First you'll need some sort of art program to work with. I suggest either GIMP or Photoshop. If you don't have either of those you can download them here:

GIMP- http://www.gimp.org/

PhotoShop- http://www.photoshop.com/


There are quite a few tutorials in the Member Made Tutorial section of this forum that you can refer to to learn how to make a map. Try looking here under the bold red section titled Map Tutorials:
http://www.feral-heart.com/index.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=2&jfile=index.php&topic=18898.0

Here is a really great tutorial that Crin made that I have used myself:
How to Make your First FH Map!-
http://www.feral-heart.com/index.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=2&jfile=index.php&topic=17452.0


You can also refer to these two YouTube tutorials that Redlinelies made:

Also in the future posts like this go in the Game Help section so I've move it for you now.

Try http://www.feral-heart.com/index.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=2&jfile=index.php&topic=34893.0]This.[/url]

Or go to Manual (under the large changing picture) and scroll down to the section on map making. Everything you should need should be covered.

Hi I was hoping someone here could help me with the actual up loading of the map so I can rp with my friends? See, my friend made one and its not working at all when i try to download it. It doesn't show the portal in the Cape. Could someone give me another tutorial of putting the files in a zip please?

Please make your own thread in future, Veronica ;)

What exactly are you doing when you download it? Are you sure you're installing it properly? Try following this video tutorial:

Make sure you restart your Feralheart game after installing a map to prevent crashes ;)
