Even though i have been maknig maps for a long time. I never thought i would need to use waterfalls and other things. But i would like to learn hopefully to make my maps a little more intresting..

well what you can do you can expierment with different tiles and so forth and once you have done this put them together and make a dock , waterfall , and other cool features and yes use starforge because i think it has best terrain options

Use SF and take pieces of terrain and mix and match with the create brush thing. Watch Yoshi's building making tutorial, read threads here and experiment, that's all that can be done.

i use scm draft cuz it has pretty much all the terrain options that sf has and its isometrical works better. but i do still use sf if i need to use alot of custom tile stuff because sf's tile pallet works a bit better... i still like scmdraft better overall though...

StarForges custom tile option and ability to select sprites after placing them makes it way better than SCMD for doing complex extended terraint types, although I usually base mine on isometrical terrain, which is where SCMD gets a brilliant welcome.

I suggest that you view Yoshi's Video Tutorial on how to make scyscrapers.
There you will learn how to use Custom Palletes, Custom Brushes and stuff likie that.
