No Mask. Help Me. XD
« on: July 17, 2017, 10:09:40 pm »
I solved the crashing height map problem, goodness. I made it all fancy 'n stuff, and went to test it. It worked great! Then I made a mask for it, and...

KA-BOOM!

The whole map is <4KIDZ> black. ;u; I placed the mask file into the same folder as the height map, it's a 513x513 PX canvas, one layer, RGB mode (Red, green, and blue colours), and it's a .PNG. I'm not sure why it's black I need help making it colourful, anyone have any ideas? .o.

You used Red, Green and Blue for your mask right, coloring the parts of your heightmap?
That's just telling the game where to put the textures, if you choose any in game in the map maker.
Edit: You must choose the textures that game game will display while in the map maker.
For the sake of my own health and interests, I've left FH and I won't be looking back.

I did, but all of the textures are pitch black. ;;

Only thing the mask should have:


Where you set the textures ingame:

Notice that "Alpha Map" is actually the Mask, you need to set this!
"Terrain Texture": 1 is Red, 2 is Green and 3 is Blue.

I have seemed to do everything right... Question, does the mask name have to be somewhat familiar with the terrain?

No it can be named anything as long as it is typed correctly.
Edit: is your Mask also in the terrain folder?
Edit2: Did you close the game? You would need to if it was left opened.

Yep, my mask is in my terrain folder. I'll check further tomorrow, maybe I was too tired. xP

Here's my picture of the mask, and the terrain. Another questions, should the colours be a perfect hex code or not really?

Did you use a 255 Red, 255 Blue and 255 Green?
Mixing colors works but I have only tried color combinations that add up to 255.

Also, did you set regions 2 and 3(With the arrow(s) on the page)? I was confused when I first made a Terrain Mask, before I found out how to set the regions to something.

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.

Ooooh, I think that's what might be the problem! I don't think my hex codes for colours are correct, I'll go try and fix that, see if it works.
