Map editor and multiplayer problems

Maps not loading in multiplayer

from GalCiv3 Forums

Thought I would celebrate the recent upgrade to gigantic maps by crafting one to play with my son. However none of the maps I created show in multiplayer. My old ones are still there and usable but none of the ones created this weekend (since download axing the latest patch) show in multiplayer - has something changed? They are there for single player but not multiplayer for some reason. All my old maps are there for either single or multiplayer but not the new ones - help please.

I looked at this and it seems that only gigantic maps are not loadable from the MP screen.  Is this your experience as well?  

The load dialog is apparently filtering gigantic maps.  I've made a note of it and we'll fix it in a future update.

Game cache validated fine - I think pshaw has hit the problem on the head. Any small or Tiny etc maps I make work/load fine, but Gigantic don't. I guess Stardock haven't quite enabled gigantic maps for multiplayer as announced last week. Hopefully in this/next week's patch or the opt-in for 1.4.
