Adding Custom Maps

Hey, i have a specific question about adding the custom map lol. so i have everything set up, or so i thought. i'm using a guide because i'm fairly new to running a server, anywho, its asking me for custom launch parameters when I try to start the server. i have no idea what i am supposed to put in there. i click on the info box, but its not really making sense to me what needs to go in there for the map i'm trying, which is Madagascar evolved. the mod folder does not have anything in it that looks like the custom launch perameters for the island, center and so on.

I need some help with this too.  I've read every example I can find in the forums as well as checking YouTube info for setting up a custom map.  I've seen several different versions for the custom parameter settings and have tried them all without success.  It remains on the loading status without ever loading.  Here is my custom launch configuration.  Please let me know if there's anything else I can try.  It's beyond frustrating at this point as I'm new to this and really tried to find my answers before posting here.  Any help is very much appreciated!

Try the parameters I listed for my server in the comment below yours.  I finally got the server to load with these after it uploaded overnight and refreshing it a few times.  Just make sure and check the info box next to your IP address to get the correct port numbers to list...they should be 3 sequential numbers for the port, queryport and RCONPort.  I hope this helps!!  I was as confused as you are....new to this and trying to muck my way thru the set up hahaha

I would love some step by step instructions with maybe screen shots for using some of the new maps that have come out.

 

If you haven't already got yours working check my question/comments below.  I finally figured mine out and got it working...only took 4 days ugh.  I hate being very lacking in computer knowledge sometimes but, I finally did it :)  Hope it helps and/or you have yours working, good luck!

If you wanna put in a ticket for the mod maps I can help with that too! The most important things to remember though are

Map = custom

Map ID = Mod id from steam workshop 

 

Launch Parameters Line needs to include 

ModMapID= (what is in map ID)
