How do you do this, I spent days on making this map but I don't know how to change it into a mod.

I do stuff and thingies... Try widening and reducing the number of small nooks and crannies to correct the problem.

Unfortunately, there is no easy way. Basically, there are two solutions:

A: you copy and paste everything from the map to the mod switching back and forth from map to mod.

B: you save the map as a componentsList, which means you save the map uncompressed as a folder instead of a single file. You do the same with a mod file. Then you can copy and paste the game data files into the mod. In addition to that, you might need to add entries into the componentsList file via a text editor respectively.

You'd think someone would have come up with an automation method for B by now...

TheHappy115 -- Yea, thats the issue. Thanks. It would also explain why my deleted map couldn't get updated. Updated version reduced collision on units (only thing added) since was dodging game (players collide with each other)

Ultraviolet -- If so, I'd just focus on getting them on scmscx.com and then you can link to that in the showcase thread for your maps

Ultraviolet -- I can't upload my EUD maps, I think the DLDB has some issue with handling them. Are you trying to upload EUD maps?

TheHappy115 -- Its been awhile but ever since I requested one of the Maps I posted to be deleted since I couldn't delete it myself (or update it), I haven't been able to upload any more maps. Any reason for that?
