Title: I need help!!!
Post by: KiaraTheLion on July 24, 2012, 11:16:55 am
Um... Whenever I try to open my map (Heightmap, greyscale, 513 and 513), then it just crashes no matter how many times I try! Help blease? It would be nice if someone would help me, I will try anything anyone tells me to do or try. I will tell you when it did work or no, I wont try when I can't do something that will help.

height maps should be

513x513
png file
one layer
greyscale
no alpha channel (this can be configured in the layers window of gimp by right clicking your image and deselecting the alpha channel option)

Well, I did make it 513x513, png (GIMP didn't let me save it so I had to change it to PNG after I saved it), saved it in terrains folder, typed name right when loading at the map maker, one layer, and no alpha channel. It just went POOF when I clicked something else other than the map terrain or how was it. Weird O_o

Afraid I'm confused, you're still having problems with it? or is it fixed?

Send me a PM with an upload of your height map; I'll see what's wrong with it.

Just for terrains needs to be (2^n)+1
for example: 129x129  257x257 513x513 1025x1025

You can send to Cloud or me, if u host the picture on a site like imgur or photobucket. And message us the link to it. mediafire works to if u have to.
