Is it possible to build a house over uneven terrain? I've been searching around but I can't find much info on this. Mostly people seem to be talking about split level staircases.
What I'd like to do is either link a second story floor to a ground level floor on a hill, or link a building on foundations to a building without foundations. This seems impossible though. Embedding a building in a slope seems impossible too.
Other than landscape gardening then, is there about point to the terrain editing?

I don't understand your last question... is there any point to building a house or expanding a house? I guess, yes. You want me to list points for editing terrain?
Is it also possible to embed a building in a slope?
Yes.
Basements are do-able. https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/853809/basements-in-ts2
I think editing terrain just for the yard is a good reason to have terrain editing. I'm so glad I can change it up if I want in TS2/3.
Something like this:
@Cinebar MikeInside isn't opening- it times out.
Trouble is, I've now just run into a different issue. I just deleted the lot I was experimenting on and the game completely flattened the terrain where the lot had been. That is really annoying! Is there any simple way to restore it, or edit that terrain?
I don't have Freetime, so modifyNeighborhoodTerrain doesn't work.
I've read that it can be edited in SimCity 4, which I have, but it is very heavily modded, so I'm not sure that would work.
1. make a new neighborhood
2. download and follow the instructions for the 'HoodReplace 2.3' program. http://modthesims.info/d/279992
3. delete the template neighborhood you made if you don't want it.
**Make a backup of your neighborhood before doing it.
What a palaver!
Glad you got it to work.
I hate that as I often refer back to those when I get stuck on something or did something wrong and it not working correctly.
Here is the link from SimWiki, but I can't get this link tutorial from mikeinside to open, either. I'm not sure if it's my browser or if they have taken down their tutorials after all these years. It also includes (in part 2) how to build this inside (sort of) a sloped hillside. Hope someone can open the link but I can't.

Looks like a good guide. Thanks!
Thanks! But when I save it to my favorites then try to open it, it won't open but it does if I click on it from here. I had those saved somewhere but have lost them somehow. But I guess I can bookmark this thread and follow the link you provided from here. Thank you!
All visitors (Guests and Service Sims) will go to a door on the ground. So, if you have the back door on the ground and the front on a foundation- they'll head to the back door. Same with a garage door.
What you need is a fence which stops them going to the back door (lock the gate) and they will use the front door on the foundation.
