dwt is the extension for a drawing template file and most of us have Layer Filters preset in them. What exactly are you asking?

Yes. You're right. I have problem when I export my dwg from C3D and then filters dissapear. Is it option to copy them or create using lisp?

How do you export them and with what settings?

As LayerSaveFilterTree & LayerLoadFilterTree are Civil 3D commands they only work in Civil 3D.

There are lisp options for loading Layer Filters as in this example:

; (load "LayFilterAdd.lsp") ; ^C^C^P(or LayFilterAdd (load "LayFilterAdd.lsp"));(LayFilterAdd) ; [B][COLOR="#FF0000"]Newer versions automatically display Xref Layer Filters **Adding Xref Layer Filter names the same as them can cause serious issues**[/COLOR][/B] ; Save, close and reopen the DWT or DWG for the Filters to be put into alphabetical order. (defun LayFilterAdd (/ collection names) ; (load "LFD.lsp") ; (command "C:LFD" "All*") *Layers (setq names (list "")) (if (not (vl-catch-all-error-p (setq collection (vl-catch-all-apply (function (lambda () (vla-item (vla-getextensiondictionary (vla-get-layers (vla-get-activedocument (vlax-get-acad-object)))) "ACAD_LAYERFILTERS"))) )))) ; (vlax-for item collection (setq names (cons (strcase (vla-get-name item)) names)))) (vlax-for item collection (setq names (cons (vla-get-name item) names)))) names (or(member "CALC Points" names)(command "._-layer" "filter" "new" "property" "All" "NAME==\"V-NODE-CALC\" or NAME== \"Layer*\"" "CALC Points" "X" nil)) (or(member "HATCH No xrefs" names)(command "._-layer" "filter" "new" "property" "All" "NAME==\"~*|*\" and NAME==\"*HATCH\"" "HATCH No xrefs" "X" nil)) (or(member "Linetype" names)(command "._-layer" "filter" "new" "property" "All" "LINETYPE==\"~Continuous\"" "Linetype" "X" nil)) (or(member "Lineweight" names)(command "._-layer" "filter" "new" "property" "All" "LINEWEIGHT==\"~Default\"" "Lineweight" "X" nil)) (or(member "NCS" names)(command "._-layer" "filter" "new" "property" "All" "NAME==\"[A,C,E,L,V]-*\" or NAME== \"Layer*\"" "NCS" "X" nil)) (or(member "NCS No xrefs" names)(command "._-layer" "filter" "new" "property" "All" "NAME==\"~*|*\" and NAME==\"[A,C,E,L,V]-*\" or NAME== \"Layer*\"" "NCS No xrefs" "X" nil)) (or(member "No NCS" names)(command "._-layer" "filter" "new" "property" "All" "NAME==\"~[A,C,E,L,V]-*\"" "No NCS" "X" nil)) (or(member "No NCS or xrefs" names)(command "._-layer" "filter" "new" "property" "All" "NAME==\"~*|*\" and NAME==\"~[A,C,E,L,V]-*\"" "No NCS or xrefs" "X" nil)) (or(member "No NODE" names)(command "._-layer" "filter" "new" "property" "All" "NAME==\"~*|*\" and NAME==\"[A,C,E,L,V]-*\" and NAME==\"~*-NODE*\" or NAME== \"Layer*\"" "No NODE" "X" nil)) (or(member "NODE" names)(command "._-layer" "filter" "new" "property" "All" "NAME==\"~*|*\" and NAME==\"[A,C,E,L,V]-*\" and NAME==\"*-NODE*\" or NAME== \"Layer*\"" "NODE" "X" nil)) (or(member "Profile" names)(command "._-layer" "filter" "new" "property" "All" "NAME==\"C-ROAD-PROF*\" or NAME== \"Layer*\"" "Profile" "X" nil)) (or(member "Sections" names)(command "._-layer" "filter" "new" "property" "All" "NAME==\"C-ROAD-SEC*\" or NAME== \"Layer*\"" "Sections" "X" nil)) (or(member "Topo" names)(command "._-layer" "filter" "new" "property" "All" "NAME==\"C-TOPO*\" or NAME== \"Layer*\"" "Topo" "X" nil)) (princ "Layer Filter Names » ")(princ names) ; (princ "\nSave, close and reopen the DWT or DWG for the Filters to be put into alphabetical order.")

Show your work: share the DWT/DWG file and your LAS files that you wish to add to it.

No way to tell what you've done wrong without knowing what you did.

Did you try LayerSaveFilterTree & LayerLoadFilterTree commands as you seem to be using Civil 3D?

Which lisp did you try? Was it saved in the Support File Search Path? Did you load it prior to running it? Did it return an error?
