how to transfer a map from a project to another ?

Hello,

Currently I am using Beta 4 T3d. here is my problem, i tried to copy the level files in another project folder but obviously, that's not the way to do it (i created the map from a heightmap). I saw there was a terrain heightmap exporter, and it seems to don't work much.

So very simply, how to transfer the map i created in one project to another project ? I'm almost sure there is a simple way to do it but that's not obvious to me. Or is there something wrong with Beta4?

thank you.

You need the .mis and the .ter files. The .mis is just a simple text file that contains the data information of everything in your level. The .ter file is the terrain file that is generated by Torque.

Both files should be found in the levels directory, but the terrain file may be found in "art/terrains" if it isn't there.
