Making a Map?

[Ducky]

I'm utterly lost in the world of map making. T_T"  I can't get terrain maps to work or mask maps. I don't know how to put music in. It's ridiculous! D; The map help in the other part of the site isn't helping me very well.. I'm trying to make a map where players can go to listen to music and sing along and dance, BUT.. It needs to have multiple songs in the backround. D; One music would be fine if I could figure out how to put it there. I need major help! I can't find any tutorials that would suggest any answer to this so that's why I'm starting a new question. Frantically messing with map maker, Ducky.

i can probably help you with the music situation. If you have a mac, that is D8. I use garageband to make music then export it to itunes so its a .mp3 file, then put it in the fh music file

I don't have a mac D: I have a windows PC. :C And I don't have any programs that work with music besides downloading it and moving it to certain files. *I have WinRaR* o3o

I can help you a bit with the terrain maps and the masks. c: Also, I'll tell you how to put music in.
In the map maker (tools, map maker) in the second tab there should be a form that says music. Put the music file you want to use in C:FeralHeart(or FHPLUS)/Media/Music and then put in the file.(Ambient.mp3, etc.) It should work. Be sure to save it. You do the same thing with the terrain and masks once you have them made. Save them as PNG's and put them in your Media/terrain files and make sure they're named like mapnameTerrain.png and mapnameMask.png or else there's a chance it won't work. If you're having trouble /making/ the terrains and masks, I have a secret that'll help you. :3 If you have a msn, tell me, because it'll help me with explaining to you how to make them.

Oh okay, Thanks! Kinda confusing but I'll read it slowly when I get to it XD Thanks SO much! *Nuzzle* ;3

[Ducky]

Okay when I put the music in my Feralheart/media/music and I use it in the map when I go to test it I hear NOTHING.. Not even the original music D:

[ringoluver]

Nonono it doesnt go in music. It goes in sounds.

[Ducky]

Okay.. do I still type like 14.Funhouse.mp3 even though it doesn't have mp3 in the name and it'll still work? *Confuzzled* o_e" OH MAI GOD IT WORKED THANKS! WOOT MOD! >83

[Jadeviran]

Sorry for the mistake! xux; And no, you put the file type after it. Let's say it's a .wav file.
It would be filenamehere.wav or filenamehere.mp3.

If I want a whole group of music to play.. Like the Pink collection, how would I get that to a folder in Feralheart so that it would play in my map? -_O"
