Feral Heart

So, it would be really awesome if there was some additions to the map maker. A group selective tool which lets you select a area of objects (one way by clicking and expanding a box over the objects you want to select) and a 'clone' tool letting you clone the objects and move them around the map. And a 'group' tool to group objects together. I think this would make placing foliage and rocks much easier while making maps!

When people whispered you, or just addressed you telling you that you copied them,and you didn't, what are your thoughts?

Do you argue with them and tell them you didn't
Or do you try and work it out, saying that you must have the same way of design?
Or, are you like me and get offended? I shouldn't do so, but I do 

Hello guys, and welcome to my easy to follow tutorial on map making!
I know there are dozens of map making tutorials, but I wanted to add to the community by making my very own.

Firstly, we will start on the Height Map. What is a height map, Tiffany, you ask?
A height map is basically how the terrain is gonna turn out on your map. If you go onto a feralheart map, it's not all flat, is it? Most maps have hills, mountains, dips, quarries, etc. We will start with a basic map since you are probably new to making maps if you are reading this.

The only program you will need (other then FeralHeart, ofc) is Gimp. Now, it doesn't matter what version of gimp you use, I'm currently using Gimp 2.8. Here is a link to download Gimp.  http://www.gimp.org/downloads/
There are other programs you can use to make a Height Map, but I would say Gimp is the easiest to use.

Open up gimp. It will look like this:


You see that file button? Well, click that , and click 'New...' on the top of the options.
You need to now make the Height and Width '513, 513' Because this is what your starting width and height will be. But do not worry, your map won't be as small as that. Don't worry about that for now, though!
Click the (+) Additional Options and change the Color Space from RGB to Grayscale. If you don't do this, your map won't work.
RGB is for the terrain mask which we will do later! I know you are very eager.


Let's get on the fun stuff! Now, here's the key which you must remember. White = Highest point of the map and Black = Lowest point of the map. Basically, you are painting your own terrain. Let's start off with a black canvas.
So you get an image, a fully black canvas would look like this on FeralHeart:



~TO BE CONTINUED~

I've never had this problem before.

I tried reinstalling FeralHeart many times, but it never worked. And yes - I did delete ALL  the files upon uninstalling.
Please do not suggest reinstalling because I have done this round about 5 times.

I am wondering if this has happened to anyone else because as soon as I go on it, I am met by this;

Feralheart not Responding - I then have to manually close it because the x button doesn't respond either.

I have nothing installed in my markings, items, etc, no mods to see if that worked.

I tried restoring my computer to a earlier date but it still doesn't work.

Please, if anyone else knows how to fix this, please leave a response, I love feralheart and it would be sad to not be able to play it again --
But if you think it's my laptop, please respond. I have a Sony laptop which it is fairly new, I've had it for about 5 months.

Zoo Tycoon 2 and Wildlife park 2 are both my favourite genres of games. I love simulation games and sandbox games such as these and I have created so much parks it is unbelievable, but especially on Zoo Tycoon xD I love the creative aspect on ZT2, but also love the realistic-ness and the accuracy on Wildlife park 2 because it focuses on not just the animal's satisfaction, but the plants.

In my opinion, I prefer ZT2 because it gives you more freedom building your park whereas Wildlife park 2 has more of ready-made buildings and not many variety of decorations and animals you can use for your park.

I would love to hear what you guys prefer!
