Hello guys. Is there a definitive and crystal CLEAR idiots guide to getting your map in-game?. Ive created several cracking maps but have little understanding of file structures, file types etc I just want to know very simply how to get it working but everything ive read so far seems convoluted or is contradicted by other posts eleswhere, eg.g where the maps are saved (pvp, maps, assets, game assets etc). Can somebody please help an old duffer, I really want to release maps into the community!!!

Warcraft 2 that was supposed to say.

Well, as much as I like the game, many RTS games allow for easy map sharing between players and don't have this kind of cumbersome hassle associated with it. I mean even Warcraft III, circa 1994 I think,, had a map editor and could share maps with other players easily. You would think the developers of these newer RTS's would now that that is part of the resson those games were so successful.

this is how the game is and the name of the thing is -dev modname and something that you must enter in set launch option for you to play your map
Count_Iblis 28 Aug, 2009 @ 4:42pm 
What is this -mod junk. Why can't I just put the map in a folder and have it available in all multiplayer games. You know, like Starcraft.

Looking for 2 volunteers to test out my 2p_cata_lowlands map. Download can be found here http://www.gamereplays.org/community/index.php?showtopic=510510 . Add me to your friends list! Cheers

Same here, psyched out the map editor function. Does it involve a script option to craft 1 player maps ala StarCraft? I think that you could make way better single player mission than the campaign with that. . . or at least to the mix and make it less monotonous. My two cents.
Sneaky 10 Jul, 2009 @ 7:05pm 
ask me if u need a playtester for your map
