Floating Terrain

[Enderz.]

Is this possible to do? Make terrains float on top of another

Floating ontop of another? Please give more info I am abit lost here

 

[Fladian]

Uhhh... aren't those platforms thingies helpful here?

 

[Arkidas]

Platforms can be used but I don't think there is another way.

 

[Fladian]

Perhaps those floating... whatever they are from Outland? Could they be used as well?

I don't know much from the WE anymore... unfortunately.

 

[Enderz.]

like say theirs a bottom terrain to walk on... then theirs a top terrain on top of it so the units can jump on their with their jump ability

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

So if a unit uses an ability called jump he gets to another floor? That could just be made with move unit to another area of same size and calling it floor 2

You could make a few custom destructibles using the hidden terrain models from the game and have them be so and so height above the ground...
And then theres jumping, add/rem edit of metamorphosis ability whereas morphed unit is a flying unit...
Use trigger to change flying height....
Then theres pathing...
Would need to record what level the unit is on...
Have custom pathing textures, and change pathing based on level...
Above levels would have to be removed and added as moving inbetween...
Yeah its very possible, at least I believe it is. Would take alot of work just to have more space.
Better to just make different areas different levels.

WarCraft 3 has only 1 level of pathing so if someone was using something that went over something else anything beneath it would not be walkable. The most common way is to change the pathing via triggers, if the unit enters such and such area switch to such and such floor. I did find a bug though that makes water float in the air.

This is over my head but I think it would take a either a custom trigger or a mod.

Why doesn't blizzard let you raise the terrian, and then 'dig' through it, so you could make tunnels, THAT WOULD BE SOOOO AWESOME!
(See that way you could also make different levels )

 

[SeasonsOfLove]

You can do tunnels. If you've played Return of the Dragons, you'd know that. You can't show them, though.
