How to Apply a Custom Map
« on: January 29, 2020, 08:16:05 am »
Could anyone do a updated step by step on how to apply a custom map to your feral heart files please? Preferable for Windows 10.

Place all the files for the downloaded map/s into Feralheart >> exports. Once you've done that, restart your game (if you're online) and head to Cape. The portals to your newly installed map/s will be there.

The map may have instructions on either the DeviantArt/forum topic, or a readme file inside the zip/rar. I'm not sure that any of the existing map installation tutorials are outdated.

If the map has more files than .fhm, .fho, and .txt...
The images usually belong in "FeralHeart/media/terrains/textures".
The material files belong in "FeralHeart/media/materials".
I think the .sky files go into "FeralHeart/media/sky".
The .mp3 files belong in either "FeralHeart/media/sounds" or "FeralHeart/media/music", the tutorial that came with the map usually says where to put .mp3 files, but you can put mp3 files in both of those folders if the tutorial that came with the map is gone or doesn't specify where to put them.

My presets.

Good things take time, so I'll take an eternity and create something so good that the human brain can't handle the sheer goodness of it.

Was going to add all that info if they had a map that had files other than that of the export ones, but you already got it FlyingGrass, thanks!
