How to save textures to level directly..

Post by Yautja (Predator) »

How can I save Texture files to the map directly without having an external .utx file? I though it was Package: MyLevel, but when I did this, my level didn't save, even when forcing to save as save as. It was really strange, then when I ran the level it put me in a previous iterations of my saves and not the level with the new textures in it... Any help would be great!

Hi :)

When you import a texture to MyLevel you don't need to save the MyLevel Package. The imported texture/s will automatically be saved with the map.
Of course only the textures which are used somewhere in the map. Imported textures which are not used will not be saved with the map.

Do not save mylevel! By creating an actual mylevel package, you break all the maps which actually rely on it!
As Leela pointed out, Mylevel will automatically delete unused resources when closing the editor. Otherwise, it works as intended.
You must construct additional pylons.
