Spring RTS Engine

How in the world do I get a map into spring lobby? I have made a map that works beautifully in the spring engine but when I go into the spring lobby to create a multiplayer game I cant get any new maps. Please help, I cant get any map into spring lobby other than a few that worked when I downloaded them. PLEASE help!

Springlobby uses Spring to tell it where maps are - it does not look for itself.

So, if what you say is true, either
(1) Springlobby doesn't know where your Spring is - see https://springrts.com/wiki/Read_Me_First
(2) You have multiple Spring installs, and only some of them know that your map exists. Check SL -> help -> system info to find out which one its using.

my question is where do I put maps so that spring will recognize them? (I am checking if I have multiple installs right now.)

in ../spring/maps

It wont load them? What do I have to do once they are already in that folder?

I found the solution, put maps In the maps folder in ...documents/games/spring/maps
