Crash in mapsplitter

when I run mapsplitter with Equalize=yes and BaseMap=yes in my .gen file it crashes on this part in the code:

MapSplatter::CalcMapSplats()

uint indx = 1;
while (height > matHeight[indx])
indx++;


If I dont use Equalize I get blank files for some reason, but it doesnt crash. Is this just a stupid mistake on my part?

for the record, I tried both CVS and normal distribution. Here is the gen file I used:



GroupName=PLSM2

LandScapeFileName=isles
LandScapeExtension=png

TextureStretchFactor=1.0f

OutDirectory=media/plsm2/terrain/LandScapeFileName

Paged=yes
PageSize=513
TileSize=513
HeightMap=yes
Equalize=yes

BaseMap=yes


The main programmer on PLM is on vacation for a couple weeks so you may have to wait until he gets back.

Ohwell, a good time to learn about patience then.

Something weird I noticed is that it DOES work with another heigthmap I just tried, they're the same size, same colour depth same type (jpg). But one couses the splitter to crash with the same gen file.

If anyone has thoughts on that one...

BaseMap, CoverageMap or AlphaMaps needs some a list of heights defining the color, alpha texture generation.
Look in default map about that.
I'll fix code to raise an exception in that case.

The above also occures when when the heights are defined. I found it works if I dont have to heigh a heightmap and the image is 65*65, if different, it crashes again. Besides that the heightmap thats copied to the destination dir is completely black.

Hope this made sense, and thanks for the quick reply.

The above also occures when when the heights are defined.
same exact bug ?
is matHeight vector array non empty, filled with the value you specified ?

Heh, its just stupid me.... kinda


uint indx = 1;
while (height > matHeight[indx])
indx++;


Should have seen this at once, there is no splat defined for the higher parts of the terrain in the .gen file. Now I used higher values and it works perfectly. well, nearly so, it still cashes when I use equalize and it wont output the heightmap except a black file.

please have a try with the latest version, which I updated today on some mapsplitter bugs.
If it doesn't work let me know here.
