If you have the option "Is Scenario Multiplayer" set in your map settings, you need to uncheck this.

The place for the maps should be:

XP Users: C:\Documents and Settings\[Account Name]\Application Data\Game Name\Maps\

Vista Users: C:\Users\Account Name\appdata\Roaming\Game Name\Maps

NOTE: The Application Data folder is usually hidden. On the top of the explorer bar, click Tools --> Folder Options --> View --> Click Show Hidden Files and Folders button.

This is where WB should save your maps to as well.😉

Normally, when you download a map, it should contain a readme.txt file and most map-makers give instructions on how to extract the map files and where to put them.

You are extracting your downloaded maps from the compressed files, I assume? 😁

1/ Check it first :

If you have the option "Is Scenario Multiplayer" set in your map settings, you need to uncheck this.



2/ The folder name must be EXACTLY .map file in the folder. That mean if you saved it as "Test", then the folder must be named "Test", and there are 2 files : "Test.map" and "Test.tga" in that folder.

3/ I don't know why, but when I use Windows 7 (64bit), although I copied the map, I can't play them 😞

This looks correct.

Have you put any player starting waypoints in your testing map and added players - if not, your map will not show up for loading from the map selection menu.

Download the map .zip file to your desktop.

Right click on the .zip file and choose the extract option to extract the files.

See post number 2 above for your Operating System.
