Putting in Height Map Crashes FH .. please help?..
« on: December 20, 2011, 06:43:06 pm »
Okay.. so when I type in my terrain as in: "TestTerrain.png" on the height map place, FeralHeart crashes altogether and says a problem has occured and I don't know what's causing the problem. Could someone please help?

 -- Should I redownload FeralHeart?

Please respond soon!

Thanks,
    Zispy

Make sure you have
1.it on Grey scale
2. have it the same size on both sides (513x513)
3. and have it as a .png file

if you have all thoughs perfect then its a bug.

i suggest (if you have all thoughs correct) you put all needed files in a new folder, and uninstall Feral-heart and reinstall.

Make sure that....

-It is in Greyscale mode
-513x513
-One layer only
-Saved as a .png format
-Saved in the Terrains folder possibly in the name of your map folder
-If you use GIMP and you get this message


Click "Export" then another message will appear and click "Load Defaults" then just select the "Ok" button.

This happens to me too sometimes, re-starting the heightmap is an option i sometimes take if all else fails.

If FeralHeart crashes after adding a heightmap, there can be only 1 reason: you did something wrong.

Make sure that....

-It is in Greyscale mode
-513x513
-One layer only
-Saved as a .png format
-Saved in the Terrains folder possibly in the name of your map folder

Everything Ingredient said is perfect except for one thing. not "possibly" in your map folder. It is mandatory that your heightmap be placed in your map's folder.

If you are sure you did everything right and FeralHeart still crashes when you add your heightmap, either post it here or send it to me via PM and i will test them out and tell you what the problem is.
