Trouble Loading Maps?

[Emberflame]

Hello, I'm working on a requested map but I'm having trouble loading the terrain in game. My dad recently wiped his drive, so I re-downloaded FeralHeart and my meshes, everything seems to be in working order, but whenever I load the map terrain, the game crashes. I've never had this problem before, and I've made tons of maps, I don't have Gimp on this computer, so I made the terrain and mask on my moms laptop, then attached it to my email and put it in the proper place in the game files. I've tried moving files, renaming, different ways of typing it in in-game, but nothing seems to work! Help?

This happens to me a lot, make 11 maps fine, then make another and the terrain just goes splat.
I can never remember what I did to fix them for some reason, but here is everything I try:

All on one layer,
Unclocked background layer,
All on background,
Merge and flatten,
Only letters in name,
No spaces in name,
No capitals in name,
Use an uncommon name,
513 by 513
512 by 512
Terrain grayscale,
Mask RGB,
.png file.

I'm afraid that's all I have, hope you manage to fix it.

I've tried the 513X513 and 512X512 thing, I don't have any layers to merge, so everything is on one layer, I don't have any spaces or capitals, and it still crashes. I'd like to try the other options, but I don't have any idea how, I can be pretty klutzy when it comes to image programs :/ some more help if you don't mind? XP

Ugh, I don't have a lot else... Perhaps try looking at a tutorial again.
Also maybe try re-making the terrain? I know this is a pain but even if you just make a plain one to see if it works...?
If it does great, that means it's to do with the terrain. If not then something is messing up at some point between the file being made and inserted to map maker.
How big is it? Sometimes diverse height maps that are larger (60,000+) can crash for no apparent reason. Also I have found that maps set to 50,000 tend to crash. Just that number I think.

Hope this helped.

The map is 10,000 I'm pretty sure. I'll try soon, thanks
