What does that mean, and how can i fix that.
Have you created the base file into the installation folder?

What's the best way to create some hills? I always get almost crazy when creating them :D and I never made any.. and, how to change width of terrain strip when placing it?

Thanks, Zelva

You can build hills by changing the terrain profile in the road properties, the width is changed by editing the quad count. If you want to build a hill apart from a road, tick terrain instead of road or city road in the properties.

How do you make city intro's? Like when you start a new game and you've selected a city

I think it would be better to post it here, because it can be useful for all of us building maps..

There isn't really an explanation for this... concerning the defs, all that will help you is look at the defs provided and then try to do the same.
