I'm using territect to make a mountains biome preset, but the mountains have to be the sterotypical triangle-shaped pointy mountains.  I've been told that making really tall veins might give me triangle shapes but how high do the veins have to be?

P.S. I didn't know wherelse to publish this thread, so if it belongs in a different category, please put it there.

Wait, do you want them to look like stereotypical triangles or are you trying to avoid that? I'm assuming you want stereotypical triangles so here's some tips:

- A vein size of around 300 tall and 200 wide should probably get you a pretty good triangular mountain shape. Don't use a very high vein count and make sure that the veins are made of a solid material.

- If you want to add patterns or layers to the mountain, like an ice cap, you can surround the mountains created through the last step in a solid layer of something like DMND, then remove the original solid and draw layers inside it. Here's a small preset demonstrating this:

{"name":"Example Mountain", "data":"{\"versionMinor\":1, \"versionMajor\":1, \"passes\":[{\"bottom\":4, \"layers\":[{\"type\":190, \"variation\":0, \"mode\":1, \"thickness\":30}, {\"minY\":0, \"veinCount\":4, \"maxY\":15, \"type\":190, \"mode\":3, \"height\":300, \"width\":200}], \"settleTime\":0}, {\"bottom\":4, \"layers\":[{\"type\":28, \"variation\":0, \"mode\":1, \"thickness\":200}], \"settleTime\":0}, {\"bottom\":4, \"layers\":[{\"preserveProps\":false, \"oldType\":190, \"mode\":4, \"type\":0, \"percent\":100, \"inExisting\":true, \"inLayer\":false}, {\"type\":44, \"variation\":5, \"mode\":1, \"thickness\":35}, {\"type\":67, \"variation\":2, \"mode\":1, \"thickness\":35}, {\"type\":190, \"variation\":2, \"mode\":1, \"thickness\":35}, {\"preserveProps\":false, \"oldType\":190, \"inExisting\":false, \"type\":67, \"percent\":50, \"mode\":4, \"inLayer\":true}, {\"type\":190, \"variation\":2, \"mode\":1, \"thickness\":35}, {\"type\":179, \"variation\":5, \"mode\":1, \"thickness\":30}], \"settleTime\":0}, {\"bottom\":4, \"layers\":[{\"mode\":4, \"preserveProps\":false, \"oldType\":28, \"type\":0, \"percent\":100, \"inExisting\":true, \"inLayer\":false}], \"settleTime\":0}]}"}

 I want them to look like sterotypical triangles; Your idea for traingles worked.  I'm creating a flat ICE field with ROCK mountains on it.  The only thing I need to do now is somehow repalce the peaks (and only the peaks) of the mountains with ICE so that the mountains have icy peaks.  But I'm no sure how.  Also I'm a noob at coding, so I don't understand the preset listed above.

I've completed my preset using a series of modifications to the above preset; I promise to give credit.  I'm ready to share it, but I can only save locally.  I've seen global saves made with Territect, so how do I publish it?

Here it is if you want to take a look at it:

{"name":"Frozen Mountains", "data":"{\"versionMinor\":1, \"versionMajor\":1, \"passes\":[{\"bottom\":4, \"layers\":[{\"type\":190, \"variation\":0, \"mode\":1, \"thickness\":30}, {\"minY\":0, \"veinCount\":11, \"maxY\":15, \"type\":190, \"mode\":3, \"height\":300, \"width\":200}], \"settleTime\":0}, {\"bottom\":4, \"layers\":[{\"type\":28, \"variation\":0, \"mode\":1, \"thickness\":400}], \"settleTime\":0}, {\"bottom\":4, \"layers\":[{\"preserveProps\":false, \"oldType\":190, \"mode\":4, \"type\":0, \"percent\":100, \"inExisting\":true, \"inLayer\":false}, {\"type\":44, \"variation\":5, \"mode\":1, \"thickness\":35}, {\"type\":67, \"variation\":2, \"mode\":1, \"thickness\":35}, {\"type\":190, \"variation\":2, \"mode\":1, \"thickness\":35}, {\"preserveProps\":false, \"oldType\":190, \"inExisting\":false, \"type\":67, \"percent\":50, \"mode\":4, \"inLayer\":true}, {\"type\":190, \"variation\":2, \"mode\":1, \"thickness\":35}, {\"type\":179, \"variation\":5, \"mode\":1, \"thickness\":30}], \"settleTime\":0}, {\"settleTime\":300, \"bottom\":4, \"addGravityToSolids\":true, \"layers\":[{\"preserveProps\":false, \"oldType\":28, \"mode\":4, \"type\":51, \"percent\":100, \"inExisting\":true, \"inLayer\":false}]}, {\"bottom\":4, \"layers\":[{\"preserveProps\":false, \"oldType\":51, \"mode\":4, \"type\":0, \"percent\":100, \"inExisting\":true, \"inLayer\":false}, {\"preserveProps\":false, \"oldType\":37, \"inLayer\":false, \"type\":0, \"percent\":100, \"mode\":4, \"inExisting\":true}, {\"type\":97, \"variation\":5, \"mode\":1, \"thickness\":400}], \"settleTime\":60}, {\"bottom\":4, \"layers\":[{\"preserveProps\":false, \"oldType\":97, \"inLayer\":false, \"type\":0, \"percent\":100, \"inExisting\":true, \"mode\":4}, {\"preserveProps\":true, \"oldType\":44, \"inLayer\":false, \"type\":16, \"percent\":100, \"inExisting\":true, \"mode\":4}], \"settleTime\":300}, {\"bottom\":40, \"layers\":[{\"preserveProps\":true, \"oldType\":13, \"inExisting\":true, \"type\":16, \"percent\":100, \"mode\":4, \"inLayer\":false}, {\"preserveProps\":false, \"oldType\":179, \"inExisting\":true, \"type\":13, \"percent\":100, \"mode\":4, \"inLayer\":false}], \"settleTime\":0}]}"}

I don't know how to put it in that scrollable window thing above.

Ok, turns out I just wasn't signed in; my mistake.  Anyways, I published the save; here it is:
