tileMap images are like any other in T2D... you have to load an imageMap for them first specifying if its a single frame, multi frames, etc etc... single frames are quite simple (as you can see in the tutorial)... so it knows how to reference that logical image to the actual image

It begins with this... though I strongly recommend doing the tutorial first... the documents still have some work to go... but thats part of the price of getting your hands on it early in the EA... and getting to influence where it goes !
if you need any help just post a question on the boards :) I am also compiling a FAQ here
