I just downloaded SCXE and I was planning on making a Sc:BW UMS map but I dont know how to create the terrain with the squared/smooth edges...does anyone know what im talking about? Its in almost all UMS maps now adays...its where the edges of each layer which you lie down, are completely straight and smooth...How do you do that?:shoot

Yea, what God Said. ISOM is a stand-alone program that does Square/Rectangular Terrain.

No. Don't get ISOM it sucks. Get SCM Draft Beta, you can create square terrain fricken easily with that, but you can't save new maps and you can't place diamond shaped terrain. If you want super organized looking terrain then use GUEdit, but ISOM is too hard to get exactly what you want, I'd suggest SCM Draft Beta. You can find that in the bottom sticky of the UMS message board, and same with GUEdit. You need JRE 1.0.2 to run GUEdit, but it's worth it.

Yea, ISOM is somewhat hard to use. But once you can use it, it works just like SCM draft- but just terrain. Just a matter of choice, thats all.

not exactly kao, in isom you cant get square and sometimes when you make the rectangles it also creates other strange rectangles in weird places and it takes a very long time to fix it and make it perfect, sometimes you just cant fix it. scm draft beta is much easier, just makes terrain where you want it to and can also do square terrain

When the last version of StarForge comes out you'll be able to do what SCM Draft and GUEdit have combine.:D Either just normal square terrain or extreme organization terrain.

i would get guedit (i have it) it isnt that hard to work. Plus you can protect your maps and change colors of units and stuff. Thanks to Matrix i got the terrain to work on my Guedit and my maps look cool now! Thx matrix! ^.^
