Zath of the Sword Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 I am trying to create a map with the Town tileset, in Nightmare I changed the Chapter tileset and objects to Town and Docks. But when I load the map I mad in Mappy it looks all weird and the tiles are not in the right places. The other map I made with a different set worked fine. Any ideas whats wrong?

Lord Glenn Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 I think you might need to be a bit more specific in describing the elements of this. You know, items such as the offset where you inserted the map array, the map's size, the exact tileset string (10 00 11 12, for instance), etc. As it stands, I think the only possible advice anyone could suggest would be to re-export the map array and reinsert the map again (which, oddly enough *can* fix stuff - I don't try to understand it, but I've inserted a map once and had issues, but then starting clean and inserting it again, it worked) or check to make sure that you have don't have a corrupted tileset.

Zath of the Sword Posted May 3, 2011 Author Share Posted May 3, 2011 I think I might just have the wrong tileset, I used Set10005612, I tried redoing it but it did not work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowofchaos Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 Also, make SURE that when you make a map and import the tileset, that you DO NOT press CTRL + X or press "Cut". It will shift all your tiles one, and it will screw up your map. And when you have made another map, DO NOT change the tileset. That has also been known to screw up stuff.

Crimson Red Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 If you did screw up your map in Mappy, I suggest exporting a .bmp and using BwdYeti's converter to get a working .FMP and .MAR file, and then re-inserting the .MAR. It beats remaking the map from scratch. >_> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zath of the Sword Posted May 4, 2011 Author Share Posted May 4, 2011 its the tileset in general no matter what town/docks map I make it does not work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Red Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Well, we don't know enough information to point out where you're going in the insertion process... try another tutorial? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT075 Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Here's what you did wrong. "You screwed something up" There. Are you satisfied? No? Well, that's all we can tell you, since the info you gave us makse no sense and is not very coherent regardless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nintenlord Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 Like this: -What the map is like (post FMP file if possible)? -Where in ROM did you insert it to? -What version of MAR array inserter did you use and what options did you choose when inserting? Also, make SURE that when you make a map and import the tileset, that you DO NOT press CTRL + X or press "Cut". It will shift all your tiles one, and it will screw up your map. And when you have made another map, DO NOT change the tileset. That has also been known to screw up stuff. Same thing applies to Ctrl+C or "Copy". Mappy really isn't designed to handle fixed tilesets very well. It'll get the job done if you use it properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Red Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 What do you want to know? Everything relevant. We should make a tutorial on how to ask questions Aside from what NL mentioned, we could also use - screenshot of Nightmare input - screenshot of MAR Array Inserter input - a summary of not only what you did but how you get there, if that makes sense... in other words, a little more detail, but not to the point that you're writing an essay or book - patch with savestate (as a last resort) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
