The two fields you will be focusing on are (Basic) Creep Edge Normal Map, and (Basic) Creep Settings +/- Now find a non-ex2 tileset (for example, Agria (Jungle)), copy the two fields and paste them in your terrain type. The fields should change to Assets\Textures\CreepEdgeNormal, for CreepEdgeNormalMap, and a series of .18s instead of .20s in Creep Settings Finally, save and reload your map, and the creep should look back to the old style. Ingame you can also: Set Terrain to "low" Find creepnormalmap=1 in variables.txt Thanks for reading, Happy Mapping!

I personally don't see myself using the old model, and I suppose I don't mind if other people feel differently to me, but if people start kvetching and moaning about my choice of creep map, they will receive a hearty scoff. Or perhaps a guffaw. Remains to be seen.
