Feral Heart

Okay I will try to be as detailed with this as possible.
Situation: I have built and exported some maps for testing and such, but specific maps will crash. For example, three of my maps work wonderful but one specific map will constantly crash on my friend.

I have tried to figure out why this might be happening. Their computer is better than mine so no issue there. The map that crashes for them works fine for me, all of them do <or else I would never have sent it to them> I even tried making sure their files were placed correctly <one particular friend whose map crashes on them lives rather close so I personally checked where their files were placed> I tried making sure they had some of the items on their comp already to see if it could be that. I even tried dumping ALL other export things OUT of their exports Accept for the particular map that crashes and its needed fho's. Still did not seem to work. If anyone has some suggestions I can try I would love to see if I can get it working for them.

Thanks in advance.

Okay I am having a huge issue now with custom made objects. I have been using ingame meshes like the grass mesh and the shrub mesh, I re-texture them and place them on a map in Map Maker. All objects appear and look fine when in mapmaker, but the moment I go into the game and onto that map the objects are either completely gone or moved. I can't seem to figure out why they are doing it. Is it clashing with the original stuff?

Any thoughts or ideas of what might be going wrong would be greatly appreciated. I have heard others having this problem as well and so far no real solutions.

Here are some images to better show my issue. This first pic is in map maker. You can see the snow shrub and the icicles normally.


This second pic is taken after I logged into the game and got on the map. The shrub is completely gone and the icicles have changed look and position. <it is night in game in this shot so that is why it looks darker.>

I like using the 'Show new replies to your posts' clicky up there, but there are some old topics I really don't care to keep getting newsflashes about. Is there any way to remove those from my list so that they can continue their conversations without it notifying me all the time?

Update Take a look on post 3. You will have to find a good texture for the Arena as its layout is a bit odd and I do not know enough about blender to fix it.

City Items! There will be an updated picture later that will show more of the City Items that are in the pack <when I remember to do it >.< >

WARNING: These particles, when exported, will make duplicates of themselves! I am not sure why this happens, if you are familiar with Dreks particles, this stuff does the same thing. You MUST delete the duplicates <they will have same name but with a _0 or _1 added> or else your FH will not allow you to get back on the game. Just go into your particles folder to find them.

Particles

mini bundle of random items. These are little quick things I did using the images and mats in game but just modified the particles. First up, a localized dripping particle. This one is like rain but is constant. Great for places where you need dripping water all the time. Like cave roofs! Next is the Lavadrip which is pretty self explanitory. Finally a random twinkle light area effect. This particle just causes some random stars to fade in and out in the designated area. Enjoy!

Fog Apparently the fog particle that was out there seems to have disappeared and everyone is asking for some fog so I whipped this one up real quick.

ERUPTION! A modification of the watersplash particle, this volcanic 'spew' has a large and small particle version as well as a delay so its not just a continual eruption.

Whirlpool Gah! Lookout! You may just get sucked into the abyss! This maelstrom might get you dizzy so be careful, it grows bigger and bigger and then <suspenseful pause> it disappears...

Geyser This one, like the eruptions, is just a modified watersplash, its just...a much bigger splash as well as a delay....wait for it.....BOOOM!!! Good ole faithful.

The Northern Lights!:: UPDATED :: I have improved the code so that they do not have a funky box around them when viewing them from a distance. Please re-download and replace the old with the new! I went with four different colors. Please remember that these are best visible at night when the sky is dark and overlapping them is not a good idea unless you want them to be big mega-bright blurs of color. Remember to look over the read me included in the download before you fire away questions or troubleshoot and as always....enjoy!!

Hail and Locust Weather Particles!!My first weather particles. I don't do these often as some people have trouble with weather on exported maps. Anyway, if you can handle it...Hail almost seems like snow, but it falls straight to the ground and quite fast! Locust Swarm was a great request, they are a bit on the white side but they are special XD This weather is great for a waste land maps or for random fun...enjoy!

Seahorses and Jellyfish Sorry the seahorses are so small in the shot, I will see about adding an extra image of a closeup of one. Anyway, there are also two types of jellyfish which are see through and sort of glow a bit.

Musical NotesWow...where is that music coming from? Pinpoint it using these fun musical notes <two different notes>

Critter BundleStarling Swarm, Frogs, Tuna and Salmon!
Link: http://www.mediafire.com/?ea12kpetjpea52o
StarlingSwarm! They take off in a tight group before spreading out and flying away <perhaps headed south for the winter?>

Frogs! Similar to the grasshoppers but a tad slower.

FISH! Albacore Tuna and Pink Salmon!! They swim in one direction and are best viewed from the sides. Keep in mind they are flat as well so view from above will look odd. Enjoy!


Thick black smoke, Lone hawk, dandypuffs and SwampBubbles all in one download!

Whats this? A bird? A plane? No its......no really it is a bird...actually a hawk.

Suggested by Lucky, I call these Dandypuffs as I really don't know what the technical name is for them otherwise they would be dandelion seeds and that's just too long of a name. Anyway, fun right?

Ye see thar, swamp gas! Watch out fer it fellers, you light a match near that an the whole durn place'll go up.


Seagulls overhead mateys and Oooo fairies!  Together in one bundle

GAH FLIES!!! When was the last time you had a BATH! XD figured these would be great around decaying bones, dead critters or other stinky locations. Butterflies! They spread out pretty wide and look awesome.
Oooh your technique has improved Graaaaashopppaaaah! Thanks to Thierry for providing code for this one <you would NOT believe how hard it was to take a shot of these quick little boogers XD
All three insects in a bundle! Enjoy! Link: http://www.mediafire.com/?irhaxeb1i1rjrbt



Cherry Blossom Petals. I managed to make it seem like the petals are being blown off a tree then gently scattering. This pic you can see one of the petals up close. The tree they are flowing off of is just a cherry blossom tree I messed with that has over sized blossoms XD I bundled this with the Autumn Leaves below.

Here are the Autumn Leaves. <<UPDATE: The strange extra colors/image at the edges has been repaired as well as the now flow steadily instead of in clumps. >>

Glowing Hearts <3  Love is in the aaaaaiirrr every where I look arooooound! XD Here they are as requested, glowing hearts that float lovingly about and then up into the sky.

Particle to do list
 
1. Dragonflies. Still Under construction but I think I am getting closer.

2. Hummingbirds. A request from another friend, sounds like this one might be a bit more of a challenge seeing as Hummingbirds are fast and change directions at a moments notice.

3. Open

4. Shooting Stars Requested by Cristy, I wonder if I can work in a comet as well

5. Dolphins and Sharks Another request, I will try playing around with jumping Dolphins and sharks who's fins will poke above the water and look all scarey. <jaws theme>

6. Ladybugs In flight of course, since I dunno about them crawling. I am tempted to do a mesh though...maybe.

7. multicolored bubbles this one should be pretty simple, it will just be a matter of time.

8. Moths Something to flutter around those streetlights perhaps?

9. Avalanche, Ocean Wave, Heat Wave A couple items I was already working on plus a very good suggestion by Twizzler.

I am very open to suggestions but please make them right here on the forum. If it sounds good I may add it to the list.

Upcoming Stuff


Okay for as long as I had this up I had pretty much forgotten about making it into a Geode...it was fairly easy though with Thierry's new shapes....


Here's just some fun things I did for some maps I'm doing.

A Stargate. It took a while to assemble, but they will be quite useful in my space map. UPDATE: The Stargate now has a bit of a facelift and a bit less lag-ability.
