Ok, I can't upload the map that I just made.  I made sure its the right file, and I submitted a score.  It doesn't give an error, i'm unable to click the 'upload button'. 


EDIT: i reproduced this with the same map.  although this might be related: it says that its not the right filename, that it has to end in .cw2, which it does...

If there are any other . characters in the filename, that is usually the cause.

You don't have to play it again if you just rename the map file before uploading.  Just changing the file name to something else doesn't change the map's Id.  If you save it again from the editor, that is another story...

ah....  well, i played it again anyway.  thx for the tip though, its good to know!

What?

It took me a minute to figure out what you were saying :)
I think you were saying that you did not add a map description and that you can't upload your map.  If so, try it again.  I had a check on the server for a description field and this should be optional.

Note that if you really did mean to put a description and you want to post the map that has a description, then yes you have to post a score before it can be uploaded.

I finished the map and played it and submitted a score before a descritption was added. That was a mistake on my part. I guess I'll finish it again.
