If you've already cooked the map, you may not be able to save from it.

You may need to use the unpublished map file.

Duplicate everything.

This works well for static meshes, but not textures. You may have to reimport the textures into yoru new package (or map file), then open up each of your exisiting materials in the material editor, copy and paste the nodes, create a new material, paste the nodes back in, connect them to the main preview node, then reassociate what textures they are using (to the new package/map file).
