Mapping issues

[Amon-Chakay]

I have no idea, and i've searched everywhere i could search, and i can't find what i need, so i decided to make a thread for all those who need answers to theyre problems.
So here are mines.

1.- I want to make a bridge, and i only find the sides, how do i make the central part of it???

2.- I made a fortres, but when i try the map, the units ho through the walls, how do i make them unpassable???

Hope someone helps me

I think i finded how to make the walls impassable, with the Impass edit tool


hahaha, how stupid i am

To create a bridge.
You need to build the bridge itself from terrain.
then just add the side objects to the uhm sides

[Amon-Chakay]

so, i have to restore the height of the terrain after i make the river?

i thought thee would be some other objects for it

thanks

Oh but here is somthing i find really annoying- you can't make suspended bridges, for units to walk on

[Junk angel]

that has something to do with the engine.
The object themselves do not create impassable terrain, as you yourself must have found out with your fortress.

just cun in the river, then use select height, choose the height that used around the river and connect the two sides.
Add the sides, and some decals if you wish to make it look more bridgelike

Actually Kitty, as true as that may be, I was playing on a map where they had a suspendable bridge. I belive it was made by BioUltra. The map wasn't that 'pretty' but it had a suspended bridge.

[Junk angel]

there is one. I belive it is under ork objects.
But it does not create terrain.
You would have to have the entire terrain disabled (invisible) and simulated via objects thatare on terrain level

Thanks the bridges loook pretty real now hehehe

Now i'm finished, but there are two more things:

1.- How can i make the map that appears in the map selection

2.- the in-game minimap appears green, well not entirely, but it looks like all the ground and walls, everithing is green O_o

someone can help?

thanks

[Junk angel]

you need to make the minimap yourself
Dig trough the new mapping team thread
there are about two tutorials for those
or here should be a link

what do you mean ingame selection?
The picture?
Almost the same as the map
it pertain both.
