I am currently downloading map editor and I was wondering if there is a place with good instructions and steps on how to make your maps.

And whenever you have a question that isn't answered in the help file, just do a search on this Board. The search box at the bottom of the  post list is an invaluable tool when starting a map.

Ok everytime I minimize map editor then come back to it my whole map turns black and I can only see the fields.  I have to restart it again in order to see my map.

This also happens when I create a map.  My whole map turns black and when I check on the bmp file it just shows water.

How do I fix this?

No fix. Its a 'bug/feature'.

Never resize/minimize or move the editor while a map is open.

And save your work often.

Dont get frustrated with the editor, youll get used to the rather capricious handling .


Edit: name your terrain with maximum of 8 letters.


The make map feature on Editor2 doesnt work, you have to download editor1 to make maps. the how youll find in a recent thread i started: clipboard maps.

You'll need to create a folder called texsrc and place them there.

Your mail from yahoo is to small to accept the file for editor. Visit AH Terrains you can get it from there or give me your IP mail address.

All of the original terrain tiles are all available from AH-Terrains and they are 512 x 512.
