Post subject:  Underground map problems
Well I decided to make a map with most of it underground. Why? No idea. I was bored. So i chose the Floating Islands map as a template as it is very tall. (I can't remember who made it, but i think its an awesome map) I simply changed the bmps a bit, and edited some offsets. However it doesn't work. It keeps asking for unspecified materials, even though I didn't include anything like that. I have absolutely no idea why this keeps messing up. I've checked all the files, but nothing seems wrong/out of place. Any ideas?

Did you make sure to use the right palette in the MAT file? Did you use the right colors in the MAT file?

Usually when it asks about materials and ♥♥♥♥ is because the MAT file

I think i did. But i just used the stuff that came with the other map. i have absolutely no knowledge of map making. It probably is, but to be honest i have no idea.

I think you should have used the map template instead of an existing map. Here's the link: http://datarealms.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=1210 Scroll down to the downloads until you see "Scene Template" and use that.

Ok, first, I downloaded the underground map in the first post, and one of the Grasslands images was classified as RGB. Make sure all images are indexed into the CC palette. I then tested the map, and it works fine. But, strangely the underground grasslands doesn't appear, and at the very bottom of the map is a layer of white rock, and the bg of that rock is regular dirt fg. wtf?

I KNOW???!???!? I have sorted it out some more and made it RLE compression, and i think i did that with 256 colour saving, in paint, but its still verrrryy mucked up. Ahh well, i guess I'll never be a map maker. :???:
