Sins cannot find Galaxy Forge maps.

Need help :(

from Sins Forums

Hello guys!
I have made a map for Rebellion via the Galaxy Forge that comes with rebellion and added it to my galaxy forge folder inside my rebellion folder which is in my steam's common folder, however i cannot find the map when looking for it inside the game.
H:\Steam\steamapps\common\sins of a solar empire rebellion\Galaxy Forge\ultimatus.galaxy
I have steam installed on my H drive which is an SSD drive.
Here is the map if you want to try it out and see if it works.

You are putting it in the wrong folder. You only need to go the base game directory to get the tools.

All user created content goes in the "My Documents" -> "My Games" -> "Ironclad Games" -> "Sins of a Solar Empire Rebellion" folder. In that folder, there is a folder called GalaxyForge, which is where you can put your map and the game will add it to the Galaxy Forge tab in game.

This is what you use. Steam or no Steam.

No, this is what you use if you have Rebellion, which requires steam.

Might you have Trinity on steam? This only works for Rebellion. Regardless, if you go in game, to the main menu and to the mods tab, there is a "Show Mod Path" button. The last folder will say mods... but if you change it to GalaxyForge that is where you must put maps. This will work no matter how you game is installed.

Goafan you have saved my evening, many thanks.

Would it be too much trouble to put a little readme in the Galaxy forge folder?  Been saving it in the automatic folder for hours trying to figure out what's wrong...
