How I make to raise in equal way the land (so as to to make a hill where to put the German fortifications of Omaha Beach)?

Try Alt+click with terrain tool.
(and Shift+click to smooth terrain)

About the update of tutorial:

Yes, I promised it and I will do it. But it can take a few months as others things must be done first with higher priority.

I hope you understand it!

Already posted this tho the Question thread, but here goes:

My question is about the editor. I'm making my map and after I placed my minimap.dds file into the E:\Games\Faces of War\resource\map\desert folder, my screen looks like this.

Any help would be appriciated what to do now.
My camera settings are (from up to down) 1200, 750, 32 & 60.

And the other thing is that even when I'm not in the Clip editor I can still see the yellow, blue, green and violet lines. Help?

Hi Kontrol, I don't see the problem at the moment, please specify it.


Delete the editor_desktop in your profile folder and lines will be away.


visit us below, I'm more active there:

Well, if you look at the building and the man at the corner, you can see that they are "streched". Example: When the guy should look like this <->, he looks like this <--->

Look at the picture carefully and you'll notice.

The blue/green/purple lines... that's a bug. At first I wanted to know how to turn that ON. Then I realized, if you go to Clip editor, then quit the editor & restart, the lines will always be on no matter what mode you're in. Like Instinct said, you may want to delete your editor preferences in your mydocuments/mygames/fow/profile directory. In the screencap it looks like you have "fisheye" mode on?

Doolittle

Indeed I had. But I got rid of it by deleting the file you already mentioned. All credit to Instinct who helped me with this problem

Hi,

i have been trying to make some coop missions and just now i encountered something very annoying. I put some doods with MG's in a trench and then i send some enemies towards them. The problem is, that the enemy soldiers can liek jus walk up to them and the peeps in the trench just wont see them. Its only when they are but 2 meters away that they notice O_O.
Sure i could tell em with "actor_fire" to shoot them when they are like 60 meters away, but that just doesnt feel quite right....

Whenever I start up GEM FOW just starts up as the normal game, whats happening?

Check your shortcut link if you are using one.

Hello,I am having trouble on how to open the editor,every time i open it goes to faces of war the game,how do i open it?

If you would be so kind to read 2 posts above your one and notice that someone else asked exactly this question too.

Nothing on the link helps, I have tried reinstalling GEM but it does nothing HELP!

Go to your maindirectory of FoW and start the .exe manually there.

Yes, i have had the same problem as bogstrangler and OMG2007. cTk was right the shortcut that is defaulted to the start menu is linked to the game. Just start it mannualy or change the shortcut. This took me 40mins to figure!!

Oh and BTW that is a great tutorial, thanks man!

Ok now i have my own probs. I loaded up the editor and it looked pretty simple, compared to UnrealEd anyway. But i can't figure out how to move my view. I pressed F3 for the mission editor and moved like that...was very hard . Then i pressed F2 to get back to creating my map and the view change. After that i could'nt move myself on the minimap.

Another problem i have is how do you create whole buildings and why do buildings and objects look invisible!?

I would appreciate help. Thanx

w00t all fixed! Thx guys!

first set your camera limits in mapeditor, by doubleclicking on auto, than deactivate camera limitation in F2.
F3 press alt+f
Select the names of the buildings instead opening the folders.

Ok i get the bit about the alt + f thanxs!
but i dont know where this "auto" button is. Any help?
