Aligning Distant Terrain

The largest objects you will find in CAW are the distant terrain objects. These are found under the metadata tab. Each distant terrain is designed to fit around the edges of a large (2048x2048) world, and each has a specific theme that lends itself to certain kinds of worlds more than others.

Custom

The following distant terrains are extracted from store worlds or otherwise custom-created. They need to be installed using a mod framework, and people who use worlds with them will also need to have them installed.
