Hey, how can i create a map in torque3d editor without being deleted by updates, so making it a standalone mod?
Updates do not delete maps. If it happened to you, then you probably put your map in the wrong place.
Copy your map from the "levels" folder (if it's there) located in C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\BeamNG.drive\, and also the levels folder located in C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\BeamNG.drive\cache.X.X.X.X\ to your mods folder.
Hm, because i had a map who survived 3 updates or so, and then at one update the map was like set back, there was only a road from the beginning i placed. The map was in my documents (beamng folder) and I didn't changed the folder place, I also made a backup, but not even this works, don't know what i did there :I
So I can give you a tutorial I made on you Tube , its the way I am using Since 1 year and this map still works fine , So if you are a beginner of map creation this is a pretty good Video I made I think :
