I have level 1 and a level 2. Saving as a standalone.
When the game starts the nice island and trees and mountains are all just green hills and player drowns in none visible water.
Tried it a few times with same result.

The two snaps are from the editing mode top view and the second one is the view when game starts from "Save Standalone".

Any idea on how to fix.

I would go to the standalone game and check the correct skybank has been transferred to the skybank folder and also the terrain bank ..
If they are wrong its a simple manual fix .... just delete the wrong ones and copy the correct ones over manually ..

I know you shouldn't have to but it will sort your current problem out ..

The location for level 1 and level 2 were held in a folder in the mapbank. The folder that held the level saves was three folders deep.
Mapbank\ NewGame\TKEW\Episode One\level1 and level2.

I then saved the levels from editor into the mapbank and then ran the "save standalone".

This now works.
Must be something to do with subfolders i guess.

Thank you for the help.
WIP demo for next week now. Cool

Yeah, GameGuru has issues with multiple folder levels, it's best to limit yourself to for example mapbank/your title/your.fpe, the same with audiobank, scriptbank, and so on.

Also, when saving standalone, make sure you load each map into the editor and save it again one by one in reverse order, before hitting the save as standalone button, that helps to make sure all your levels are transferred.
