Are you planning to make use of the tile groups?
Side node: The tile groups were the extra data at the end of .map files that never got loaded by the game. They contain all the things like doodads, such as volcanos, cracks, craters, cliffs. Although, some mixing is need to really make full use of the cliffs. Plus, some groups contain similar single tiles, and others needed to be pasted as a whole. The second map editor made use of this info.
