      I think you need to unzip the files and then delete the zip file.

      The real issue might be that the zip file structure needs a map folder?

        @christian-dutrow This should make it work

        1. Open the folder <user>/triplea/downloadedmaps
        2. Extract the files from russian_civil_war.zip
        3. Delete the zip file
        4. Rename the folder, removing "-master"
        5. Go into the folder. You will see another folder ending "-master". Go into that.
        6. Copy everything in that folder to the clipboard
        7. Go back into the main folder. Paste everything in
        8. Delete the "-master" folder

        It will work now. I am not sure why the downloader is messing some mods in this fashion.

          Why does the zip file need a map folder? These mods play perfectly well on my computer without a map folder or ending with -master.

              I try that with next mod I post and see if it helps.

                Note: I would prefer house rules people to choose a set of rules they like and make a mod, rather than having a huge number of options.

                  @christian-dutrow yea this one pops up a lot. I think the workaround is as the Dog says here

                  https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/issues/10914

                  Try a new 2.6 prerelease or go to your DL maps folder and open the zip and rename that folder without the -master at the end. Leave that folder in DL maps and make sure the zip is no longer there

                  oops see this already answered. Musta missed a page lol

                      I am not sure how to find out version number of the map. The map I have is the latest from the repository.

                      There may be some confusion between "Global 1940 House Rules" and " Global 40 House Rules.

                            As much as I love hoarding scenarios, maybe one of those mods should be deprecated.

                              • This game is simply confusing. It is hardly the only map using a fictional setting, but those other maps are far more comprehensible. There is little description of the setting and the territory names are colorless. Using the names of real countries makes it worse. Britain and France seem randomly scattered over the world.

                                @rogercooper yes I appreciate simon doing the original one because my machine fried and I lost all my work. I also appreciate he added Canada as well. I asked him to delete it since "Global 40 House Rules" has everything that "1940" does.

                                        Congratulations on the new arrival. NWO Andrews plays like WW1, with stalemate in the west, and the Germans advancing against the poorly-prepared Russians in the east.

                                          @rogercooper it should be hard for germany to attack Fr and Russia simultaneously, and hard for Russia to attack Germany early in the game. I'm working on something with negative NOs for Russia and US, to keep them out of the early game.

                                            You could simply delay their declaration of war or restrict their movement early in the game. Negative NO's are ignored by the AI.
