Normal sized.

In Image Shack click the zoom icon first. Then you can click on the full size image and save it to your disk.

I going to make use of that and the Block Codes now and ask about Block 6-3-7

I've seen this arch in maps but haven't had any luck creating one myself. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? What steps are needed to produce an arch?

I just did this. I created two mountains next to each other (room for one mountain in between) by the use of TF4 (terraforming 4). Then I selected 6-3-7 and placed it between the mountains.

Clicking seemed to produce random results, but after a few tries I got the arch.

Not sure if there is a way to decide what comes up, or if it's random each time. It seems random. Just click a few times and maybe try to place the mouse in a different position. You should get the arch eventually. :)

you need to place the mountain 4 type block exactly as shown in the miniature image:

Then fill the intersection with block 6-3-7:

No you can click 1 to 3 times to alter its apparence, as there are three variantions built-in:

Voilà :3

Very cool. Thanks guys!
I was terraforming side by side instead of at an angle. :oops:
Thanks for the images TMarc.
I think people will find tips like these helpful.

Some platform blocks are very similar - or equal? ;)

What's the difference between the blocks
4-1-1 Image and 4-1-3 Image

I built them on the ground, in the air, zoomed in and out, drove on the top and between the two layers... but didn't find a difference (I'm sure, there is one ;) ). Perhaps it's only visible with higher graphic settings :?:
