How do I play a downloaded map?

[tonzo]

Stupid question time - I have downloaded some maps from the Terminal and have saved the resulting *.gmc files into the "maps" folder of the "Railroad Tycoon 3" folder on my drive. I can open these files through the map editor of RR3 however they do not come up as a "new scenario". 

How do I play these maps? Do I in fact need to stick them in some other directory for the scenario to 'notice' them, or is there a procedure within the map editor to 'finalise' the map here to allow them to become scenarios?

Apologies for my idiocy ...

If the editor can open the maps they should open as a new map.

I would open the maps in the editor and re-save them with a new name.  (Add an X to the name and save)

Better yet, add an exclamation mark ( ! ) to the name at the beginning. That way it will show up at the top of the map list.  ;)

Thanks! yes it works now!
