Old map, new materials. [Issue with material update]

Introduction

Hello fellow developers, as you may know, if you regularly use studio. New materials and pre-existing materials have been added/updated to/in roblox studio. About this, I’m trying to get my older map from 2020 to use the 2022 textures, such as the new slate, metal, and wood planks.

Issue explanation / conclusion

If you have any idea how to get Roblox studio or an older map to conform to using new textures/materials. Please reply to this post with an explanation of how.

Or reply if it’s not possible and if I have to make a suggestion on DevForum/Move my current map to a new baseplate (very inconvenient due to scripts that run this version of this game and the old version together so you can teleport from one another.)

Thank you for reading.

it’s just a property in the material service. find it in the explorer and enable “use2022 materials”
