I Got Problems With Data Files

Okay Folks, I got a big important question.

So, I've got these free floating Map Data files, a bunch of them, and I need to re-associate them with a project file, but I'm not sure how I do that. I spent an immense amount of time on them and I'd really hate to lose all of that work when I still have the files still on my computer. SO question is, does anyone know how to do this? Or am I fated to never see those maps again...
 
Press F10 for database.
Go to 'tilesets' section.
Press import and find your files.
*IMPORTANT! when file is imported, left click for transparant color and right click for semi transparant (shadows and such)*
Remmember to make you background in a colour that doesn't exists in your tileset, so part of it won't be transparented aswell.
If you're using RMVX you should either rename it TileE and import it to the syste folder or get  a multiple tilesets script.
now's the big annoying thingy: Goto your database (F9). go to the 'Tileset' section. Change the max to 51.
Now's the annoying part: you have to select what's walkable through and what's not. click the tileset to change from X=no to O=yes.
Now on the right bottoms passage (4 dir). now you should costimize if theres places only available from one direction.
Go to prioroty. There, I forgot what each number mean you should check =S (its about height)
and... all other things I think aren't important. Good luck :thumb:
 
I believe you mean Data files? As in .rxdata? Just copy-paste them into a project's "Data" folder and it should work (it'll replace previous files in there with the same name, though, so make sure to edit the name).
