Press F5 to call up the Run Map dialog. This is what I have entered:
Export File
(input the path and name of the MAP file you want to export)
Executable 1
C:\Program Files\3D World Studio\map2dif.exe
Parameters
-o mappath$ -t mappath$ mapfile$
FYI, I've written an extremely basic tool to add any entities you like into your .MAP; this can be used to set your lightmap scale and geometry scale, among other things. I've found it to be quite useful with 3DWS.
If you use it, you can run it as Executable 1 (and move Map2Dif down to Executable 2).
Good luck!

The "Run Map" option in 3DWS can be configured to automatically run Map2Dif or Map2Dif_plus without dragging and dropping.Press F5 to call up the Run Map dialog. This is what I have entered:
Export File
(input the path and name of the MAP file you want to export)
Executable 1
C:\Program Files\3D World Studio\map2dif.exe
Parameters
-o mappath$ -t mappath$ mapfile$
