Map Maker Portal Issue SOLVED!
« on: October 04, 2011, 06:00:05 am »
Something simple really...I think. I'm tired and my brain's not working right, so please bear with me if this is something obvious.

I want my portal on my map to go to Cape of Distant Worlds, but I don't know what the file map name is, and I seem unable to find it in the FH directory. Typing in 'Cape of Distant Worlds' as the file name doesn't work, as I get "map file not found" when trying to go through the portal in my map.

fhCapeOfWorlds.fhm is the file name :)

If you need to find others they are in c/feralheart/media/terrains/fhmaps

Oh, thank you! Karma has been given.




Great! Map works, but now I have another problem. I enter my map, I end up at the tiptop of an unclimbable mountain. I return to Cape of Distant Worlds, and end up underwater in the far corner of the map. Why is this? In my map, I've been fiddling around with the destination coordinates, but nothing seems to be changing. :|

The best way to enter your coordinates on your map is in the mapmaker. Move the camera to where you want to come out and face the direction you want to come out of the portal at. Take a screen capture (prnt scrn next to f12) and paste into MS paint. Then you can copy the coordinates into the portal.

For the portal leading to the cape I'll do some research and try and find you some good coordinates.

Thank you so very much! *hugs*

Okay for going to the cape use X: 7000 Y:500 Z: 3000

If you change X to 7500 you should be a bit more centered, but I haven't tested it. Good luck :)

Okay, going to Cape now works properly, but I'm still having issues going into my map. I moved though, which is good, but it's still not where I want my character to be. x__x I fail.

Going to bed. Will try again tomorrow.

It takes some practice, keep at it! If you are still having problems tomorrow I'll put together a video tutorial for you if you'd like.
