another map question
« on: January 16, 2013, 07:11:26 pm »
ok, I am trying t make maps for my RP but i can only use the Water Mill basic that came with FH and then change it to something else b/c when i try to add water all it is, is a white square >.<
How do i change it to look like water? How do i make hills V.V i have so little knowlegde on this.
Is there a site or a vid that will tell me or can one of you try to?

You need to type in the name of the material for water, even though it's much easier to use the ocean button. I don't remember the exact names but try typing in Watermat or something.

The white square issue sounds like you are missing the water texture. For that, I suggest a re installation of the game. Hills are made with heightmaps. You can find out mroe about heightmaps and other map-making necessities here.
