Map Helps
« on: September 06, 2013, 11:41:50 pm »
I want my friend to download my new map but I have no idea how to help him download this type of map.. All the others were simple to download, but this one is a bit complex (for me huehue)

If anyone could give step-by-step instructions on how to install it so I can help my friend, I would highly appreciate it c:

With installing the map into his game, I guess. I just "saved" my map after finishing it so I don't see if I did anything wrong.

Load your map in Map Maker and press Export.

After exporting all exported files will appear in your Exports folder, Feralheart>> Exports. Files include:

- .fhm, the map.
- .fho, object groups.
- .fhs and .fhw, custom sky and weather cycles (if used)

Find the ones that match the ones from your exported map and drag them all into a new folder on your desktop.

Once done that, you need to compress it, with some Windows you can Right-click>> Send to>> Compressed Zip Folder. Otherwise you can use a program like WinRar or 7-Zip to compress it.

Go to a file sharing site such as www.mediafire.com or www.zippyshare.com and upload your compressed folder. Then you just need to give the download link to your friends. All they need to do is un-pack the compressed folder and drag all the exported files to their Exports folder.

A new map portal will appear at Cape of Distant Worlds :)

Alright, I exported it but it still looks like this.

Am I doing something incorrectly?

Go to your Exports folder and the files should be there :)
