map error help

This is beyond infuriating. Hours sunk into this map and no progress, beyond narrowing it down to the continent outline of the heights file or the regions file. The second I change these to match what I want, it gives me the "could not create settlement at script line 59" error.

Remember, I'm working off of a set of files that work perfectly, the only things I'm changing are the land's outline, region borders and settlement locations.

I've scoured all the other files clean of anything that could possibly give any errors, heights and region are all that's left. It's not port locations, it's not settlement locations on invalid terrain, it's not settlement locations bordering other provinces, it's not wrong image sizes, it's not coordinates in descr_stat.txt

...WTF!?!?!?

Our problems are identical Curious. This error must be based on the same thing.

Beautiful map by the way!

Thanks, though the credit goes to George R.R. Martin, author of the novels

So I've played around a little more, and (from the original working files) changed only a little bit of the landform, in heights, ground types, and regions. Doing only this causes the line 59 error.

I'm thinking there's a possibility that I'm not resizing the files correctly. My current process is, when going from small to large, I resize x2 (nearest neighbor of course), then add 1 pixel to the top and right side of the canvas. when going from large to small, I do the same in reverse, I take a pixel off the top and right of the canvas, then resize to 1/2 with nearest neighbor. Any of that sound wrong to any of you?

That's the way I do it, though I understand map_roughness has to be exactly twice the size of regions.

An example of what I've got, just to clarify: my small maps (regions etc) are 271 x 176 pixels, my large maps (heights, ground_types) are 543 x 343 and roughness is 542 x 342.

Problem solved! For anyone interested, someone on TWCenter informed me that an RBG value of 0,0,0 in the heights file produces an error, and that got rid of the line 59 error

Post some shots of the map curious! It looks so awesome. Unfortunately that didn't help me, but I'm glad you've got yours going! It gives every frustrated mapper hope :D . The error was made worse by the RGB change for me, it stopped generating the .rwm :p
