Problem making a map

[Dafniforfree]

Well I know how to make maps and I have fantastic ideas but when I try to make one it stucks and I can't move or click sth... so unfair why?

[Siskin]

we can't help you without more details...

what do you mean it's stuck and you can't click anything ? did you successfully load the heightmap ?

[Dafniforfree]

I can load the height and mask and when I want to put a mesh or anything it don't move easily and I cannot make the map!That happens when I get in a made map that others have done and still do the same don't move easily...Any ideas?

Open the map in the map maker. go to World and check the value of Width. the largest map i heard of has 30.000 

The bigger your map, the bigger the features (like hills and such) that might trick the eye and look like you were moving more slowly.

Other than that, i'm pretty sure you are moving at normal speed. Perhaps make a video and show us ?

[Dafniforfree]

How can I made a video??? O.o

[Dafniforfree]

here I make a video(my first ever!)and maybe you cannot see clearly at first but then it is ok here ?? ??_0001

I'm still not sure what your problem is...

You can move the camera faster by pressing =

Ohoo.... the problem is a horrible frame rate.

Sameth, look at his mouse at 00:40 to 00:50

It was fine untill he loaded the map. Dafniforfree, that means you added some very CPU heavy resources. either extremly high resolution textures, very high polygon count objects or very many objects clutered together and your pc simply cannot handle it.

I have putted in this map 5-6 meshes last day I was deleting some meshes I did not wanted and still do the swame what have I got to delete more?

[Siskin]

1) Copy your heightmap and texturemap somewhere else.

2) delete the folder of that map (media\terrains\mymap\) as well as the .map file C:\Program Files (x86)\FeralHeart+\media\terrains\mymap.map)

3) go to the map maker, create the map again.

4) exit the game again

5) copy the heightmap and texturemap back.

6) go to the map maker and apply your heightmap and texture map

7) start adding objects.


Follow those steps please, and tell us at which step it starts to be slow like this.
