Noob map question
« on: September 13, 2012, 04:33:44 pm »
I made a map before and I had no problem with it, I'm trying to make a new one and whenever I save it and try to open it up in feral heart it says that it doesn't exist.  I've renamed it, and remade it, and saved as a png format with Terrain at the end of the name..  What am I doing wrong?  Any help appreciated ^^;

Have you placed it in the correct area?

FeralHeart >> Media >> Terrains.

Also, if you've done two and named them both Terrain at the end of the name, that could be your problem.

You need to make a Terrain, and a mask.
The mask is the coloured one for what kind of ground you want (Grass, stone, whatever), and the other is for the hills, rivers'n'stoof.

I made a mask too, and it still says that my map doesn't exist.

Is the file that you made greyscale? And is it 513 by 513 pixels :)? I know those are both important aspects to make sure the file works.
