I'm not sure what to do next. I have my land, and everything with the land itself is perfect. But i have the brown tiles(shallow water) around my land, and i believe i need to static some water tiles around it. I've searched around, and the closest answer i've seen is that you need to get a static patch. I downloaded a static patch and have no clue how to use it. So my questions are... Where do i go from here to finish my coast line? If i do need to use a static patch to finish it off, which one would be best, and where can i download it at(link would be helpful)?

Thanks

are you using dragon? if so which mod? or are you using Map Generator?

Oh sorry, forgot to mention that. I'm using map generator. Also i just downloaded UO Coast, i ran it, and it said finished or whatever. I replaced the map in my uo dir, looked in game and it did nothing.

if your using Map Generator you dont need UO Coast, hmm maybe sure you have random statics selected..hmm if i think of anything else ill get back to you

I put random statics on and it didn't do anything different.

Heres a pic of my terrain.bmp and my altitude.bmp. (Just a pic of the test islands) Oh and the screen shot above is taken on the small grass island.

Anyone?

Thanks for the replies.

make sure your swatches match the program your using, I've made mistakes on switching colors and what not, and make sure your shallow is out about 5-6 pixels to get a good transition and what not, I've had that problem before with me not checking the water close enough, off by a few hex numbers so yeah

The lands perfect, so i think the swatches are fine. However, i just randomly outline the edge of the land with shallow water. I'll try making them exactly 6 tiles away and see how it works. Thanks.

well don't check the land check the water, because thats where the problem is, I had grass and no water, but water like you had, and that was because my water color was slightly lighter then the programs water color

ALright i was stupid and forgot to put in the static files with it. All is well now, thanks a bunch for the help though guys.

I knew that had to be a static problem, i just couldnt think of what exactly it was. Because all shallow water is Art Tiles, and all deep water is Terrain Tiles.
