Donnie Help Terrain
Hey guys need some help. My UnrealEd is fucked up. I need to make my layer but the Layers tab is missing the New, Duplicate and Delete options. What do?

Open user.ini file in the System folder, and delete the [WindowPositions] block. Close the Unreal Editor before doing this and back up your user.ini file beforehand, just in case things go tits up.
I believe this will fix the issue.

Re: Donnie Help Terrain
yo everytime i click OK on the New Terrain properties window the editor crashes. my map is a 50048 unit cube, so i set XSize and YSize at 782. Does it have something to do with it? i mean it's not that big.

Re: Donnie Help Terrain
An easy way to find out would be to make a smaller one around 400 and see if that works when you click okay, if it doesnt crash, its something to do with the size. (have you also set the Zoneinfo to Terrain Zone?) If it does still crash, try making a terrain on a new blank map, if that works, its something to do with your map, if not then it may be a PC Issue.

Re: Donnie Help Terrain
The XSize and the YSize must be powers of 2, otherwise the editor will crash. So 256x256 or 512x512, 256x128, etc. I would keep the values at 256x256 and then you can increase the TerrainScale in the TerrainInfo if you need to increase the size of your terrain area.

Re: Donnie Help Terrain
yea i tried with a 4096 unit cube and the editor didn't crash. i thought making big maps wouldn't be an issue.coletay wrote:An easy way to find out would be to make a smaller one around 400 and see if that works when you click okay, if it doesnt crash, its something to do with the size.

i read somewhere that in order to determine the exact values of XSize and YSize, i have to divide the size of the room by 64. that's why i set them at 782. Can you confim this?Earl_Vencar.:LLS:. wrote:The XSize and the YSize must be powers of 2, otherwise the editor will crash.

Re: Donnie Help Terrain
I have no idea to be honest, but I do know that not setting the values as a power of 2 will result in the editor crashing. Keep it at 256 x 256 and then edit the TerrainScale.
