Map Maker Problems - Can't Load Terrains!
« on: July 23, 2014, 12:17:18 am »
Whenever I put the name of a Terrain, the game crashes. The funny thing is that some work, others don't.

The maps that I barely put any effort on works, the ones that are well detailed and done crash all the time. Just today I made 5 different maps and they all crash my game!

I heard it's duo to the temp, but if it is, how come some of my old maps.png work?

Ugh.. I really wanted to make a new map...

Maybe re-instaling FH? But I have plenty of stuff... Maps, Mass Markings, Items, Presets...

If they are 512x512, try increasing them to 513x513.
Also a little technique that works, if you are using GIMP, copy the image, then press Ctrl + Shift + V (paste into new canvas), then go and flatten the image, then export.
Some maps just take some messing around with.

Make sure that it is:

-Greyscale
-Square (Try 513/513)
-Saved as a .png
-Has all transparency removed
-Has one layer

Hope this helps!

I just posted this in a thread a few days ago, make sure that the heightmaps includes everything I listed above. Hope this helps!

I've been having the exact same problem except that the map I'm working on is my very first map. (Idk If I can call it that because I keep making maps but none of them work) I have all the requirements met, I even uninstalled and reinstalled FH and it still doesn't work. Do you think it might be because detailed maps are to much for FH to process? If so I think that should be fixed cuz I want an unique map D:.

~edit || Also all the tutorials that FH has and all the guides that it has, I've followed their instructions and it won't work. || (Sorry for posting this on your thread but I figured I'd let you know you aren't alone on this and I didn't want to make another thread since you already have one that states pretty much the same problems)
