Hello!
The random map for Alaska sounds really cool, and I would love to play it. The period of exploration of Alaska is a romantic one.
Unfortunately I can't get the map to appear in my list of maps in the game, even after I have installed it. Part of the problem could be that I downloaded the game online through a company called STEAM that Microsoft sells some of its games through.

The instructions for the map say to Copy the "alaska.ddt" file to your "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Age of Empires III\art\ui\random_map" folder.
I don't have a folder like that on my computer. However, the closest thing I have is an extension saying:
C:\Program Files(x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Age of Empires III\bin\art\ui\random_map
that has .ddt files from all the other maps already in that folder. But copying the file to that location did not make the map appear in my list of maps inside the game. What do you think?
