Help Needed

[NeonKnight]

OK, the help Guide (from the HELP MENU internal to the software) is actually very helpful.

The thing is, ALL the effects are expressed in UNITS. How much of a BLUR EFFECT do you want? Type in your units (or fraction there-of). How much do you want to 'fade' an edge by? Again, based on Units. Same for BEVEL, GLOW etc.

So, because the majority of the maps I make are dungeon maps (do a search for Thunderspire Labyrinth, Pyramid of Shadows, and Trollhaunt Warrens), my maps are initially made where a Unit = 5 Feet. So, knowing that,I know that if I make a GLOW effect equal to .1 Unit that is equivalent to 1/10th of 5 Feet or 6".

Does that help?

Also, if you are trying 'blur' on level into another, you want to make use of the EDGE FADE Effect, not BLUR.

As promised, here is a demonstration of the effects of CC3 on one of my maps.
You can access it via the URL below or download the pdf.
I hope this document will help you, and above all my translation is not too incomprehensible
