Maps from disk version
Hello I am thinking about buying the steam version of Age of Mythology since my Disk version does not seem to be working anymore for no apparent reason, and I am wondering if there is any way to transfer all of the maps i have saved from the disk version to the steam version. I would really apreciate any way to do this, I have hundreds of wonderful maps saved on an external drive and it would be a huge waste to loose them when i switch to the steam version.
-edit
sorry this isnt in the support section, the steam system wont let me post it there since i dont have the game yet.

This dev are a bunch of idiots, in the recent patch(v2.3) they blocked this feature so you can't play custom made random script maps. Instead of actually doing something to benefit the game, they actually wasted time to remove this feature.

They didn't remove it, just the file paths have changed. Put your random maps in mods\YourMod\rm2, NOT directly in \rm2.

Scenarios in mods\YourMod\scenario

I hope I can save all my maps/scenarios. Since the online mode on the disk version stopped working there would be no way to get them back if they were lost. And some of them are really beautiful maps too.

Yes they do work. I personally asked this support from the devs back when it was being released.

All scenario, and random map scripts are confirmed to work. I have plenty too which i transfered here. Be mindful though that there are some limitations since the release of chinese gods. Basically maps like bloodsports do not support the new gods, so you can play them normally as long as you don't use chinese god. If anyone uses chinese god, the map will likely break in game. In example at bloodsport chinese players have no buildings or TC and they die instantly.

I can still see many random map scripts like random land, jotunheim one, norse wars and scenarios like settlers and pit of doom and WMF and escape maps from the old game. They are still supported.

If everyone has the map, it will work but you can't transfer maps so you can't play with people who don't have them.

Ah I see. True but then try putting them in root\rm2\version2.0

You can transfer scenarios though.

And i believe even maps at \rm2\version2.0

It is something they need to fix though: online scenarios/rms should play and transfer through the mod manager link
