Default modifyNeighborhoodTerrain cheat doesn't work
Hi all,

Hope some-one can help me with this. I'm trying to raise the terrain of my newly created neighborhood while using this cheat. It normaly should let you select the terrain, but it doesn't. I'm sure it's on and my neighborhood is empty so nothing could be in it's way. The map I'm trying the change is DesideratedValley, I've all the expensansions and I'm running Win10.

specs:
Intel i7-7500U [email protected]
Ram 12Gb

Any help would be great

thanks

So from a cheat file? Sounds like something is wrong with your alias.

[QUOTE=joandsarah77]So from a cheat file? Sounds like something is wrong with your alias.

I don't use a cheatfile. But when you type a few letters in the cheatbox and click tab it completes the cheat. I do that to make no mistakes, I only have to put on or off after it. It just doesn't do anything when I do place on after it.

Do you have any lighting/shader mods, by any chance? Those can make it so that when you use the cheat, the green square doesn't show. The mod still works in the sense that you can raise/lower bits of the terrain, but you can't see what you're highlighting so it makes it very difficult. This is a problem with Dreadpirate's blue snow fix, for example, which alters the terrain shader, which is what's used to highlight terrain to be modified when using that tool. I use Dread's mod, so if I need to do any terrain sculpting, I have to remove its shader fixes first and then the green highlight square will show.

I'm mostly found on (and mostly upload to) Tumblr these days because, alas, there are only 24 hours in a day.

@iCad thanks for the heads up on that mod, I had it downloaded but hadn't installed it.
