Ive made a custom map and saved it to the correct path (c\programfiles86\steam\steamapps\companyofheroes2\coh2\data\scenarios\mp,or something along that line)

When I hit export it says its saving it to c\documents\my games\company of heroes 2\coh2\data\scenarios.

After loading up the game, it doesn't show up in either the custom game nor the modding hub.

Any ideas?

Wired, the steps you did were all correct. I am not sure but maybe these tips could help you.

1. Are you sure you have a map description in your map settings?

Open your map in worldbuilder -) Scenario -) Scenario Properties -) Map name and type i. e.: (6 - 8) Famonville

Export your map again to the game. Open the game and browse your maps.

and/or

2. You need to create an own folder for saving your maps under:
(C:\programfiles86\steam\steamapps\common\companyofheroes2\coh2\data\scenarios\mp).

Edit: I think it is point 1.

I checked the description and it already had the map name. Though I did change it to as follows
" (2-4) Night Drop ", and added a small description. Not sure I totally understand option 2, but option 1 didn't work.

what is your mapfiles name?

Well I heard abut this issue a while ago.

Try to save your map under a new name in a new folder. Then close worldbuilder, restart, load the map with its new name and try to export it again.

Don´t use line breaks.

New name for your map could be: NightDrop

Don´t use (2-4) in the name, it is only necessary in the scenario properties.

aerafield: @LimaOscarMike I would say nowadays is a decent time to try CoH3. If you loved CoH2 however, there is a solid chance you're gonna dislike CoH3

LimaOscarMike: My laptop can't even run COH3. Should I get them on my Series X or is it dead yet?

Rosbone: One of my last major gripes about Coh3. Price is still too high I feel for growth. But progress is always good.

Rosbone: I am not 100% sure but I think Relic actually fixed up the skirmish menus a little last patch. If so, thank you and keep it coming.

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.
