Could we maybe add a section just for terrain? Custom terrain, and terrain tutorials, and so on and so forth?

I think it would be a great idea.

except nobody really does terrian. seems like the people that do never upload it and makes one topic and updates every once in awhile. I think its safe to say its not even 5 topics worth. not worth making a section for.

That's quite true but I do believe that if a section was created and the people that do terrain (me being one of them) did submit and update (whenever they can) and post tutorials and so on....
Then the community would get involved and more terrain makers (or creators?) would be involved and knowledge would grow...

I just think it's worth a try.

Basic terrain editing isn't too hard to do, the programs are basically just copy & past so don't really need any lengthy tutorials. The artwork is also the same as doing any other 2D isometric art so plenty of tutorials around for that already.

While it isn't hard to make a few basic tiles, to make anything of worth can take months (or years) tho & all of the people willing to put in all the work generally only want to do so for their own projects.

In short; I think the Media hut is sufficient for the current level of terrain editing that is being done threw out the community. I would suggest maybe adding support for tmp files to the SHPs download forum so if anyone does want to post new terrain work then at least there is somewhere.
