I don't know if it gets any easier than GRHMEdit. :scratch: The only feature, that's a bit more complex is the hmap gradient tool, but that is not essential for most tracks IMO, only for perfect banking.

What exactly are you having problems with?

I guess, that lack of patience is the problem. ;)

Just spend more time by investigating, how things are supposed to be used before saying, that they are unusable, chicken. Then your track will be much better by every try. :bg:

I've downloaded the track you posted here. All I can say is, Ivo is 100% right in his post above mine. :geek:

Just because you don't know how to use a tool it doesn't mean it's useless. :really: And please, watch your language, you're not in a bar, this is a public forum with rules you agreed to respect when registering.

Just get Paint.net. It's free.

Well... Uhh... I'm going to give a very good hint for this problem (regarding gimp and all of the other software): practice. These tools are just that, tools. They won't just magically create what you have in your mind. You have to use time and practice to get it done.
