There will be an update soon that fixes the issues that people are having with loose files being placed in their mods folder by the Map Manager. This error only affects users who have to manually select their mods folder.

A workaround for these users is to either
a) not have two separate installations of World at War (i.e. Steam and Disc versions)
or
b) remove conflicting registry entries for your World at War mods folder locations.

which leads to the Map Manager being able to correctly identify your mods folder location automatically.

If you cannot or don't want to do these steps you can just wait for the update, which will be out very soon after some testing.

This application has been updated to VERSION 1.3.4. This update fixes a bug where, when the mods folder was manually chosen, the program would dump the map files into the mods folder instead of installing them properly.

finally something that can manage maps

After downloading the two maps UGX Christmas and Moon, I cannot play either. For Moon, it does not launch a mod at all, it just returns to the vanilla game menu, and for UGX Christmas, my game crashes and says "Cannot load image 'ugx_christmas_load'".

For moon, not all maps have a custom menu. You have to enter "map *MAPNAME*" in the console for the map to boot. For UGX Christmas I would make sure you have no loose files in your directory, more info on that can be found here: UGX Map Manager FAQ If nothing above works I would first direct you here:How to play custom maps In case you missed something.

Sorry, but I cannot find a link to download this darn manager anywhere. D:
I looked all over the topic, and homepage.
Can someone provide me a link to directly download it?
Thanks a ton!

I would suggest using the download button to download the damn manager

=_=
It wasn't there.
I swear.
I would have clicked a button that obvious, trust me, I asked people on chat, and they verified that I wasn't insane.
And the main page was x-mas themed, too. -.-
But....Thanks anyways for replying at least.

Ah yes we had a bit of a site failure last night that was not even visible to admins - only regular users. It must have affected the appearance of the download button. No worries, you weren't crazy.

YAY! I'M NOT CRAZY.
TAKE THAT MENTAL HOSPITAL. IN YOUR FACE!
o.o So,...yea.

Hi folks!

Congrats on a really impressive and user-friendly site. I enjoy it a lot.

I am about as computer-illiterate as you can imagine, being an old fart and all. So please forgive me if there is an obvious fix to this problem.

I downloaded your UGX Map Manager with no difficulty. I tried to RUN it and got a message saying I need version 4.0.3 of NET FRAMEWORK. I am not sure what that is, but the prompt said to contact the program creators. Is this a new problem? I tried to read through as many of the pages here as possible, but may have missed one.

So sorry for any inconvenience, but if someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great.

Peace,

CFM

Welcome to the site, CFM. I'm glad that you find this site easy to use and enjoyable. That means a lot.

I would be happy to help you get this app running. .NET Framework is a package from Microsoft that you need to install for this app to run on your computer. You can download that package from here: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=17851

Once you get that installed, you should be able to run the program. If it doesn't work, just come right back and we'll get it working.

Why can't we change the game directory in UGX Map Manager?
Not everyone installs the game to that one location, and most people now have a Program Files (x86)/(x64) rather than just Program Files as their default installation directory.

It doesn't matter where you install it, your mods folder will always be located under appdata/../mods unless you are using Link Shell Extension, which is usually rare. If the map manager cannot find your mods folder it will ask you for a new location, which means unless its popping up with a window asking you to specify that, it knows where your mods folder is located.

I'm getting this:


That wouldn't be a problem if the manager wasn't required to launch maps using this file system:

It is required, isn't it?
