yeah its all the right stuff.

i can assure you i did nothing wrong xD ive been making maps since january and my most recent one is fairly well known to be the rocky's pride map lmao

everything is as it should be.

but i think it has something to do with FH+

Maybe your height map is too detailed and your computer can't handle it. Try loading just a simple one which only has like, a river and a few mountains, or only a complete flat one at all. If that works, your other map is too detailed.

there is absolutely no way this map is too detailed.

i simplified it down to shapes and it still complains.

yet the simple map with a river works fine.
and yes i renamed the file, made new ones, and ect. ugh >_>

Weird. Did you try loading the height map on the normal FH? I don't have any other suggestion apart from that..

nah. i dont wanna bother with it.

We need to know if the problem is with the height map or FH+, so if you'd like some solutions you need to "bother with it" and try some different things. If the map crashes FH, we know it is the terrain, and not the game itself. The more we know, the better able we are to help you, that's why someone asked if it worked on FH.

Also, try making a new height map with a flat color and seeing if it works.

okay well i tried it on the regular FH then. and it did work.

i have a strange feeling that it may just be my computer hating me as usual but im gonna keep playing around with it.

but a white heightmap with a black line shows up just fine by the way.

its just the one map and any duplicates i make of it for some reason.

Try saving it as a jpg and then opening the jpg and resaving it as a PNG, sometimes this helps.

If it still doesn't work, there may be something wrong with your FH+ install or download. They will be releasing the new one soon though, so you may just have to wait it out.
