Hi Aaron and everybody else reading this,

i try create a coastline which increases in height from the beach to a mountainborder using the DM map.
But all my trys so far failed.

Here is a profileview sketch of what i try to achieve:

Hi H4voc,

This is probably not something L3DT does well/easily, but it is possible to add a uniform slope to the design map using the 'Graphs→DM_SlopeOverlay' menu option. There's an example in the ski run tutorial of using this feature to add a slope to the design map, then using the brush tools to paint on mountains etc.

Best regards,
Aaron.
