FT3 Real World Data conversion
Here is the FT3(+) .ftw file of the lower resolution data of the same map as above. The high resolution file is 100 times bigger...but also more detailed of course...

FT3 Real World Data conversion
Not directly as far as I know. But there is a (rather complicated) possibility to transform those datasets into a file format that can be imported into FT3. I gave it a try in Windows (though there might be much more, better and faster ways in Linux/Unix) and have converted one file (Map07 - 20Ma higher resolution) to a .mdr file which looks like this in FT3+:
The data behind this map belong to Christopher R. Scotese and Nicky M. Wright and they are using following licence: Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International
And the exported map in CC3+ (Jendor-Style):
Here is the belonging CC3+ File if somebody is interested...

Export FT3 files as additional annuals?
The Realms of Legend uses its own color palette. You have to save the palette (PALSAVE) and have to load it into the new template you are creating for Realms of Legend by PALLOAD. In the export file for FT3+ you have to use the same color indices for contours - exactly those that are used in e.g. Realms of Legend.
I do not know if there is a simpler way - but this worked fine for me. I created (just for fun) a template och an export file for the annual style "Comic Overland" (issue 78 comic book maps). If somebody is interested I can post the files. They are just an outcast -things like sheets have to be cleaned up still...but I think the result looks almost as expected...
