Map Problems
« on: December 13, 2015, 04:01:48 pm »
Hi, I've been having the same problem with the Map Maker. When I try to give the Height Map section a Height Map, it crashes the game. The Alpha Map section will take both the RGB and Grayscale images just fine. I can't seem to figure out the problem, so sorry if its really obvious!

Are you using GIMP? I recommend using GIMP for heightmaps.
This way you can make sure the image is the correct size and in greyscale mode. :3

No, I cannot get GIMP to run on my computer. But I am using Paint Tool SAI.

Woah, the biggest mistake is to use paintool SAI, because the thing is that you cannot put it as a greyscale canvas. I recommend you to use Gimp only. Try doing it on Gimp again and tell me how it goes. Here are some tips to help you:

Oh, I didn't know that! I'm sorry. I redid the images in GIMP and it worked perfectly! Thank you so much!
