Where does each map file go?
« on: March 30, 2013, 01:58:40 pm »
My friend made a map, but it did not come with a read.me - I was wondering where these different files go?

FHO
FHS
FHM
FHW
SKY file
Thank you :)

You install downloaded maps like so:

1.) Follow the "read me" file if there is one (in your case there is none) and place the files in the places where it says or just place all the files into the "Exports" folder

OR

If placing the map files into the Feral Heart "Exports" folder didn't make it work right than try placing the files as so:
FHM files go into FH>Media>Terrains
FHO files go into FH>Media>Objects
FHS/FHW go into FH>Media>Sky
MP3 files go into FH>Media>Sounds/Music
Then restart the game
Hope that helps :)

Did you get any specific error messages when it crashed? And when did it crash? Did it crash once you went through the portal of the map in the Cape or your game crashed when you tried to start it up? I suggest changing you rendering subsystem from the main menu. Click where it says "options" then select "video" and change your rendering subsystem from OpenGL to Direct3D9. If you crashed upon entering the map it's possible that your friend used some very large custom meshes. I hope that helps. Let us know how things work out.

There is a exporter glitch that probably makes the game to crash. If the map has custom weather, you also need to have all the custom .weather .cycle and .particle files.
And you can dump all FHO, FHS, FHM and FHW files in to exports.
