Map not Exporting
« on: September 13, 2012, 04:29:21 am »
I've been trying to export it for a while, but whenever it finishes loading all files it crashes. The error "Cannot find material. for GLBuildings!" is shown. I've done what I can, but I'm not sure how to fix this. Help please?

This is because you might be missing the texture for one of the buildings in the object group. When exporting maps always have objects with textures and are not missing any, same with mesh's.

When i downloaded Glaves converted buildings there were missing textures and some objects didnt show because there was no mesh. What i did was delete objects in the list that were missing meshs and added textures to the meshs through Object Maker.

I would give it a try at that, let me know how it works out ;) Ill tell you how to do this if you dont know.

Will be inactive due to work and exams.

If you haven't used the objects with the missing textures in your map, it may not matter if some of them don't export. Test the map ingame; it might be fine.

I did what Ingredient said, the error is gone but the game still crashes once the exports bar is full. Anything I could do to fix this? >_<

I found that while it's exporting your particles file fills up with _0 and _1. I had to open the files window while the map was exporting and delete the particles for it to continure exporting.


You are amazing <3

Odd..I checked my Particles file and I don't seem to have that problem. Any other suggestions?

Here see if this might help. 
Try going into:
C:\FeralHeart\media\particles

and delete any possible file that has the name (something)_01 _02 etc. If you do not have any that isn't the issue and you should leave them be, only delete if there's duplicates.

Also as a sidenote if you didn't know, if you have made a map inside the game that has a portal working from cape, and you export it.

The export will work like a map in cape on it's own! This means that you will have 2 identical maps unless you remove 1 of them. So if you remove the exports thinking the map will be gone, the map in the map maker will still give you a portal in cape, same thing would be the other way around.

If your crashes aren't sorted a fresh install of the game should sort it for you.


You are amazing <3

Yeah, my Particles files is clean of that. I'll reinstall my game then, hopefully that will work. I don't understand, everything works fine though. The meshes, objects, etc. o.3
