Please don't make your title in all caps, that isn't necessary in order for us to see your thread. ;)

You get people into your maps by adding a portal and exporting it, then going to your exports folder and getting the exported files. Then upload them to www.mediafire.com (or somewhere that uploads files) and have your friends download them and put them in their exports folder.

You make weather in Sky Maker, you can figure it out just by playing around with it.

For music, put a song (it must be a .mp3 or a .wav file) in your sounds folder, and type it in, in the "Music" section in map maker.

Hope that helps a bit. ;)

You do have an export folder. You /should/ be able to access it by going in through My Computer. I have Feral Heart saved under Local Disk (C:). It should be the same for you, unless you chose the save it elsewhere, since I'm pretty sure it's the default. From there, you go into the FeralHeart folder and your exports should be the first file in that list.

I'm not sure if this is what you were talking about, though, since I've never tried to make a map. It's just my guess that this is what you'd want. :]

Are you referring to the Terrain Mask? If so make sure the file is a .png file, made with Gimp or Photoshop, 513x513 pixels, one layer, and in RGB Color. Save it into C: >> FeralHeart >> Media >> Terrains. Then it should be named like this: something_mask.png.  Go into FH and in the tab where you entered your map layout name there should be a tab below, put in something_mask or whatever the mask is called and the .png is already there. Choose your three terrain colors with the boxes. Here is a tutorial, one for Gimp Masking and one for Photoshop Masking:

Photoshop Part 1:

These helped me a ton. I wouldn't have learned any other way.

It's a little complex, but it's way easier than other games. When you get the hang of it, it's really quite easy actually.

If you don't have an exports folder in the location:

C:\FeralHeart\exports
Then try making one, if that doesn't work, you may need to install again.
