## Getting Started

### Importing the Terrain into SimCity 3000

1. Save your terrain and note down the location. For example, c:\temp\myterrain.bmp.

2. Start SimCity 3000.

3. Choose to create a new city.

4. Set the size of the new city to be the same size as the terrain you created.

5. Once you have finished starting a new city, bring up the cheat window by holding down Shift-Ctrl-Alt-C.

6. Type load terrain <filename> into the cheat window. For example, load terrain c:\temp\myterrain.bmp.

7. Your terrain should now be visible. The small view in the bottom right corner does not refresh automatically, so rotate the map to force it to be updated.

More information may be found on the SimCity 3000 web site in the feature article Creating Custom Terrains.
