Hello everyone,,
I've been meaning to write this up a while but since some months ago when you export a Module in FGC that has masked map images when you open the images after loading the module the maps are not masked. The map mask use to be export as well but it no longer is spammer links deleted. Please fix this, it is annoying to have to go remask every map in an imported module - and since it use to - if I'm not paying attention I'll share a map with out a mask.

I'm pretty sure that masks have never exported into a module. Masks are retained in a different file inside the campaign and are not stored in the db.xml of the campaign. But since I've never exported a map with a mask I can't be sure about that. If you need the mask in the meantime you can copy the folder called maskedimages from the campaign you are exporting from into the one you are opening the module in.

Masks can't be exported into a module, and you never could do that. As Zacchaeus mentions, they're campaign specific.

I'm pretty sure there was a time they exported though I think it was in FG2.

They have never exported to modules for as long as I've been around. (almost 12 years)
