How do you share maps with your friends?
« on: February 09, 2012, 03:20:47 am »
Well, I asked alot of my friends, but none of them seem to be a lot of help. How do you share maps with your freinds? Like, is it on FH or the internet to get a map link for your friends? Where do you go to get the link? Please help.

Load your map in Map Maker and click the Export button.
In your Feralheart folder in exports you will find your exported files.
Files include .fhm (The map itself), .fho (The object groups used), .fhs (The sky you used), .fhw (The weather cycle you used).
Find these files and put them all into a folder.
Compress your folder then upload it to a file sharing website such as mediafire or zippyyshare.

Drag all these files out onto your desktop. Right click on the .fhm file. Once you have right clicked on it, hover you mouse over 'send to' and then click 'Compressed (zipped) Folder'. A message might pop up, click yes. Then, drag all the other files into this zipped folder as well.

Click it once, THEN right click it? You might need a system like WinRAR.

Easy steps.

Step 1: Make a .Zipped folder on your desktop. [Right click your desktop and select 'New >> Folder' then right clock the folder and select 'Compressed Zip Folder']
Step 2: Export your map & list everything that has been exported.
Step 3: Go to FeralHeart >> Exports & find all the files that were exported .fhm, .fho, .fhs, .fhw.
Step 4: Put them in the folder you made on your desktop [If it shows the folder as a WinRAR or 7Zip then open up the Zipped folder and drag the files from exports into there.]
Step 6: Make a document in word or notepad with instructions of what to do. [E.g. 'Place all files into Local Disk (C:)\FeralHeart\Exports.] and put it into the Zipped folder.
Step 7: Upload the folder to mediafire or to another file sharing website.
Step 8: Share the link to your friends

I hoped this helped you. If you have any more questions, just ask away.

Yes, michelle. As long as they have the exported files in their Exports folder then they will have access to the map ;)
