Attention MapMakers -- Please READ!!!!!
I have a serious suggestion to make for all mapmakers, that would solve some annoying problems and make things easier.
When you name your maps can you name them for example
BattleforHonor-1.5
Instead of BattleforHonor....
the problem is if I start a game on BFH 1.4 and have a save with someone then start a new game and there is newer version of map and I update to BFH 1.5 then my save with other person on BFH 1.4 will not work because they are named the same. WHEREAS if they were named BattleforHonor1.4 and BattleforHonor1.5 they could both exsist in the maps folder and wouldnt matter who what when and where I had a save and on what version.
Furthermore it would also be easier to just look and see what version of map you currently have when trying to see if you are up to date instead of loading UBI room and or editor and looking.
Thanks for your time.
And a side note.... when I tryed to download BFH 1.5 from TOH it was uploaded as the zip file and not the .h5m file. And NO you cannot just rename the zipfile and add .h5m extention that only means you now have a file called BattleforHonor.zip.h5m lol

u have to disable "hide extensions for known file types" from windows explorer options, in order to see the extension (using detailed view). then u CAN rename it (u can replace the old "zip" with "h5m")
you are welcome

Teacher -- thanks for the instructions..
However if they would just put the .h5m file there like they always have it would be simpler and less confusing.
