Exported a map=immediate feralheart crash :/
« on: October 31, 2012, 10:37:30 am »
Sorry i think this has been asked before once or twice but when I searched it I didn't get any results.
I recently exported a new map, and whenever I open feralheart it crashes seconds later. I made a restore point on my comp. just before exporting my map, so I CAN restore it, but I'd perfer not to. I can't re-install feralheart. What do I do to fix feralheart? I've opened it 3 times now and the same thing keeps happening. Can someone help me?
Once the problem is fixed this poll may be locked ;)
Oh and 1 more thing, I have exported maps before, but this is the first time my feralheart keeps crashing

Make sure when you edited it was possibly a 513x513 greyscale image. If it was something different it won't work - You also need to make sure your editing software supports Greyscale :) And that there is only one layer. (Merging layers/flattening layers is still the same, it won't work) I use GIMP, so there's not much to say about that xD Just be sure to double check. :3

Yeah I used Greyscale and it only had one layer :/
(and it was 513x513)
In the map maker it was VERY laggy so maybe that has somnething to do with it?

Did it have many items?
Or maybe this has something to do with the game itself, because since there are SO many members around now, the FH coding might have got confused and probably can't deal with the exports. Maybe that's the case..

But otherwise, this happened to me before - and it was 513x513 greyscale. This happens to lots of members actually.. I'm not positively sure what happened though. So maybe you should swim around the boards and see if there was an answer on how to deal with this problem (there is quite a lot of help boards about this problem, so you'll PROBABLY find an answer. x3)

I think your problem is the exporting bug with particles.

Check your FH/Media/Particles and your FH/Media/Objects/My_Objects folders for any double particle files.

They will have _0 or _1 tacked on to the end. Delete any duplicates.

@Kashii-Spazz

In my map I had used all of the feralheart items (that you get when downloading feralheart), the 'Noobplants", WombatAnimalPack, and some food pack (all made by Jayfeather55)
And I did use those in my last map. The only difference is, that I used a custom terrain made by a friend. (I got the terrain when downloading their map then I put it into terrains. Then when I was making my map, I saw (ex: grass_7) in my terrains in the map maker.) Maybe I should copy my feralheart folder, put it on my pendrive, and then delete the old folder then re-install feralheart? I've uploaded my map on mediafire so I can re-download my own map if needed XD


@CloudFish

No I looked in my particles file (just like you said) and there was only:
-aura (material file)
-aura.particle (particle file)
-splash (png file)
-star (png file)
-water (material file)
-water.particle (particle file)
-watersmoke (png file)
So what do I do?

Oh, and when I re-install feralheart will I have to add all the meshes back into the map maker?


EDIT: Oh! I think I found the answer! One person just posted something about using custom terrains. They said that when they used a terrain a friend gave them, It screwed up their fh and they had to re-install. I guess thats what I have to do.

Oh haha, well good luck! If you need/still want all your terrains/objects, etc. then just save the folder as Feral-Heart and copy-paste them back in. xD

D: ... Well.. I suggest searching for doubles once more, like CloudFish said? And also - wait umm... I'll test the map maker out for you so if I find any problems, I'll find out how to fix it and tell you.
(Because the same stuff happens to me)
