I don't think it's possible.
In GE and PD all of the game's textures are stored in a single place, each with an unique ID. In more modern games each level is more self contained, containing all the textures and other stuff in the same file/folder, and making as few references to outside resources as possible. Converting a level in such environments requires less work since you only need to care for the level you are working on each time, but in PD you need to think of the whole game.
Limiting our talk to textures, the textures you import for one level can affect the rest of the game.
Theoretically it would be possible to make very complex code to take care of it all in an automated fashion, but it would probably involve tons of work for SubDrag to get it working flawlessly in order to afford you comparatively very little work.

And anyway, after you import the level, and texture it, the texture IDs would need to be changed by Wreck in order to integrate it in the main ROM he's working on.

Hm i see but when i import one at a time it look werd like it dus not fit what so ever. Let say in Goldeneye Aztec the tiles in it is strets and it looks normel but in PD when i import the texter for the tiles it look like its in 32 bit and not strets thats my porblem.

I'll be heading back home on Tuesday and getting down to business with GE:X. I can try to help you out in a few days, and hopefully get the ball rolling with the Aztec. It'll be nice having another person pitching in, so I look forward to seeing what you can do.

glad to see another level in the works.

the texturing isn't a problem, here is what you do:

1. open up the textures editor in PD editor.
2. at the bottom left theres a button to import GE textures, press it.
3. choose the Textures.bin file that was processed when you converted the background (should be in same folder as background file)
4. save out the new rom
5. now save the project and when it asks for you to select your base rom, select the one you have just created.
6. now close your project and reopen it.

all textures should now be in place, now dont worry if there are some textures that dont look rite or some objects that have strange texture issues because wreck will sort that out when he puts your level in the the main GE:X rom

hope this helps

Aries, when you export the BG from the GE side, save it in a different folder than everything else, like a folder named BG Data.

Then you'll see texture.bin

its very simple, All you do is rescale the bg and export it like DB's tutorial.
