Map problem|:|
« on: June 18, 2017, 03:22:02 pm »
Greeting fellow FH player.
My name's Annoyance and I've been experiencing some issues with Feral Heart map making.
I've seen a lot of thread talking about the same things and tried what they did but it seems to not work no matter what.
My Mask work perfectly, the problem is the height.
My height is
- Grayscale
-No alpha
- 513 x513
- .png file

Yet, once I try to load it, FH crash. Any help would be wonderful as I wanted to give it a try into making map since it look great.
Thanks for taking the time to help, and have a wonderful day

-Annoyance-

You also need to make sure there is only one layer. If there are multiple you will have to flatten them.

Additionally, there can be no spaces in your terrain name. If there are, you must replace the space with an _ (underscore).


You are amazing <3

There is only one layer and no space in the name.

Try right clicking on your single layer and selecting the option "Flatten Image". Most drawing software allows you to do so, though if it is not one of the right click options you may have to search the menus at the top for it.
On a temporary leave. Please contact other members of staff if you need assistance.

Found the Flatten image but it's still not working.
Sorry for the bother, I just have no idea of what to do to make it right.

Hmmm...make sure to double check everything right before exporting.

-513x513
-Grayscale
-No alpha channel
-One, flattened layer
-.png
-No spaces
-mapnameTerrain.png is the name

I know it seems repetitive but those are the only things that could be causing your terrain to crash.

Have you tried a different heightmap?

My presets.

Good things take time, so I'll take an eternity and create something so good that the human brain can't handle the sheer goodness of it.

I don't know how, but it finaly worked. I will take a close look of what I do, as I may have forgotten to something in the list you made.
This thread can now be locked.

I did tried 3 different heightmap. 2 created by me and one free on the forum. Anyway, it is solved and I shall try to keep it like this.
Thanks everyone for those advice, you shall see W.I.P map soon. Maybe a home for Annoyance?~
