I seem to be having some color bugs here, the water tiles are pitch black and snow is brownish... I'm running a Creative Annihilator Pro with the NVidia reference drivers (not sure which version). Its probably a driver issue, I'll check for newer drivers tomorrow
Aside from that I found something that most likely happens because of my own stupidity, but I'll mention it anyway:
sometimes when placing a tile it doesn't appear in the selected grid but in the next one to the lower left, e.g. when placing a tile in the 10.22/10.22 grid it appears in the 10.18/10.18 one. I hope its just me...

Redwing, have you tried setting the arena time?
When you first start the editor, it defaults to a dawn/dusk time, which can give you a screwy color effect.
Try using
.time 12 00 00
And see if that helps

Verm, the black water is normal for me. Even in the existing terrain, and the BETA terrain, the water is black. How you got blue water for the help file shots is beyond me. I can't run AH in 32-bit mode, I get a blue-screen. Alt-F4 is the only way to get out of it. Doesn't change with resolution either. I cranked AH up to 1280x1024 with no change in water color.

Yes I did change my desktop rez to match AH rez, with no results either.

I have the black water as well when using the editor. However, it only seems to occur in the editor, any terrains I created were fine when put into the game.

black water here too, in Editor and Offline flying (did not test it H2H though), it looks like this:

Yep, black water here too, with Voodoo 3. Works ok in H2H, so no biggie.
