mutiplayer maps

[xNighthawk177x]

after you download the mutiplayer maps how do you use them? are they already in the game or do u put them there???

[xNighthawk177x]

okay basically i have it all down but there isnt an option to add the file to custom maps.. there is nothing that says custom maps under maps. someone please help

[Phayte]

C:\Users\Sarah\Documents\My Games\Gears of War for Windows\WarGame\Published\CookedPC\Maps\CustomMaps

[xNighthawk177x]

okay if i go to there using documents maps isnt an option but if i go into the program files there is a maps option i open maps up and there isnt no option for custom maps.. so do i just add a folder called custom maps then add them into the folder?

[Kantham]

You create the non-existing folder(s) exactly like said.

...\Gears of War for Windows\WarGame\Published\CookedPC\Maps\CustomMaps
Then open them in game via local host.

[xNighthawk177x]

in game via local host?? wats that mean

[Kantham]

Versus -> Local -> Host.

[Phayte]

that means you press either " ' " if your uk, or "¬" if your american and type open "mapname"

not literally mapname though...

alright guys.. and maybe girls.. thanks a lot im sure ill figure it out.. if not im an idiot :D

[Phayte]

why maybe girls?

And there is NO reason why you shouldnt be able to do it, all youve got to do is copy and paste really

[xNighthawk177x]

yes.. but i need step by step instructions.. and a video would help..
and maybe girls.. cuz i wasnt sure if u was a girl but i guess u r.. sorry

[Kantham]

We already provided you a step by step instruction.
It doesn't get harder than that.

[xNighthawk177x]

lol dude.. i added them into custom maps.. went into versus looked in the maps and NOTHING AT ALL!! same original maps.. so yeah there ya go

[Phayte]

Are you sure you're not questioner1?

ok.... ill go into baby talk.


Don't go into program files. You dont need to. Ever.

Go into "My documents" then "My games". When you are in "My games" you should see a file called "Gears of war for windows".

Now, I dont know whether you have the folders I am about to mention or not. If you don't you will need to create them using the new folder button when you right click in "Gears of war for windows".


In "Gears of war for windows" make a folder called "WarGame" and in there make one called"Published" and in there make one called "CookedPC" and in there make one called "Maps" and in there make one called "CustomMaps"

Paste the maps you have downloaded into CustomMaps.

Gaga.

[xNighthawk177x]

alright alright it makes sence now.. one thing... since i tried to do it in program files instead of documents.. is that why it wont work correctly?

[Phayte]

YES!

YOU DONT NEED TO GO INTO PROGRAM FILES.
