Re: C&C TD: Published map not available for online lobbies

My maps just uploaded to the User Maps!

I had to do a few things though. To all who read this do the following:

1. Go to the Workshops and then go to your own personal workshop that have all your maps.

2. Click on one of your maps, if you've reuploaded the map there should be a button called Change (view). Click that link.

3. There will be a Steam license agreement that you need to accept before it will accept the latest published version.

At this point it may or may not work. If it does NOT work then continue the following steps.

4. Open the Maps .mpr file and delete the line that has the steamworkshop id. Save the file.

5. Publish the map as a new map after deleting it from the Workshop.

The maps should publish to the User Maps shortly thereafter.

    @Destructor19341 Nice. It was passed on internally, but we had no idea if more steps would be needed to make the affected maps work. Thanks for the overview. Might be worth mentioning the map is .ini on TD.

    Also, in case step #4 and #5 are needed, you might want to mention that it's a good idea to remove the original workshop item to avoid duplicates 😉

    @Destructor19341or we wait for EA to come back to us with an official solution that does not involve us hacking around with their game files.

    I have great respect for the people who investigate and find possible workarounds but consider that we all have paid a lot of money for this remaster and with that we expect the in-game features to work, or else why bother having them.

    I'm quite tired at this moment of not hearing anything from an official EA employee regarding this issue, because it seems to be a problem with their sync routine on AWS (qualified guess) and if it's that then it's not really any work that has to be done on the game itself just their background service on AWS which probably any developer can fix if they get assigned to it.

    Sorry if my message sounds hostile towards you because it's not my intention, but I hope you understand my frustration 🙂 I'm glad you found a way for us to work around this issue, Very good work !

    @Tiinusen Simple fact is, support from EA stopped after the last patch. Everyone working on the project moved on to other projects, because, you know, as employees of EA, they do need to actually have work to do. So we were lucky to get this through somehow.

  • I've tried your solutions approx 7 times, sadly didn't work, maybe I rushed it, I had 2-3 minutes between each attempt. did it for my TD map

    @Tiinusen 

    I didn't test it myself... but I know it was reported internally and was looked at, so I just wanted to make sure that message was passed on, at least. I actually came here looking for confirmation on whether it was fixed so far.

  • I can hereby confirm that the solution works, the only factor missing was time when I tried the solution, In short I rushed it.

    So the only addition needed to the solution would be, If it dosen't work, try again, and again, and again, BUT, give it 15-60 minutes between each try.

    I've successfully managed to get my "Tannsjo" map published in TD, my other map however didn't, but now I know I just need to keep trying and it will sooner or later pop up 🙂

    Huge thanks to everyone involved in this issue and especially to Destructor19341

    To everyone that has been helped by this thread, please provide Destructor19341 with the XP he deserves

    @Destructor19341 I dont find the Button "Change (view)" are you sure it called that? Also the Steam Agreement dont show up after its already aggreed.
  • @kuma20xx If you click on your map, on the right hand side it has the File Size, the Date posted and the Change Note ( view ). The view is a link. If you click that link there would be a Steam Agreement that you had to accept. However that was the old solution before this happened again.

    @Nyerguds  Unfortunately this hasn't solved the issue yet .

    Here is instructions on how to find the Workshop agreement 

    There is a " workshop agreement" and a " subscriber agreement " that you must now agree to.

    1, You need to open your workshop files (so you can see your maps)

    2. on the right side under Your Workshop it has 2 links , 1, Enter or Update your Payment Info 2. View Legal agreement

    3. Click on the Enter or Update your payment info , This takes you to a Getting Paid on steam page, Look down the right side and you will see a Link

    Workshop Legal Agreement Click that link.

    4 at the top of this page you will likely see some green writing that says when you accepted the Steam Subscriber agreement .. If you scroll down the page you should see another button that says " Accept both again"

    After you press this button you should see two green lines at the top of the page the new line should say "You have accepted this latest version of the Steam Workshop Agreement" You might have to reopen this page again , i forgot if it reloaded it self.

    Then delete the map from steam , set the published Field = 0 in the mpr/ini  , and try republishing you map .

    It hasn't worked for me yet ,(i signed the workshop one 3 days ago  and just tried another copy of of a map) 

    but if you do manage to get a map published let us know here
    , Also it might be wise to wait say 1/2 hour after doing this part before trying to republish maps
