hi,

I tried my best to give my new map a name by using the map.str file. it looks simply like this:

MAP:Name
"Name"
End

But that doesn't work
Either the map won't be listed in the menu or the map name will be ignored... Name.map is the result then.
Is there any possibility to fix that problem? I guess the map.str file only works in conjunction with scripts and nothing else, right? :cry:

Well, i have also had some problems with getting my map available to be selected from the menu...i think the best thing to do is:
1 rename the map
2 resave the map
3 change the map.str around a bit [i found that some maps with .str's arent selectable]
4 Make sure its a user map
5 Dump the map to a file...

If I've read correctly between the lines it's possible with map.str to set a name for the map?
But how? I know for sure that the label must look like this: "MAP:Name" Others didn't work with csf when I tried this. But I still do not know how fix it

I wonna avoid stupid non-map-names like "MyMap.map" as you always see when u go in a lobby and play custom maps... that's not very nice. My map should get a real string name, so that it looks only like "My Map" (without *.map)

HINT: in my case I can't use the normal CSF file, cause the mod has already been released and the latest maps should be available for download then. (Tower Defense: Trinity Force mod; also in english btw)

a csf file shouldnt be necessary tho...

so basically, you just cant choose your map from the map list in the skirmish/multiplayer map window?
