finished my map and it is ready for release. When you load the map you will be stopped by one error message, just ignore it as it wont affect the map in any way shape or form :). Any way I hope you guys like the map and if you will give me some constructive feedback :D. Thanks again to everybody who helped me :). For those of you with high-end computers the map is best viewed with the highest mesh and lighting settings :p. For those of you who have lower end computers or laptops make sure that you lighting setting is on low (I know its not as appealing but you can deal with it right :p) and you will be alright I hope :p.


    Thanks, Msurf15

    Probably should add that in the description but there will be a few off-road tracks, maybe a town, lots of beaches, rock crawling, and jumps. :D

    Happy you decided to give it another go man, Since you followed Fundador's guide you won't have to worry about running the updater either. Your heightmap and terrain painting look good, now the fun/tedious parts begin :p.

    when I loaded the level I got a this... Help01.png
    and when the level loaded it looked like this... Help02.png

    the terrain will not load without the .ter file, it needs to be in the Paradise Island folder


    As far as the sky goes try this tutorial http://docs.garagegames.com/torque-...ation/World Editor/Tutorials/CreatingSky.html

    More Information can be found here http://www.garagegames.com/products/torque-3d/documentation/user

    I hope this helps :) If you have more questions feel free to pm me.

    - - - Updated - - -

    here is the fixed .mis file

    be sure to make a backup of your old Paradise Island folder just in case :)

    I need you to tell me if this works because I did some stuff while waiting for you to write back. Its actually a lot of stuff including bridges a town new land scape and other random stuff ;) So I tried to like make sure that my original .mis file looks exactly like yours (it worked) soo I will attach my .mis file (which I hope is fixed) just test mine and tell me :)

    Thanks again :)

    Quick tip:

    To test whether or not your level will work for others.

    1. Install a clean build of Drive.
    2. Install your level
    3. Test.

    :D
