Need mayjor help with this map.

The problem: "DEFAULT" texure everywhere.

Scripts: Terrians.ini

Code:

Index.ini

Code:

GrassyGap.ini

Code:

NOTE: I use other maps as base since I'm new to this.

If you get weird 'default' textures then your map image isn't in the right palette. Your map needs to be an 8-bit, 256 'indexed' colours, .bmp file and the colour table should look something like this: Mspaint can't display the used colour table. I suck at explaining stuff, but I hope this helps a bit. If it doesn't, please tell what kind of paint program you're using.

No need to quote me. Anyway, I dunno that particular program. Is it possible to load a different colour table into your picture? You can also post your .bmp file so that I can change it for you.

Um, are you asking for the map or the colour chart? Because if you want the map, just save it from the post.

I'll be needing the full size .bmp, not a .png.

You converted that png to bmp. -_- I could have done that. There's 'anti-aliasing' in that picture, like Lizard stated. Also, this map is very, very tiny. You need to start with a new .bmp and save it as such at all times. Don't save it as anything else (.png, .jpg etc), because your picture will get mucked up. I dunno how I can explain this any better.

I dunno how I can explain this any better. That makes no sense, I made this made from another map. And I saved it as a .bmp What teh fudge.

Paint.net, from my experience, does not work for CC sprites. Also, it is extremely tiny. I would use graphics gale. It works better and if you copy-paste the map file from a default map, you'll get the colors automatically indexed for you. Also, don't make grass that thick... It would look really ugly.

Use graphics gale. It has a pallete with all the colors you can use. Very helpful. And there's a free version.
