Help. Troubles with maps.

[EdwardNigma]

I'm downloading the map, it appears in the folder, but when I go to the game, read in game chat that "EdwardNigma don't have this map".
Refaf? Check. Restart PC? Check. Reinstall? Check. Angry? Check.

i checked "Frequent Technical Issues" and didnt find the way

the red text above has some useful links explaining how to make a proper post in the tech support

the most important thing is to post a log file which will help us finding out why something doesn't work

my guess is that your windows username contains some strange chars (like cyrillic or something like that) which causes the game to not see mods stored in your documents folder
but i can't say for sure unless i see the client log/game log files

Sorry for the wrong start post. I send some logs.
I played about 100 games by old PC with win7. Now i have new PC with win10. And this version of launcher is very different. I remember another

from the game log:

Code: Select all

info: mounting maps from: C:\Users\pingv\OneDrive\Документы\My Games\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance\maps\

make sure onedrive is not used as the default place to store files
you want to store files in your local documents folder instead

also -> Документы seems to be the russian word for Documents
I hope that your regular local documents folder has a more sensible name without the use of cyrillic chars
otherwise you will run into the issue i described above already

I renamed "Документы" and nothing changes. I dont have OneDrive like a program.
Screw it, i just copied all maps to steamapps folder and it works

[PhilipJFry]

the client asks your OS where your documents folder is and your OS must have told the client that it's in the onedrive folder

you can probably also change this by editing the client prefs (which is where the path to the maps/mods folder is stored for the client)
the client prefs file is located in %appdata%\Forged Alliance Forever\
