Do you have a Walkmask and a Background, have you compiled it with Garrison Builder?

Yes. I have playtested the map several times and it works fine. However, when I upload it from my maps folder and test it out by REdownloading it, it tells me there is no level data.

Where are you uploading it to? Please post a link.

I'm thinking that maybe photobucket doesn't work for this? Or maybe I'm up-loading wrong?

[Derpduck [LORD]]

You can't "upload it wrong" as such so maybe it's Photobucket. Try using something else. You should try it with someone else i.e. just host a normal server with those maps on them.

Don't use photobucket, it screws up maps. I use imageshack, which so far hasn't been too bad, and I've heard good things about imgur.

[Archangel]

Imageshack works? Ok, I'll try it. Thanks guys.

Just curious:
Is it impossible to make an animated map because it is a .png?
Because that would actually be awesome to see some animated maps.

[Derpduck [LORD]]

No with the current system. While it would be nice it's not really a priority: It probably won't be added into the game.

So I was thinking about a map.
There's this game mode that people play in Call of Duty or something called "Border Patrol." Basically, there are a whole bunch of dudes (maybe 10-20), and one sniper. The dudes have to run this obstacle course, and the sniper tries to shoot them all before they get to the end.

I made a walkmask for a similar idea in GG2, but I lost it. Basically, it was a very long hallway, through which runners would run. Once a runner got to the end, he could cap the point and win. Above this hallway was a whole bunch of sniper nests, through which snipers could shoot the runners as they ran past.

Does this seem like an interesting map? I could remake the walkmask, but I can't do art and Garrison Builder is super impenetrable.

I think that this was done before; I remember playing such a map. Honestly, it wasn't very fun.

not especially fun, but it's hosted by the randomizer servers once in a while
