Preset creating/preview issue

[Vulpeli]

So coming back after a very long break from FH, I decided to make a preset as the first thing I do. Since, I have lots of fun making them... Until frustrating bugs like this happen.

As you can see from this picture, my Preset 1 and Preset 2 are missing in-game, in the preset creator tool. I can't scroll up any further, they've just disappear from the list. They only disappeared from the list once I changed or removed any of the preset images or the .material code. They don't even show up broken with a black/yellow texture, they just do not exist. You can also see that my preset_2 folder (and preset_1 folder that you can't see) does still exist, and have the files in them that I'm trying to preview.



So what do I do? I've tried closing and re-opening the game. This happened in the preset_1 folder to start and I thought it was a freak glitch so I tried in the preset_2 folder. I'm scared to attempt putting the files in and editing the .material of another preset folder for fear they'll all disappear. I've made around 20+ presets before and never had this bug happen until just now.

Hey floof, it seems you may have a coding issue within one of your .CGF files. The file this is from is called "resources" and can be found directly in your Feral Heart folder. Open this file up with wordpad or your preferred text document reader and check to see if FileSystem=my_presets/preset_1 and FileSystem=my_presets/preset_2 is found in the file. If not, just copy and paste the missing coding from this post into your file and click Save. I have went and tested this myself by removing these two bits of coding from my resources.cgf file and when I went to the Preset Maker, they were indeed gone. I hope this solves your problem.  If you cannot seem to find the resources file and need help locating it, I would be happy to provide some screenshorts. Good luck in the preset business!

How odd... If the legit option above doesn't work out, triy switching your Rendering system to DirectX/3D9.

Maybe try replacing from the default folders found here: Click me

If these don't work I'll try suggesting other things.

My resourse.cfg is completely untouched. The presets were showing up in the editor's list until I edited them in any way.



My game also already runs on DirectX 3D9 by default, though I checked OpenGLL as well and it has the same problem. Didn't think the rendering system would have anything to do with files not appearing but I'm willing to try anything.

I just downloaded the game fresh so I can't see why any of the default folders wouldn't be working properly...

It may be because of your new theme? Although highly unlikely, it may be that or something you have recently installed that could be messing with your presets. If that doesn't work, I'll keep sifting through the FH files to see if anything else could have gone wonky. (You say you just re-downloaded FH? Maybe the download went wrong and it just didn't copy over the preset files 1 and 2.)

^^' Whoops I figured out what was wrong. I'm just an idiot haha, my game didn't mess up at all. I broke the coding in the material file by accidentally pasting over a line of code. Everything is fixed now.

Thanks for all the help though!

Haha, no worries. Glad ye fixed it. It just goes to say that the small and simple things are usually what causes most of our problems in the world.
