If you just load the map and exit

#

What happens?

#

Is the terrain still there?

#

What happens if you save then instead?

heavy bough
#

The terrain erases entirely

lyric bobcat
#

If you dont save

#

Just open and exit

#

Is the terrain still just gone?

heavy bough
#

let me double check

lyric bobcat
#

Restart the game completely after loading it as well

heavy bough
#

Ok, so the terrain is still there when I don't save the map

#

and when I restart

lyric bobcat
#

Okay what happens when you save now? @heavy bough

heavy bough
#

the terrain is gone

heavy bough
#

it's only the sky

heavy bough
#

is there a fix for it?

lyric bobcat
#

Hm

#

What happens if you set up the tiles?

#

Does the ground reappear?

heavy bough
#

No it turns to water

heavy bough
#

it only happens when I save and join back. the objects are still there but it just doesn't seem to load the terrain back in

#

it deletes it entirely

#

checked online and there is nothing showing regarding this problem. i'm certain there's an easy fix for it but i'm still waiting on an answer

You followed this guide?

heavy bough
#

watched it at least 37 times

#

Yeah I have watched it but it doesn't tell me anything besides starting a new map that hasn't been opened before, and I did that.

#

Maybe because unturned creates some new files now

#

Perhaps try deleting uuh well some landscape files

heavy bough
#

I can try, but I need to find out if the files are okay to delete

#

so interestingly enough, I found a file that says this

#

with just a number one in the file

#

oh I think that's for materials

What value does it have inside it before you hit the save button?

#

If its 1

#

Change it to 0

#

Or maybe just delete the file

heavy bough
#

i deleted it

#

an interesting thing just happened

#

so I deleted the terrain files besides the heightmap and even though the ground is white and there are no materials, the terrain stays after saving

#

found a breakthrough, seems like only the stock terrain file causes the Heightmap to disappear. i'm going to copy and paste a terrain file from another map

#

My theory is that it has to do with materials

#

more specifically the Materials.dat file

#

Got it, so it has to do with the materials you're using on the map, I used California materials previously and I didn't have the Materials.dat files for it previously

#

now California isn't showing up on my maps list, let me try and start it up on singleplayer so it loads the files into my maps folder
