Can someone answer my map and object questions, please?

[Aliwolf]

Hi, I have a few questions about the objects and map-maker.

1.) I need help on placing objects. I can do basic stuff like trees and waterfalls, but i'm having trouble with some.

Okay, so I want a log-bridge where the arrow is, but the log (Hamilton's solid log) just sinks to the bottom of the lake:



And a leaf-pile type roof here, but it falls to the bottom of the "hole", it's going to end up as a den. (I tried using the FH flower pile. Does anyone know where I can find a leaf pile that matches the map terrain?).



2.) For some reason, every object I have loaded (Wombat oaks and the solid log from Hammy) is completley walk through. Here's an example with the log I want to use for the bridge. How do I make it solid? (completely oversized, I know. Gonna shrink it.):



Thanks to whoever helps! (These images and map belong to me, and any use will be reported.)

Would it be possible for me to do? If not, I can PM you the map download.

It's ok, I think I figured it out, still gotta test my theory. Also I didn't get the pm, what were you going to do?

When you are making a custom object, be sure to check the "use collision" box before saving the object, otherwise you'll just walk right through.

Also, if you want an object above the ground, select it and go to the "controls" tab. In there you can change the x y and z values. Y makes it move up and down

Thanks, Sameth! I'll try when I get home!
