Hello friends
I have been working with this world a loooong time and for the moment I cant do anything because my CAW dont wont to work. Hopefully it will work again when Pets is released. I did download create a pet demo and first it didnt work, then I read a good tip here in forum. It worked again for a while and now it doesnt. My world has crasched 2 times and forced me to rebuild it. Now I have a lot of back up if anything happens, but very big frustration for the moment. It all started with that I was going to build a house for my dauther in one BnS challenge. I didnt worked it out so I started to think, why not a whole world instead. And here it is, but lot of work remains and betaplay it too.
I will call it Madina and it means country of Beauty in Hindu. It is two islands that is connected by a sandbank. The smaller is called Maalai and that means contry of flower in Hindu. The landscape is handmade and every tree is placed one by one.
I have some picture.
This is Madina and Aamaal the city.

I have made some changes, moved the spaceskipyard to a new little island. Instead I could make new lots and one of them become an horsearena.

It's very lovely. You're waterfall is beautiful.
I hope you get CAW working so you can finish it soon.
I have made the most of the ground accessible for the sims, besides the steep and some parts of the hills. It would be very funny if EA could make a patch where the sims could dive in the sea and look on the fishes and find treasures on the bottom.
Otherwise I love the colors!
Have you checked out the Troubleshooting thread at the beginning of this forum to get CAW working again? Here's the link:

I guess you mean the sandbanks on Maalai island. My thought with Maalai is that it is made of sand and the sea have by all the years taken a little bit of land, pice by pice.
When I get my CAW to work again I will show more picture.
But this is my first world and where do I set the fallout set?
Update 111024!
My CAW still dont work. I have pets, the new patch 1.26 and removed demo pets. I have worked a great deal with my world.
I do succeeded to export it anyway and I can play in my world and betatesting, but I need to redo some lots and take away some files.
Here are some picure on Emerald village.

My sims parents horse walked into the house and she could not get out, so I knocked down a wallsektion and asked her to leave the house. I guess that horses is not purposed to get into houses, but this lady did. :-)

Sorry, I just saw your question, your fallout value is on the right-hand side of the screen under terrain paints - you will have an option to lower your opacity & fallout values (I think I am using the right term, fallout, but I'm at work right now & don't have Create A World here, maybe it's falloff, lol) - I usually work with the setting at zero or about 5 - 10 only - you should notice your terrain paints blending in better. As for your question regarding how to fix the cliffs, are you able to take a picture of what you mean & someone may be able to help you.
Once again, good work here

Usually if your Sims are stopping on the bridge, it is not connected to the road properly. There is a tutorial somewhere on the forum. But basically, you drag the edge up to the road and it should just grab the bridge and connect itself, the little dark blue diamond on the edge of the road should turn lighter blue, then you know it is connected properly. I am not sure about horses though, but I woudl assume if they will not cross the bridge, it is not connected to th road properly. Good luck
