Here's a tutorial on how to make rivers and / or streams in CCG, CCG:ZH.
STEP 1: Dig a path where your river would flow using the terrain tools (under Texture Sizing, top left corner):
STEP 2: Now the actual river making begins! First off, make a square water using the river tool manually like so:
STEP 3: Select the ENTIRE water polygon you've created. Then click the "River" button on the water tool:
Remember: NOT THE POINTS!
Now, your river would flow...in a mess...So, how to change the flow to the way you want it to flow? Simple, play with the polygon points 'till the desired effect (trial and error). For example, the red arrows is where I've moved the river points:
STEP 4: Now to increase the river length! To do that, determine where your river flow ENDS. Once done, add two polygon points where the river flow basically ends. The end result would be something like this:
Step 5: Now select the newly added points and slowly follow the path you've created. Like what i've done here:
Repeat Step 4 and 5 to extend your river to something like this:
Congratulations! You've just created a river system using the water tool in Worldbuilder for Generals! Now feel free to experiment with the steps and with trial and error, you can create something like this:
