Title: Map Making Issues
Post by: XxInsaneAsylumxX on July 25, 2012, 12:24:07 am
OKay, so I made a map in Pixlr, learned it was supposed to be made in Gimp or Photoshop, so I edited it in Gimp. I try to put it on the game, but it just keeps crashing. I think it may be that I made it in Pixlr first, but idk. I really like how I made it in Pixlr, and I really dont wanna change it. I think the other reason why its crashing is because when I turn of the Alpha channel in Gimp, the image disappears, and I doubt its supposed to do that. When I do type in the name, which is EchoValleyTerrain (file name), its says it cant find it, so I just type in EchoValley, and it crashes. I have no clue what the issue is, but if I have to, Ill just make another map and try again. But, if theres a solution, then please do help me!

Remaking your map in GIMP may be your best bet if taking off the alpha channel is messing with it

height maps should be
513x513
png
one layer
greyscale
no alpha channel
