Title: Map Problem.
Post by: StarTehWolf on August 16, 2011, 07:25:36 pm

I saved a map and all, also Gave the link to the download to my friends. I told them what to do but they don't see it..?
First of all, Do you have to have a cetain file type? Cause mine is .fhs I just wanted to know...

.fhs is not a map. It's the sky file for a map.

.fhm is the exported map. So if you meant that they can't enter your map then it's because of that.

However, if you meant that they can't see the sky, try re exporting it again and then tell them to place the new file into their sky folder located in the media folder.

If you have a working map inside the map maker you first have to make sure you have a portal for it inside the cape.

This you do by entering the world tab and then checking the box "has portal" and writing the coordinates for where you want to end up in the map when you enter it from cape.

Once that's done, you should be able to see a portal in cape linked to your map.

After that you just open up the map maker, and export it. Once the export is done, your files will lay in the "exports" folder. Copy all the files needed for the map such as
.fhm = the map
.fho = the objects
.fhs = the sky file

etc.

and send them to your friends. Tell them to place it in the exports folder.

I tired that and then nothing happened. I mean, the portal never appeared. Maybe the number were too low..? I
 just confused... Sorry.

Try again then xD

You need to fill all fields when you check "Has portal" in the map maker, also, don't forget to save the map after you made a portal for it. If you don't know how to get the correct coordinates, just write
100
100
100
100

This is really the only way you do it.

If you didn't even have a portal in cape, no wonder your friends couldn't enter it :3

Still no portal inside the world. :\ Hmm... I tried the codes, and there is a portal in Cape...

When you check has portal there will never be any portal inside the map that's in the map maker.

THe only time you will see this is when you enter the game in multiplayer and then cape, also from inside the map you made when in MP.

Never when playing in the map maker. That only works on gates, and gates aren't even usable now in your situation.

Okay, Got it.... But I saw the portal (In the game) And It was under the place I started XD *Facepalm* I couldn't get out so I clicked the feather thing.

And I can't find the files. Do you know where they would be? :]

Once you export a map, all the files exported end up in the exported folder. The very same folder which you would need to place downloaded maps in.

Thanks, Red. I believe I got it to work, since all those files are there. :3 Thanks again.
