Title: Meshes go *Poof*
Post by: Silvertail12 on May 27, 2012, 09:40:47 pm
I'm not really sure on what I did, but a few days ago, I installed a map into the exports. I think I accidently clicked the 'Move and Replace' button when it asked me that 'My Trees' 'My Rocks' 'My "etc."' already exists.' I've been saving them because I made a map that I saved my downloaded meshes from here on the forum into the 'My Trees' and stuff.
I went in my map and some of the meshes were gone. The den, dead trees, and a flat rock were gone. I tried re-installing my zipped folder into the game again and see if the meshes would be re-installed but they are still gone.
How do I get them back?

I would suggest reinstalling the game completely. And by completely I mean deleting the entire FH folder before you go reinstall. And did that before myself - Reinstalling the game fixed the problem. I really don't think that there is any other way around it, sorry, though there may be one I'm unsure of.

WOAH! no need to re-install XDD

I had this probelm before, any items you download from others MUST be put in a custom group, for instance, if you download a tree mesh, DO NOT put it in MyTrees, otherwise it won't show up in game (it will show in map maker, but not IG), make another group (EX. Cutsom Trees [as a group name]) for your downloaded meshes, and this will fix your problem. ;3

I know Criminally_Insane XD
Thing is, I created this map in my previous game. Due to an error, I had to re-install the game and the map maker groups changed the way I had FH. I finally started to save things to my own separate custom group so the My Trees etc. are the way they came now. But, I still have the zipped file from the map I made, but when I install the groups and all, they are like the ones in the game and not the groups I had from before.
I doubt this made any sense O.o Does it? Sorry ^^;

If groups are still as was, should be able to load in object maker and remove?

I don't think so since re-installing gives me a refreshed group

Think I understand now. Even if you are using the old files, if they weren't placed in custom groups but are trying to use them in the map from where they had still be in default groups, you will not be able to see.

So...even if I re-install the map groups, I still won't be able to see?
