 Is there a map making tutorial for current build(s) ? Is there a mapping tutorial for builds 20/21/22? I really would like to make my own contours, but I seem to not to find a good general tutorial

Re: Is there a map making tutorial for current build(s) ? Most of the tutorials are still relevant. Look to lord tim's old ones. They still work I think.
Also, just looking through some of the custom maps should help you figure things out.

I really would like to make my own contours, but I seem to not to find a good general tutorial You don't use "contours" like you did in the old builds. It's just a regular .bmp file now. With the colors set to correspond to the material indexes in the material palette and materials.ini files.

Two things: 1. You should probably look at Lord Tim's tutorials or use azukki's templates. 2. You should take a look at other contours and try to put that underground part in that slightly darker shade of purple. It will make it look like a cave. That is all.

Re: Is there a map making tutorial for current build(s) ? If you just want to get it in game, then copy the grasslands.ini file in base.ini and replace all the grasslands stuff with hugeland. Make sure whenever it calls for a file you have the correct path. Then go into scenes.ini and scroll to the very bottom. There is a list of stuff that is to be added, copy one and change it to hugelands.

X = 0
Y = 0
// Terrain SceneLayer
Terrain = SLTerrain
InstanceName = Hugeland Terrain
BitmapFile = ContentFile
Path = Base.rte/Scenes/Hugeland.bmp
WrapX = 1
WrapY = 0
ScrollRatio = Vector
X = 1.0
Y = -1.0
