Title: Game troubles!
Post by: Soulwish on November 01, 2011, 02:24:04 pm
Yesterday I made a map and tried to implement it. I went to Tools, then Map Maker, and then the entire thing just crashed. Then today I tried again. I also tried Item Maker. Both made the game crash. I tried to play, so I logged in, then it crashed. What am I supposed to do? :'(

I'm not really sure to be honest since it probably could have been a lot of different things.
Do you recall doing anything particular when you tried to make that map? Also in which way you mean "implement it"? Adding it to cape or?

I used Paint to make the map, and saved it in PNG....
Anyways, I mean, when I go to tools and go to map maker, it crashes before I can do anything. And since then, it's just been crashing. :'(

Well, to make one thing clear right away, you can't make heightmap in Paint as it seems, this always causes crashes to the map you are meant to load.
You might have put the heightmap in incorrectly as well, cause the game shouldn't crash until you actually try to load the given map. The map maker and multiplayer should work all fine if I remember right. Maybe you did something with objects as well?
If I were you I'd change back things as they were, getting files back in place and such(Can't know what you did for certain) and then get GIMP once the game is working fine for you, try to make a heightmap with that instead.
As far as I know there's no layer options in paint, neither is there a grayscale mode, these are both needed to be checked up on before trying to use a heightmap.

But that still doesn't help me understand why it won't let me play anymore. :'( It crashed again when I tried to play today.
