Title: Height map not working
Post by: Citrines on December 01, 2014, 05:05:26 am
Hi all!  ;D

I have a small problem that is bugging me and so I came to the forums to try and fix it. I tried searching for older forums that might have related to this problem but found none.

The problem is my map. I created a map today and found that in-game, my objects, water, everything is floating in air while the terrain is all flat. It's quite odd and I have no idea how to fix it. In the map maker the map is perfect. The objects are in place and the terrain has the mountains/hills that I put in. It only doesn't work in-game, any ideas?

All responses are accepted with utter gratitude. <3
Also, sorry if this isn't the right section to post in, it's late and my brain is shutting down.  ::)
Thank you!  ;D

To post photos I'd suggest this tutorial: http://www.feral-heart.com/index.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=2&jfile=index.php&topic=8658.0 (http://www.feral-heart.com/index.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=2&jfile=index.php&topic=8658.0)

However, I prefer http://imgur.com/ (http://imgur.com/) instead of Tinypic -used in the tutorial.

Regarding your problem, can't say I'm sure of a solution but a screenshot would be helpful :3

Good luck!

Have you tried to export said map again? Maybe that will fix it. Remember to always create A backup folder located somewhere on your hard drive with the files you're working with when creating Feralheart Maps and Presets.

Thank you for the tutorial. It helped and now I can put in screenshots. ^^ I posted a screenshot of my problem when you're in the game and in the map. FH just might not like it.

Try exporting it or entering the map files back into your FeralHeart Folder.

If the above solutions don't work(tho I bet they will <3) you can always try re-entering the terrain name and re-exporting the map.

Good luck on the map tho~

I exported it a few times but it didn't work. :c But now it does. I guess my computer must've played a part in this because it starts working after I restarted my computer about 2 times.  :P But thank you!
