Title: How can I use more than 3 terrain textures? *HELPED*
Post by: Shazadah on August 17, 2013, 04:32:16 am

Yes, its me, yet again asking for help. Sorry to be such a bother with all these questions...

Anyways, while playing around with FH's Map Maker, I discovered you can have up to more than 3 types of terrain textures on your map. But I do not know how to do this, I've been looking to use more than 3 terrain textures on my maps for a while now, and would love to know how to do this! It would come in handy for the few maps I have been working on for the past 3 days or so.

You can use more than 3 Textures by looking it up on YouTube on How to make a Map Mask. A Map mask is a terrain that you make with your art skills with the basic RGB Colors. RGB Meaning Red, Green, Blue are the colors that determine the ground's color. BAH, Just look the Tutorial up on YouTube or read from the forum.

(Someone correct me if I'm wrong) I'm afraid the other three terrains are bugged, and don't work properly for the current version off FH. If in some way they would work for you, I would not be able to tell you the color codes for them anyways. As far as I know, the easiest way to use multiple textures is to divide your map into two separate ones, with different terrains for each.

Well I have already searched youtube for how to use more than 3 textures and didn't find anything, I already know how to use the basic 3 texture method, but I would like to use more than that such as 4 for example.
