KW maps created with worldbuilder (1.1.1) are always displayed in the game with missed.... Is that the case with you too? There is also a CTD when the R22j patch is activated. There is no CTD on R20e.

Was the worldbuilder modified?

#

Did you install mods in any way?

remote lichen Mar 4, 2025, 10:14 AM

#

There are no mods installed, the worldbuilder 1.1.1 is freshly installed. Should I reinstall everything again?

Where did you install the worldbuilder from?

#

Does this happen with the Steam release's native vanilla worldbuilder and without applying any patches?

GG @remote lichen, you just advanced to level 1!

#

Ok, then it is likely a custom worldbuilder issue, would advice to use the vanilla worldbuilder.

#

Yes, the problem has only existed for a few days

#

I'll try the vanilla worldbuilder right away

#

Unfortunately the same problem with the vanilla worldbuilder

#

remote lichen Unfortunately the same problem with the vanilla worldbuilder

oh, did you patch the game itself?

remote lichen Mar 4, 2025, 10:34 AM

#

No, via Steam and Command Post R22j maps and R22j patch

#

I'm reinstalling KW now. I deleted Steam and user folders

#

remote lichen I'm reinstalling KW now. I deleted Steam and user folders

Amazing, please retest and let me know the result

fading hare Mar 4, 2025, 10:37 AM

#

remote lichen I'm reinstalling KW now. I deleted Steam and user folders

So, just to check, you've nuked everything in the installation folder?

#

To make sure all mods and patches are in the land of the not-so living?

remote lichen Mar 4, 2025, 10:47 AM

#

The roaming folder is completely deleted. I'll add the map folder again later.

#

Steam folder looks like this.

#

I'm reinstalling KW now. Should I uninstall Tiberium Wars too?

#

And uninstall Command Post?

Don't know what it is honestly haha, but why not?

lets concentrate on KW for now

remote lichen Mar 4, 2025, 10:56 AM

#

Command post is uninstalled. But I don't know if there are any hidden folders left

fading hare Mar 4, 2025, 10:58 AM

#

Install directory got nuked, which is the most important thing

#

have you reinstalled KW?

remote lichen Mar 4, 2025, 11:05 AM

KW is installed, I'm now adding my maps to the maps folder

oh no, now all maps are “missing”.

fading hare Mar 4, 2025, 11:18 AM

#

remote lichen oh no, now all maps are “missing”.

Weird

#

Can anyone reproduce this issue?

remote lichen Mar 4, 2025, 11:18 AM

#

It seems like every new addition to the map folder gets this problem

fading hare Mar 4, 2025, 11:19 AM

#

likely stil the maps edited with the patched worldbuilder?

#

or also now with the vanilla worldbuilder?

remote lichen Mar 4, 2025, 11:21 AM

#

No, not all of them

#

Also the vanilla

fading hare Mar 4, 2025, 11:22 AM

#

Verify/validate install files please through Steam

remote lichen Mar 4, 2025, 11:23 AM

#

All maps from my map folder are now affected

#

No errors were found

#

Only the costum maps are affected

#

sorry, I have to work now, I'll get in touch later

remote lichen Mar 5, 2025, 6:52 AM

#

Maps from map packs and stock maps are not affected for me

remote lichen Mar 5, 2025, 9:08 AM

#

I have now installed the DVD version. The problem does not occur there

fading hare Mar 5, 2025, 10:04 AM

#

Thanks for the detailed info

#

Are the R22 maps affected by this issue as well?

remote lichen Mar 5, 2025, 10:40 AM

#

No the R22j maps work perfectly

#

When I have activated the RJ22j patch, I get a CTD for the custom maps.
The R20e does not cause a CTD
The map packs R22j /R20e both work perfectly

Reinstalling the game after wiping everything

Go into the installation folder of the game.
Wipe EVERYTHING in it from existence, delete ALL the files thus of the game by hand.
- Simple uninstall through EA or Steam might not help!
- No registry cleaner needed.
Reinstall the game then through EA or Steam. Or validate/verify installed files.
Then boot the game once.
Then after that redownload and reinstall Tacitus.

#

I suspect a downgrading/mod issue here, so better to start fresh

#

Do NOT install ANY mods yet

remote lichen Mar 10, 2025, 9:48 AM

#

I will test it today

remote lichen Mar 10, 2025, 5:56 PM

#

Unfortunately this didn’t work either

glacial mural Mar 10, 2025, 9:10 PM

#

Can you try something for me?

Check if MapCache.ini still exist in %appdata%\Command & Conquer 3 Kane's Wrath\Maps

If yes, remove it, then load your game into 1.02, the file will be re-created
It seems that 1.03 doesn't refresh nor recreate that file

But i am not sure if this gonna solve your exact problem but it does fix the unability to play skirmish or detect new map placed in that folder

interesting, adding this bit to my todo entry for this issue in the known issues list

#

Theory does sound plausible

remote lichen Mar 11, 2025, 8:27 AM

#

I deleted the file and the game recreated it, but the problem still exists. How can I go back to version 1.02?

ivory pawn Mar 11, 2025, 3:27 PM

#

Didn't really follow this but the Missing: is because of the update EA did to patch 1.3 (1.03)
Its a bug, it no longer show the names correctly for maps that are stored in \AppData\Roaming\Command & Conquer 3 Kane's Wrath\Maps It now store the maps in steam folder called Workshop.
You can still play the maps even though it say missing:

fading hare Mar 11, 2025, 4:01 PM

#

There is also a running theory on maybe mapcache.ini having to be recreated to force the game to fix this, but haven't had time to test that theory

remote lichen Mar 12, 2025, 8:19 AM

#

Thanks for the info. I also think it's something to do with MapCache.ini and version 1.03. I didn't have this problem with the DVD version and 1.02.

fading hare Mar 12, 2025, 11:16 AM

#

I'll look into this one of these days

fading hare Mar 31, 2025, 2:39 PM

#

Still have to look into this haha, lets keep this topic open

fading hare Apr 11, 2025, 2:04 PM

#

Hope to get to look into this this weekend or early next week

remote lichen Apr 13, 2025, 7:48 AM

#

Don't stress, thanks for your help👍

fading hare Apr 13, 2025, 10:13 AM

#

Is gonna be early next week haha

#

But do you have any otherissues or questions I could help with?

remote lichen Apr 14, 2025, 6:59 AM

#

I have to think about that first. But maybe I'll come up with something.😅

fading hare May 2, 2025, 6:03 PM

#

This is like my only major known issue still open on my todo list. Have been doing a lot of other things in the mean time haha. Hope to tackle this next week.
