Well, I came back to working on my map after a month or so of not working on it (It'll get done someday, I swear it....) and it seems the imaging gremlins visited me, because photoshop isn't working like it was when I last used it.

The problem is my paint bucket. Even with tolerance set to zero, and the colortable and swatchs loaded correctly, it paints over part of my mountain with forest. Here, I'll post a screenie.



I put two screenies in one to illistrate my point. So, you see what I mean?

My paint bucket settings are: Threshold, Opacity set to 100%, tolerance to zero, Contents: Foreground. The anti-aliased box is grayed out, or I'd turn it off. I seem to remember being able to turn it off before, and I think it being on is what is causing the problem. I'm in indexed color mode, too. Anyone have suggestions? I'd love to get this damn thing done so I can move on to the fun parts of making a shard.....

Well after mucking around with photoshop for a while, even going so far as to reinstall it, I havn't been able to fix this annoying problem I guess I'll just let it b0rk my mountains and go along when I'm done the forests, fixing them by hand. That's gonna suck... *sigh*

That's what I ended up doing, using the magic wand to select ALL the grass, and drawing by hand. I just like using the lasso because it's a bit quicker - Select area, paint bucket, done. But whatever, the magic wand works too. Just takes more time

indeed you might try the magnetic lasso tool that good i think it would work well in that situation

Warped_Dragon, mine did this too after not using it for a while. It sucks and certainly adds a little more work. If you figure out a fix please post it. Tolerance at 0 should mean 0 not .1%
