<p>Hello all!</p><p>Is there a way to use the EQ2 housing layout editor in our dungeons? </p><p>I am referring to this one: <a href="http://www.eq2designers.com/">http://www.eq2designers.com/</a></p><p>In a house or guild hall we need to use the packing crate to use the with/without/working macros.  Does anyone know if there is a way to do the same thing in a dungeon?</p><p>Thank you!</p><p>Quijana</p>

<p>I apologize for continuing to drag this topic up, but I am really struggling with the editor. </p><p>Can someone walk me through it a bit?</p><p>My dungeon I am trying to create is called Zombie Apocalypse!</p><p>I have no idea how to save it under "with" or "without" or by any other name at all.  And I really want to use the "new from diff" option as there are TONS of things in the dungeon, including all the default stuff which I have been taking out, but still a lot there.</p><p>So how do I save the dungeon under a different name?  If one of you would be so kind as to type out the instructions, I would be very grateful.</p><p>Thank you!</p><p>Quijana</p>
