FeralHeart Crashes
« on: August 13, 2011, 05:11:59 pm »
The game crashes when I try to load a new height map into "Map Maker." I watched the tutorial for height map crashing help... and I learned that I have to copy it and paste it into a new image. But I use MS Paint (Netbook version, which doesn't have many options other than a few brushes, an erase tool, color picker, etc....), and I don't think it will allow me to copy the map into a new image.

Also, the game wouldn't stop crashing last night right before the game title appeared. I reinstalled it and it was working fine again until just now. ._.

I have GIMP already, but I don't know how to use it really. xD

Paint isn't reliable for making heightmaps, because you can't set the image to greyscale mode, which it NEEDS to be in order to work. I suggest downloading GIMP and working with that. It is 100% free :)

Well, actually, I drew a height map on Paint with different shades of gray (isn't that grayscale?), and it worked. I don't remember what I did exactly. But I'll learn how to use GIMP sooner or later. xD I think it might crash because it's too much to handle for the computer? I don't know. :/

Greyscale is a mode, like RBG mode. That's odd that it worked xD
