Retrieving maps from L3DT

To retrieve maps from the L3DT project, use the following values of lpMapName:

lpMapName	Which map is it?
“project.DM”	The design map.
“project.HF”	The heightfield.
“project.WM”	The water map.
“project.WS”	The water salinity map.
“project.AM”	The attributes map.
“project.TN”	The terrain normals map.
“project.LM”	The light map.
“project.TX”	The texture map.

map_GetMap is equivalent to calling var_GetVar with an lpVarName of “maps.[insert lpMapName here]”, but is guaranteed to return either a ZMAP of type VarID_map, or NULL. In contrast, map_GetMap will return other variable types too.
