Browedit Map Expansion

[Azura Skyy]

So- I checked through my files last night and found that I have a save of the map I've been working on for ages (its my third iteration at my first map and I'm a perfectionist; I realize these two things go together like oil and water).

Now, I may have screwed myself when I set my borders. I have terrain cutting off most of the maps edges, but the East side, possibly the most important for this map, only leaves about 4 walk-able cells past a fence cutoff.

Because of building and terrain placements, it would be impossible to shift everything West slightly.

Is there anyway to expand my map?

Thank,
~Azy

Have you only done the texturing and modeling? Or lights, gats and whatsoever as well? If yes, this would be a little trickier.

 

However, you could try doing the following:

 

Open your map > Edit Mode > Global Height Edit > Click ctrl + C > Check everything > Press "Ok"

Now open a new map > Pick your desired size > Click to paste your copied map into the new map.

 

If you crash, try to remove your lightmaps, that usually does the trick.

Yes; only textures and models. I did a global height edit as well... Not sure if that affects it.

I was able to do everything except paste. You said 'Click to paste your copied map.'

 

Based on that I assume you mean left click, and nothing happened. I'm positive the new map is bigger and I copied properly (90% sure).

 

Thanks in advance,

EDIT: Also, your map, Crystilia, is beautiful. The download link does not work, but I would love a copy of it if you still have the file. I think it would make a lovely GM HQ.

Because you didn't name the song, except that it was in the ending, I spent three hours on Monday trying to find it.

Did the copied map at least follow your cursor when you opened a new map, or did nothing happen at all?

I repeated those steps just to double check if I haven't made any mistakes and it still worked for me.

 

If you really can't figure it out and feel comfortable with it, I wouldn't mind doing it for you. Just send me a private message with the files.

As for Crystilia; the DL is in the attachment. Sorry for not stating the song!

It did not follow the cursor. Do you have a potential solution to that?
If not, I will send you the files, as it would be greatly appreciated. ^^;

 

EDIT: The search for the song has peaked my interest in the series. Besides that, the song was worth the time. 

Thanks again,

To be honest, I don't know what the cause can be. Perhaps you're working with a revision were copy/paste wasn't implented yet.
