World Creator 2023.4 height map export problems

Hi,
I am new to World Creator and I am simply trying to export the height maps (ideally as 32bit tiff). I can see WC is generating raw files during export but after some time the process finishes but there are no maps except 8 .raw maps which ure unusable and seem to be a leftover from a broken export process before cleaning up. I tried different split resolutions, detail levels, file formats and multiple drive destinations but it is always the same.

Is there someone who has experienced or solved export problems in the Black Friday WC 2023.4 app?


Thank you

I have found the reason and wanted to share.
WC exports the maps to the documents/World Creator for Octane / Export folder. I have expected that WC uses the project folder destination but it seems that it ignores it and always uses the documents folder instead.
So check out this folder to find your maps. WC 2022 will ask for the export destination explicitely but it seems that WC 2023 is a bit less intuitive in this regard.
