Making a map, having troubles with GE

Post by Dragongryph »

Hi, I'm trying to make a new map, and so far I've got the basics down and I'm learning on the way.

However I've got some troubles with the GE. First and foremost the replace option on terrain editing. Basically it doesn't work as I want it to, I say replace by 600 and it just ends up replacing by 255, telling me that's the upper limit, even if it can replace it all the way up to 2000 in theory(at least the bar goes that far up). Is it just lying to me and 255 is in fact the upper limit? Or is there something wrong with my program?
Also, if it can only go to 255, is there any possible way to make it go higher?
I'm making a fjords of western Norway map, and height is essential. You can't have a fjord if you can't have deep water and tall mountains. And even if I were to just make the water flat so it just has the looks. 255 would still not be enough to make a nice mountainside, seeing as how most of the hills are 400 mao and that's not really tall.
Please help me :)
