This darn Map... [[ Help please? ]]
« on: November 06, 2012, 09:01:23 pm »
I usually make maps- I love them. But, sadly, I worked my tail off on one lately and for some reason refuses to go into Map Maker.

  • Its 513x513
  • Its Grayscaled


It still refuses to work for me, though. The Terrain Alpha works perfectly for me, though. I would appreciate a ton of help on this.

Hm, does the heightmap have a transparent layer? If so, remove it.
You can do so by going to Layer > Transparency > Remove Alpha Channel.

I think, having alpha channels is diferent than having layers. Anyway... also should be .png format.
If you are not able to fix your height map, you can send it to me by PM and i return it to you fixed.

All the requirements for a heightmap can be found here as always and could be easily corrected by looking around some.

Manual page can be very handy for most users.
