    I've tried to create the illusion of elevation a year ago with the standard fills. Here is the result. Two entities on the same sheet with a stone fill, a dark inner glow and a directional shadow. With better textures this could be a starting point for your map.

    Doing something similar is very, very easy.

    Just draw some paths to represent the top/bottom of the hills, extend them past the border/edge of the map and then close them off. Use the MULTIPOLY tool to create a polygon of the paths. Then after changing your pen's color, you can then use the freehand tool if you want to draw the vertical lines to represent the vertical sides of the object in question.

    I might be a bit thick but I'm not sure how you mean, NeonKnight =/ (I'm horrible at reading instructions...) And I also don't know what the Multipoly tool is I could find some polygon tool but that's it.
