A colormap is the big texture of a map. It determines the colour of any terrain tile, the detail texture you can only see from up close.
To see the map ingame you need the info folder.
You need to set the picture you need as the colour map.

Map is 2048x2048,what about secondary terrain,is it better then 512x512?
What is good texture tut?


Is map cosists of:
-color(basic green,yellow,etc.)
-detail(grass,land,desert,little stones)

Read these tutorials. It should give you an understanding on how texturing works.

This broken ship,could it be made driveable?

EDIT: Ok it can.

[Ivancic1941]

When I want to create objectspawner,I cant select velichles. Everything is white in box that opens.

How does example.pacific map has velichles that you dont have in FH2?

Can map work if you only,only put flags and spawnpoints? I tryed but it crashes.What else it needs?

I cant find bridge,usual one,so that road goes on him and rail under  in editor?

[Ivancic1941]

Ok I solved that up in community.
New problem:My editor didnt make GameModes folder. And it also made GamePlayObjects.con in Editor folder. My friend told me that now ,after I make Gamemodes folder, need to copy always GamplayObjects.con from editor folder to GameModes/gpm_cq ? Why editor didnt make his job?

[Ts4EVER]

No don't do that. The editor will do that automatically once you place objects into a certain layer in the editor. Do you have layers set up?

[Ivancic1941]

No I havent. Are layers 64,32,16 so only three?

[Ts4EVER]

You can have as many layers as you like although you rarely use more than three (mostly for AI)

[Ivancic1941]

Is there way to change map name in editor(so I dont need to do manually)?
