Hey everyone,
I was just thinking, is it possible to transfer the landscape generator from "Worms 3D" to "Worms 4: Mayhem"? By this I mean either actually finding the generator and transfering it over or by simply editing some files in "Worms 4: Mayhem".
Of course this would all be for OFFline purposes (I'm just curious since I prefer the generator from "Worms 3D" no offence) and also if the moderators and/or "Team 17" have a problem with this thread then please don't hesitate to close it and I apologise for the inconveniece :).

In principle, the map formats are very similar (W4M can load W3D maps but not vice versa), so it ought to be possible to do it, but only if you could export the random maps as xom files, which I don't think there's any way to do.
Without that, you're looking at patching one game or the other, and that'd require source code to do (in any realistic time, anyway; K^2's still here in spirit ;)).
