Import FH5 EventLab Island blueprints to future games

Have an import option in Forza Horizon 6 to import FH5 Island creations to FH6 Island map files.

If you import a map it is automatically tagged as an FH5 map. When you publish the new FH6 blueprint (as it’s tagged) it will be hidden from listed eventlabs and default searches.

Gamers will have to select an additional search filter to see them eg “FH5 map”.

This would allow creators to make updates to their favourite FH5 creations whilst preventing spam of old tracks in FH6 EventLab search and general lists. This would help keep the focus on newer EventLab creations.

NOTE: for maximum compatibility reasons only the props are imported to a file, not the race line and checkpoints which will need to be redrawn. If this makes it easier to implement.

This is an excellent idea. Lot of work went into those and it would be a shame for them to be lost or to have to go through the trouble of making them again from scratch.
