Can play my map, but it's file doesn't exist. Any ideas?

To make a long story short, I made a map on a computer that broke down, and I can no longer use it or access the files on it. Prior to that, I compiled it into an .SGA, and put it on another computer to test run it.

There was at some point an update for the game, and since that update, I can still play the map on the computer, but the .SGA is completely gone. It cannot be found in any folder related to Company of Heroes 2. Not in Documents/My Games/Company of Heroes 2, not in the primary Steam folder, nowhere. It seems to have ...completely vanished.

Obviously, the map still exists in some form, somewhere. I've attempted extracting various .SGA files related to maps, but they only yield Relic-made maps. Community maps show up as numerical files in Documents/My Games/ etc. My map was never uploaded, so it can't be found in there either.

Does anyone have an answer to this? I'm completely baffled.

The SGA file isn't located in

Code

\Documents\My Games\Company of Heroes 2\mods\scenarios

?
If not, very weird.

As I said in my original post, the map was never uploaded to the workshop.

Where did you put it, on the other computer to test it?

apparently my dyslexian brain skipped that line...

okey i dont know if windows would allow coh2 to do this, or if your computer had enough whit disk-space to do this.

please check if you have a root folder on your C drive named Windows.old, if you have folder it's possible that coh2 of some reason reads from your old user.

if this folder does exist, then try this:

Code

C:\Windows.old\Users\"user"\Documents\My Games\Company of Heroes 2\mods\scenarios

One solution is to upload the map to workshop and download it again

Rosbone: @dasheepeh I guess that means this site is officially dead

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money

Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM

Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM

Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.
27 Mar 2025, 09:30 AM

Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy

Soheil: Coh2 still broken server ?

Rosbone: Congrats to Relic. Looks like Coh3 has finally usurped Coh2 s the popular Coh. You smell terrific.

Willy Pete: @Nickbn you didn't ask a question, and this is a chat box...
20 Mar 2025, 13:11 PM

Nickbn: @Rosbone it's incredibly rude to speak on someone elses behalf, especially when a question is directly adressed to them. I understand your passion for the subject at hand but I want to hear from him.
20 Mar 2025, 10:16 AM

Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.
