Hi there.

How do you export tilemaps into GameMaker Studio v2  (GMS2) or Import into GMS2 the output files? Or is there another tool that can import the output format of this tool and then subsequently export to GMS2?

Thanks

Tilekit can export to the .tmx format used by Tiled -- there may exist tools for converting .tmx files to a format which is compatible with GMS2

Thanks I will investigate further. Looks like I could possibly use Tilekit and then load into Tiled and then use GMTiled2 by Meseta | GameMaker: Marketplace (yoyogames.com) to import the TMX files directly in. Seems to have some limitations. Thanks for the response. 

He says it exports to JSON.  I'm pretty sure GMS2 put JSON support in, perhaps that can be used to parse the files?
