"FeralHeart.exe has stopped working," on HeightMaps

[Frightful]

Whenever I try to put a height map in a map that I am working on, it freezes and makes me close FH and restart it.  Terrain maps work fine, but height maps have never worked.   Yes, I did follow the official manual and I saved it as a png.  I worked on it with my friend over the phone, and hers worked but mine did not.  I've also tried making a new Heightmap, but it still won't work.  Any help would be appreciated. 

Please no stupid comments like, "Have you restarted your computer?" or "Have you looked over the Manual again?"  I wouldn't be posting this if I hadn't.
Thanks in advance!

Make sure it's in greyscale, this is a common mistake and it has to be 513x513
Also, I would count ''have you looked over the manual'' as a stupid comment, the manual was recently updated and the info is more helpful.

It is greyscale and 513 x 513.  What I meant about that is like, "Did you use GIMP or PS?" kind of thing.

Odd, it should work just fine.. Well then I do recommend you look over the manual, lol. Or some member made tutorials. xD

Hmm...read over it, but nothing ):  Anybody else?

Make the hieghtmap in GIMP or Photoshop, Make sure it is GREYSCALE. For GIMP, go to Image, Then mode, And hit Greyscale, then save it. The size must be 513x523.
For Photoshiop im not sure how to do this.
Also, Heres a mistake i made for my first map. The Hieghtmap must go into C:/FeralHeart/Media/Terrains NOT your maps folder inside terrains. NOT in pictures. also, it MUST be PNG.

It is greyscale and the right size.  I did put it in Terrains and it is a PNG.

I've had this problem before, and when I asked for help on it, here's what I was told to do:

Open up the heightmap
click Save As, s ave it as a .jpeg image
Click save as, save it as a .png again
Say yes to write it over if it asks if you want to replace it if there's already a .png of that image in your folder
Go in game, type in your heightmap, make sure that it ends in .png
It should work if you do that. If not, I dunno what to tell you; It worked for me.
Hope this helped!

Thanks so much, but it didn't work, even when I tried it again.  Do you think you or anyone else can get on join.me to walk me through it again just in case if I missed something?
