Title: Graphics not showing up- Avatar loading but nothing else
Post by: Tanoren on July 22, 2016, 05:49:29 pm
Hello. :) I'm trying to play FH again after not playing in yeeears. I didn't know my old account info on my old inaccessible email so I just signed up again a few months back.

So I log in, and get this.

I remember it having graphics panning around.

None here either. :(

And this is what happens.

I did reset the home (as this and 2 others were characters from when I created the account pre-update).

I tried both the torrent and the web download.
My graphics card is up to date and relatively new- bought this laptop a few months ago new. Everything else works fine for me.

What is happening and how can I fix it?

Thank you in advance. :)

You could try changing your rendering system, or reinstalling Feralheart again.

Go to FH > media > terrains > fhmaps. There should be files called something like "fhBonfireIslands.fhm" etc. Are those all there?

Aye, it sounds like you're missing the map files! Do as Kiki said and make sure you have a folder called fhmaps. It oughta look like this when you open it up~

I came across this and just quickly put all of the map files into a download for ya >HERE< (http://www.mediafire.com/download/d20i7ar311bdcnb/FHMaps.zip)

Edit: I just took a look at your own files and you need to click on the media folder at the top, then go to terrains, and then click fhmaps. They won't be in the main FH folder.

It looks like you're also looking in the FH main folder, not the terrains folder. When you download the map files from Arctic, make sure to place them in the terrains>fhmaps folder. If there isn't a fhmaps folder, just create one and name it that.

That's what I have.

Make sure you are sending the character's home as well as resetting the home.

Wow you guys are fast, thanks. Yeah I realized I was in the wrong folder right after posting and updated it. I apologize.

I reset and sent them all home again and still have the same problem. Even with them not in home, would the graphics on the login page still be black?

Depends on if you have a Podium graphic/mod or not. Doesn't look like you have one. You better get them downloaded if you want to not see black anymore! :) [For the character section.]
Here are a few;

The login page shouldn't be black. The only reason it'd be black is if you're missing the watermill.fhm Did you download Arctic's maps and put them in your fhmaps folder?

Ah, thanks pkf7! I remembered it had imagery by default when I last played.

Yep. I have them all.

Try downloading them and replacing all of the files.

If your maps are missing, your resources code is probably incorrect as well. Download this and place it in your main FH folder and click "Replace" when prompted.
