I have decided to make this topic becuse I have some questions and problems..
I was told by good mapmakers to be free PM them any time i need help and I want to thank them all for that.
But I think maybe by posting this topic I will help at the sime time all other mapmakers solve their problems and answer their questions.
I also fell bad PMing people with a lot of question taking their precious time.. so here I will get I hope posts of people who have time and are willing to answer.
And maybe other people will post their questions and problems here too.
Of course if somone do not want to share their secrets of making maps on forum, please really please just type PM to meas an answer to a problem.
I am using flaMEv1-02 and I am very satisfied, of course I know many use other programs and other versions and are happy too.
During my map making I have encounter many problems and questions.
I want to add that my qestions are about flaMEv1-02 editor.
I am sorry if i ask silly things, or strange ones, i am just learning and I am curious.
Here are some of my questions.
1 What is the maximum number of features you can put on a map ?? and does it depends on the map size ??
2 What is the specific number of Scavengers structures I can put on the map ?? can I use for example 16 Scavenger Factories ?? but then only first 8 will work I mean produce units and the rest just stand ?? what is the maximum number of Scavenger structures ??
3 Can I put water at a different height without making game slowing down very much, I mean I have made map where at the height of 0 was water and at the height of 255 as a lake in elevated island terrarian, and whenever pople nered the lake the game sloved down almost crahing and even crashing..
4 I have also strange problem sometimes, people entering my room, i think then it happens, erase my base numbers on the map, I dont know maybe it happens during a game and next time we play it is already erased, I mean here I see the numbers but players dont.. It happened to me today, i was told "put numbers of bases on map" I thought what the hell, and it hapened to me 3 times already on different maps, I had to erease the map from Warzone file and download my own map.. to replace it.
5 I would also like to know how to make and how to use smooth setting in flaMe, becuse as those who know my maps probably have noticed that my big hills are like steps..
6 I have also problem, an error, that after compilation some objects are missing, for example i have put 6 feature factories next to each other, but after compilation i have 4 not often but on some maps it happens..
I would be very happy if someone could answer my questions, not necesarily all at one time.
If any question needs more details from me, or exact description of the situation I am redy to answer.
I have much more questions, but those are the most important to me.
Gentlemen have fun making maps
Bye
