In order to run your own maps you have to do more steps.

1.upload your files into folder:
example:
J:\GAMES\Steam\steamapps\common\Homeworld\HomeworldRM\Data\leveldata\multiplayer\deathmatchHWC\allianceforglory.level

If folders does not exist then create them.

2.open and add new entry into file:
J:\GAMES\Steam\steamapps\common\Homeworld\HomeworldRM\Data\leveldata\multiplayer\deathmatchHWC.levels

example:
{
Tags = "2p",
Name = "my new level",
Desc = "New level",
MaxPlayers = 2,
},

3. run your game with -overridebigfile parameter so the game will first load files and then big files.

Greetings,

I get a "General Failure" message every time i launch a map on Complex, the game loads and crashes just before i should control over my ships.

My deathmatchHWC file looks like this:

Root = "DATA:\\LevelData\\Multiplayer\\deathmatchHWC"

Tags = "deathmatchHWC"

ExtFilter = "deathmatchHWC"

LevelList = {
{
Tags = "2p",
Name = "NAME",
Desc = "NAME",
MaxPlayers = 2,
},
}

Any help is appreciated

It can crash because of the content in your *.level file.
If you can start loading the level. It means you this posted code is OK.
It used only for filtering maps in skirmish menu.
