Title: How do I make the map appear in Cape of Distant Worlds?
Post by: Margaretheslyvia on July 29, 2020, 08:29:20 pm
So I recently downloaded a map made by someone else and I saved all the files in the original .RAR file to the exports folder. But idk what to do to get them to appear in the the Cape of the Distant Worlds? I just want to play my new map.

To get a map to show up you want to make sure that all of the .fhm .fho .fhs and .fhw are exported into the export folder. Sometimes maps will have extra folders to be placed into textures, particles, etc. Once you export everything there shut down the game completely to restart it and the portal should show up. They start closest to the bottom of the hill and can be difficult to spot at first.

I'd also like to mention that the default portals are incredibly hard to see. If you run around the area where the portals are supposed to show up, the title of the map might appear, so maybe try that if you've definitely got the map installed properly.

I reinstalled FH and I am also redoing my fursona preset (Currently working on the tail.). Also the Map I'm trying to install is End Of The World, but it doesn't seem to work tho. Probably gonna give up on the map part.

You moved .zip/.rar to exports or opened it and moved every file inside? You must do second way.
Also I recommend to download for example any red interface mod. Usually mods contains more visible version of portals. Tell us if that work ^^

I put another map files into the exports, I don't see a title come up at the top of the screen or a portal or anything. I need a visual guide idk what to do. I'm kinda of stupid.
