So now that I've learned about maps, I'm trying to make one for me and my pals.
However I'm stuck on the first step: Making the Height Map.
Not the real grayscale drawing stuff, but finding the image to do it with.
I'm stuck here on Step 4:
4.
What I do is go into the Watermill map folder and 'copy' the heightmap (The grey picture) and rename it. Be sure to name it 'MapnameTerrain' (Ex: SuferiaTerrain) This way you have it already preset to the correct size and format without having to make a new file. (DON'T steal anybody else's height-maps!)
Where is the 'Watermill map folder'? On my FH folder I went into media > terrains as it said, but the file is called 'WaterMill.map'. The icon next to it is the ion for a document I would presume, not an image. (The icon looks like a white piece of paper with a folder in the corner.) So how can I do this? I opened it up in Notepad and it just has coding.
Also, when I solve the above issue, do I copy over the current title or make a new file completely?
Thank you. I really want to get this done before tomorrow morning. c:
