you need 3 things - max, a copy of the ea t3d tool and the knowledge of how the uvw unwrap modifier works. The first 2 can be aquired in various ways, the 3rd is explained in any introductary book on max.
There are other ways of doing it but they're far inferior, it all depends how much effort you're willing to put into making your terrain

akuma, HELLO wake up ^_^
you know not all of us have the connection 2 dl it illigal or the money 2 buy a legal one.
as david told me, practice with the terrainbrush, so u wont have 2 learn other stuff, and its a great tool, david made some 1337 stuff with it, and i know u can 2 akuma, no need 2 use max...
i dont know any tuts on it, but just practice with it, and youll get along fine

Other than that, if you've got a modelling tool that can export in 3DS format, you can make the brush then import it in UEd (or so i think, since i can't use UEd)
or u could just use the 2d shape ed - check this out:
all done with 2d shape editor - only drawback is that your 'walls' are vertical, but that is not a huge issue IMHO

whuahahahahah and u are a genius ^_^ its a waterfall ^_^
oh and uhmm mambo.... you just showed off a (whisper whipser)-map....
you need 2 be spanked quite hard

the flat walls are a big issue, you want a realistic rock, not a wall with a rocktexture, straight is boring, and unnatural
but doesnt look that bad the waterfall should make smoke or something btw

you should probably also work on the lighting a bit mambo.. those corner lines (of the polygons) on the grass look awful.. and do what hourences is telling you to do also.
yo baddog you on the wrong end, he was talkin bout the 2d editor (its in ued 2.0 (1.0 also but not totally correct)
and u should know that u are workin on u2 maps if im right....

unfortunately, using 2D ed means u can't have not straight walls - i also didn't really like that, but can't really do anything about it - will put smoke at bottom of water fall, but the lines are unfortunately, to my knowledge, are sort of there to stay, with terrain like that - does it really look that bad? I didn't really think of it as a major issue...
Add in a big cube brush that includes the whole map, intersect, and export the brush you get into a .DXF file to send me over, and i'll 1337ify it with mah modeller
almost pressed new topic button again!
they are right about the walls being flat, but it is cool. Making outdoor maps is hard. I just subtract a bunch from a cone shapes to try and makes mountains, then intersect a big brush around it.
tell me if u guys like this, also if the map is designed well. I havent done too much detail so just disreguard how plain it looks. does anyone use the vertex editor? it meeses ut up for me. i mean i can fall throught the floor sometimes, into nothiness, or there is some invisible shape blocking the way.
