Maps

Is there anyway to bring a map from a different game to another?

There's a couple possible answers: If you mean the whole page with tokens and layers intact, then only via the transmogrification tool (PRO perk) or by copying the game that you want to pull it from. If you mean the map that you have on the map layer, it should be in your library of art assets and you can just pull it from there onto a new page regardless of campaign. Both of these answers assume that you are the creator (not just GM) of both campaigns.
Ive created my map using all roll20 equipment, but i need to bring it to a game i am just a GM of. I dont see it in my library either.

If you mean you assembled it from various map packs and what not directly in Roll20, you won't find it in your library. Roll20 doesn't make a new image out of the map that you assemble, all those graphics remain as discrete entities on the page. I'd recommend downloading the assets that you want to use and create the map in something like GIMP so that you can upload it as a single image. This will also make the page run smoother as Roll20 won't have to render many different images. If that's what you already did. The library might be dependent on the creator of the game, not your personal account (not sure on that though).
Alright thanks, I will try the gimp as my map is HUGE. The biggest ive seen anyway.

Arcio T. said: Ive created my map using all roll20 equipment, but i need to bring it to a game i am just a GM of. I dont see it in my library either. Scott described it well in 1st reply. You would need to be Creator (GM), not an appointed Co-GM, of the 2nd game in-order to copy the page with Transmogrify (a subscriber feature). Copy Game also would not apply to Arcio's use-case. If it is a single image (like Scott discussed in 2nd reply), then yes , a Co-GM can access their own Library to place images on the tabletop of someone else's (Creator) game. This method wouldn't bring a whole Roll20 Page with configurations, but works for a map graphic that is in the Co-GM's library (purchases or uploads) so that you (Co-GM) can build-out a Page in the game where you're Co-GM using the assets from your Library.
