Open the Watermill file, which can be found at Computer>Local Disk (C:) > Feralheart> Media > Terrains
Inside should be a picture the looks like the map that comes up in the top left hand corner of the screen when playing watermill in game. Open it, and edit it with either photoshop or gimp. Colour it all grey, and then paint places you want lower a darker shade of grey, and places you want higher, a lighter shade. Blur the edges, so that they are not vertical but sloped. When you are finished, save this, but as (Whateveryourmapnameiscalled)terrain . (If you are using photoshop, just select none for the interlaced option thingy.) When you get in game, get onto the map maker, load your map, select the second of the three buttons at the top (Sorry, fh is down for me so I can't check what it is called. :-[ ) And then the thing the first option in that window that says Dealfultterrain (I think) should be clicked on. Replace it with (Whateveryousavedthefileas) and then press enter. HEY PRESTO! Works like magic!
