I've recently started to use Constructor, but I haven't found out how to import interiors from Marble Blast into it, I just have all the shapes. (I have Torque Constructor 1.0.3., Mac OSX, Snow Leopard).

You forget a thousand things everyday. Make sure Marble Blast isn't one of 'em.

If you already converted your maps, import them in marble/data/interiors. On Mac, I don't know.

He's asking about importing interiors from MB to Constructor. That's not possible as .dif files (interiors) are the end product.
You can make .map files which you can convert to interiors but not vice versa.

Thanks Matan! Quick question though: what folder do I put the converted files in Constructor? Also, where can I get the Map2Dif download (Mac, but idk whether there's a difference between the PC or Mac versions, if they exist).

Go on philsempire.com and go to the downloads. It's the last link of the list.

Thanks. BTW, did you make that page about MBMap2Dif on the wiki? Is there a Mac version though? I really don't like going around with flash drives between my Mac and PC.

Thanks Jeff, I needed that too. Again though, I need a Dif2Map thing (Mac) or at least a PC link, if Dif2Map even exists.

It does not. Dif is the torque compiled version of a map.

There is no reason for such a utility anyway, as you shouldn't be modifying other people's maps without permission.

What do you mean? You can make map files for MBG or MBP just depending on textures. If you mean remaking the map files for the MBG levels themselves, that's pretty much impossible.

Yes, the textures. I have no idea how to make/work on .map files at all.

Well you said you have constructor, so use that.

Sorry, I said that wrong. What I meant was that I have no idea how to start on interiors in Constructor. Like how to make a basic cube like in Pf's post in the complete guide to creating custom levels.

Okay, thanks! To make it an interior I have to put the interior texture into the textures folder with the pink NULL file, right? Also: how to I add trim?

lol... I know that .dts shapes can't be in interior files... I've been phrasing things terribly. I'm kind of in a fret right now and I'm not putting my mind to things today.
