Title: Custom Creation Screen Map
Post by: sanrio on June 10, 2017, 02:54:16 pm

So I've been wanting to make my own Character Creation Screen map for a while, but I have no clue how to do it.
I've searched around the internet without any luck.

Can someone tell me how to do it? Or at least point me into the right direction?

Here, I found a video that explains how to the make a Podium map (the character screen map). It's really just important you have the right sized map and add objects at the right coordinates shown in the video.

Thank you! The video looks very helpful but I'm encountering a problem.

I'm assuming there's sound in this video as there's nothing in the description, and I can't hear the audio.
Yet everything else is working. (Spotify, other YouTube tabs etc.)

So I've figured out that problem, now the only thing that's occurring is that my character floats?
I don't know what option is causing it to do this so if someone can tell me that'd be great!

Hmm, did you make sure to have a pure grey heightmap with the map height at 200? I'd get the same heightmap color as shown in the video.

Here's the heightmap I made real quick, it seemed to work fine for me.

Oh, I never made a heightmap, I'll be sure to make one.
Which folder do you place the heightmap in exactly?

You can just place the heightmap wherever you would place a regular map heightmap. I don't think there's really a specific spot heightmaps are supposed to go, though most people seem to put them in Feralheart>Media>Terrains. You can honestly just place them in any folder path that FH recognizes, but the terrains folder is probably the best option.
