Hi Folks.

How do I place water, creating a river?

Hi Paul,

Either use the river loft/spline tool or for a better effect... form a depression along the line of your river using the terrain tools and place a water decal which you can stretch to fit the area you want to be 'wet'! The water decal can be raised or lowered to the desired water level.

Hope this helps.

That's a top tip as far as I'm concerned. I've been wondering how you're supposed to do lakes.

Thanks!

Bob

I was messing around with this last night but didn't make any headway. Any chance of getting a step by step tutorial? Sorry for the bother.
