- add the gmap name to the file loadgmaps.txt in your Graal folder (create the file if it doesn't exist)
- edit levels/tiledefs/tiledefsOffline.txt and copy everything from levels/tiledefs/tiledefsZone.txt, adding your new gmap name replacing one of the existing gmaps, e.g. to make a map using the alpha tileset (cut the .gmap from the name):
