Hight map
« on: February 19, 2013, 12:10:34 am »
Ok, so im making a new map for one of my warrior cats clans trying to copy the book and then some. I HAD problems with the color map but with a few edits fixed. But no matter what I REALLY cant change my hight map unless last resort because I dont wanna. And when I use the hightmap in map maker the game crash's, does a search why, cant find reson, then closes feral heart. And it only happens when I try to load the hight map. Can I get some help here? What could be the ishue? Is it because im using different shades of grey to white and black? I do have more shades than 3 if thats the problem. :(

Heres a link to the hight map on what it looks like for you to see:

(Please help AFTER looking. :( )

It has to be 513 by 513.

Make sure you went to advanced options, and clicked on grayscale instead of RBG color.

I think you did the size wrong, mostly, because that picture is just way too huge and it isn't square.

Also, make sure you have only one layer.

Yea, in short GaMzEe, my hight map doesnt work and when I try to use it my FH crashs. :) Was that clear???

-edit-

Ok, I think I MIGHT of resized it right. Idk for sure, trying now. Will edit this p[ost (Unless someone else posts while im gone and ill make a new post) of if it works or not... trying now.

-edit 2-

Failed, it didnt work so im resetting it to origanel before resize. Any other ideas?

-edit 3 (Thats alot of edits)-

No, it failed. Nothing works. Resizing adds a layer to make 2 and I need one so cant resize. When i do hreyscale it also adds a layer.-_- crash crash and crash, still not working.
