Title: How does one add ground effects?

Hey guys! I am very curious how one adds ground effects like grass and what not, my edits are looking very plain without them, Thanks!

Hi !

You can try to combine (rev41 + tutorial thread) :
viewforum.php?f=72 (http://modcraft.io/viewforum.php?f=72" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

And then :
viewtopic.php?f=59&t=1671 (http://modcraft.io/viewtopic.php?f=59&t=1671" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

Be sure to save a copy of your adts in a safe place before you try.

Ahm ok im also now on some Doodad / ground effect placings  but got one problem ._.

I only could set Groundeffects to the main texture of the whole adt :o Thats working very well but haveing trouble if i use a texture wich isnt the main one also its makes doodas everywhere ~

^^ here a screen...  Doodads where no doodads should be xD :/

On the Road there shouldnt be any plant and on the green side also not ^^ but the adt goes behind the blue region so on the whole adt is the main texture (bluegreen one) and its not making a change betwen other textures like ways mountains ect...

help ^-^

Ok my bad ._. i forgott that the new files are renamed xD  so i renamed them back to normal and use them buuuuut now i got an WoW Error instead :o

Tryed it now some times in diffrent ways... ahm on wich Editor / Program should the adt be saved ??

Noggit the old rev ?  The Newer SDL ? one of them + Refrep ? Something else ? xD i dont know i just got errors now :(

(after some more trys)

Ok im lost i got away from the errors now loading my older adts (from save) and yyep after using "FuTa" its now looking like this but i just made the Effect ID

Also if i load the same adt again with Futa its not showing the ID o.o // I think i dont like that all x_X why oh why ._.
