[Alpha 0.606] FA Forever Map Editor

those value labels should be:
Densiti -> Density
Color Up -> Color Zenith / Zenith Color
also clearly we should be using real english and have Color -> Colour :>

Oh, it was late and I was tired and named them just to remember what is what. It's not even final code.

Finally I will name them: Subdivisions axis and Subdivisions height, Horizon color, Zenith color. Not sure about "Colour", I'm not good in english and spelling correction always change it to "Color".

But I'm open to suggestions. If something is wrong I will just change it.

hello I cant not put an image on the presentation of the map (in the vault)
i use render..... that not fonctionel or i am a bad boy ?

You need to write the exact location of where you want to save the render into the field below. You can also just copy and paste from your explorer (might be easier).
I haven't found out how to make the render the preview image yet though.

This release fix some critical bugs, especially when you created new map fully in this editor. Maps were missing preview image and some data was not initialized and missing. Nobody before created new map only using this editor. These maps need to be updated in valut. Here is more info how to do it:

Please test this build and report eventual bugs.

I finally started working on the Wiki page. There is already info about shortcuts. If someone want to help with it then just send me PM.

Resave map with new build. Old one was not generating preview image used in the game and in the vault.

We now have the problem, that changes in the terrain are applied in an extreme manner on the other side (using XZ symmetry). It therefore breaks the whole map. This wasn't a problem before and we had the same problem on two different maps on two different PCs.

Just fixed that and uploaded hotfix. Try now. I changed texture rotation and mirror code but forgot to also test if mirror works.

Hey that is the old way of uploading maps - I believe

Here is the new one: https://wiki.faforever.com/index.php?ti ... ap_Version
IN SHORT: remove ".v000x" from folder and files (scenario.lua and script.lua) before upload! The upload will add ".v000x" for you (If you don't remove it the map won't work, because ".v000x.v000x" is writen in files). The map version will be defined by "map_version = x," in scenario.lua

[CookieNoob]

If you don't remove it the map won't work, because ".v000x.v000x" is writen in files

thats not true afaik. When you upload a map, the map folder will be automatically get a new name based on the map_version and name in the scenario file, all paths are adjusted to this rename.

So adding or removing the version ending of the folder will have actually no effect at all.

[svenni_badbwoi]

maybe it was changed, but I broke first version of my adaptive maps, when I tried to upload with ".v000x" in files. folder was not affected though.

Spoiler: show
