2. In the dialog box, click Yes and in the next dialog, click OK.

3. Save your level.

5. Choose Game, Terrain, Export/Import Megaterrain Texture.

6. In the Export/Import Megaterrain Texture tool, click and drag to select all of the tiles.

7. Click Change tile resolution, select 2048x2048, and then click OK.

   Your result should look like the following. You can now import and export high quality textures.
