Re: Custom Maps | C&C3: Kane's Wrath | Ultimate Collection | Origin | Windows 8.1

I am in the exact same boat, but my buddy has all the maps.  His just works and mine does not, we have been working on this issue periodically for over a year.  I am about done with this *.

    u have to make a regedit for custum maps to work.

    paste this text in a text file and save it as " .reg " 

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Electronic Arts\Electronic Arts\Command and Conquer 3 Kanes Wrath]
    "Hash"=dword:7e4fc7ba
    "Version"=dword:00010000
    "Readme"="H:\\Program Files (x86)\\Command and Conquer 3 TW and KW\\Command Conquer 3 Kanes Wrath\\Support\\readme.txt"
    "InstallPath"="H:\\Program Files (x86)\\Command and Conquer 3 TW and KW\\Command Conquer 3 Kanes Wrath\\"
    "ProfileFolderName"="Profiles"
    "SaveFolderName"="SaveGames"
    "UserDataLeafName"="Command and Conquer 3 Kanes Wrath"
    "ScreenshotsFolderName"="Screenshots"
    "ReplayFolderName"="Replays"
    "Language"="english"
    "Package"="{CC2422C9-F7B5-4175-B295-5EC2283AA674}"
    "MapPackVersion"=dword:00010000
    "UseLocalUserMaps"=dword:00000000

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Electronic Arts\Electronic Arts\Command and Conquer 3 Kanes Wrath\ergc]
    @="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"

    H:\Program Files (x86)\Command and Conquer 3 TW and KW\Command Conquer 3 Kanes Wrath

    instead of the XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX, u need to go to regedit in windows, search for 'ergc'. there u double click on DEFAULT and it will show u your serial key. copy/paste that serial key and paste it in the .reg file in place of the XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX 

    Also... u have to change the paths 'Readme'= 

    And obviously also change the path 'InstallPath'=

    I understand this is complicated, but it does work 100% if done correctly.

    U basically tell the game where to find the custom maps, coz it doesn't know this originally.

    I did exactly as you said, but I still don't have my custom map showing in Skirmish..
