Hey im having problems making the map for my terrain i've eask questions after questions still can figure out whats wrong with the TE. What seems to be the problem in my opinion is its not taking a picture. I dont know though, the land wont show up on the picture its just blue. Thank you please help me.

Search this forum with the word clipboard and you'll find your answer in several places.

Edit: Wait a second. The map the TE creates is all blue? How much land mass have you made?

Rebels, the first thing you need to do is "File -> New". You need to do that to build all the files necessary. Then you can lay in your terrain, fields, etc.

IF you placed 86 miles on a 512x512 map, and those 86 miles aren't all in one spot, I think it would be very difficult to see land anywhere on the map that's created.

NOTE: In my tutorial I mentioned that 1 tile is 1 sq. mile. I might be wrong, but that's what the tutorial told me when I learned how to use the TE.
