Problems? Suggestions? Post them here!
User feedback is critical to making enjoyable content and ensuring it runs correctly on everyone's hardware/software configuration. Though flatforest has graduated from the testing server, it continues to develop based on broader input from players.

Some maps aren't going to run well for everyone, but resolving individual issues experienced by players is especially relevant to flatforest which was made with performance-friendliness and stability in mind.

Please post any problems you discover or have with the map here. Any screenshots or video you can provide to help illustrate problems you find would be greatly appreciated and will speed up efforts to remedy the issue.

If you have a suggestion that you think would fit into the map, improve performance, or enhance user experience, feel free to post that as well.

Have noticed some strange missing textures on some structures on the map hopefully it could be fixed. Forgot to mention it affects both day and night maps. https://www.linkpicture.com/q/AF94C692-76A8-4793-AA84-559404BA2CF9.jpeg

Could there be a addon messing with textures?

It looks like a problem with the cubemaps, I'll try rebuilding them and updating today.

Are you running the map with HDR turned on?

HDR is turned off on my game to help improve my FPS.

whenever I kill NPCs in this map my game seems to crash
Ver  [developer] 7 Mar, 2023 @ 4:29pm 
Does that persist with your other addons disabled?

my only suggestion would be to make yet another variant of this map but this time snowy, idk it would look cool imo

I'd have liked to. Someone else requested it once, and I'll give you the same answer I gave them;

When I originally made this map I didn't make the assets in a way that retained enough useful information for me to be able to edit them like that. I figured if I ever made a version two of flatforest, I'd make new trees and try to build those resources over from the ground up to allow for multiple variants.

I was sort of rushing to fulfill this idea of a "hyper-performant" forest map when I originally worked on this, so it was entirely my fault for the reckless approach.

Maybe some day. I keep telling myself I'll move on from this engine and work on other things but somehow I keep ending up back here. ╮⁠(⁠.⁠ ⁠❛⁠ ⁠ᴗ⁠ ⁠❛⁠.⁠)⁠╭
