Custom Map Problem
« on: June 13, 2012, 02:09:39 am »
Hey everyone! So I've been working on a large map for quite some time, and I've really gotten far into it in my opinion. Just today though, when I tried to load the map in the map maker, Feralheart closed abruptly with no error message. I tried again and got the same result. I haven't deleted any file of the map, so I'm not sure why this is happening. The map itself is 50,000 width and 3,000 height, but this has never happened before. I've had the map for about a month or so. There aren't that many items in it at the moment either, or not enough that "should" crash it. Any suggestions? Thank you! (P.S. It seemed that this crashing started right after the server problem. Would that have anything to do with it?)

Shouldn't have anything to do with map maker and server restarts/down-time, as map isn't saved on server until brought in-game.

Should go through map folder for that map, make sure are no doubles.

Check objects and particles just in case, though I doubt this is case. Does it happen as soon as you enter/load map, or are you looking at sky?

Could also be height map might have gotten moved around.

Thank you and yes I will give everything a check. It closes as soon as I hit "load" in the map maker. Very odd indeed, as it hasn't happened before.

Alright, will look for other similar problems if suggestions didn't help.

Ah yes indeed. I think it did happen to be a problem with the server because after they stopped working on it, the map started working again. Thank you so much for the help however :)
