Noob. *sigh* I need tiny bit of help.

It's funny how much some of you are able to do with this modding thing and I can't even manage the basics.

My problem is simple, but I can't find an answer. (And, no, I didn't look at Kael's guide. I thought it would just be easier to ask here.) I am using Sid Meier's Civilization V SDK. I click on "WorldBuilder Map/Scenario builder." I then made a simple 20x20 map, added 6 civs, plopping down one city for each, renaming each Civ and each starting city. I changed the options to one-city challenge, and limited the turns to 100. That's it. Simple, right?

Now when I load Civ V, I can load my new creation as a map but not as a scenario. How do I load it as a scenario with my custom-named Civs etc?

Because the tutorials subforum is only for tutorials .

Easier for you, maybe, but you're now taking up OUR time to answer your questions. The tutorials exist so that people don't ask the exact same questions over and over again, which'd clog up this board. Besides, the tutorial guides aren't just for answering single questions, they're about learning the entire modding process. Read through those, and you'll know enough that you won't get stuck on the really trivial steps.
(Granted, there are two significant changes that came after Kael's guide was written, and so we get tons of questions whose answers are "set the VFS to True" and "duplicate text keys conflict now". We should really update that thing.)

I'm not taking up anyone's time who does not choose to have their time taken up. This is a forum where people come to discuss, ask questions, etc. I've answered newbie questions in other forums (forums where I actually know something about the topic =) because I can chose to read/not read any discussion I choose. I worded my topic very obviously so that people like yourself who dislike newb questions, could avoid the topic.

I don't want to download a huge guide to modding when I need one very simple answer that someone could very easily provide for me. I don't think that's at all unreasonable or I would not have asked here.

So for any of you still reading who are feeling helpful - why is it that I cannot load my "scenario"? If there is no simple answer, then direct me to Kael's guide, but all I want to do is load the scenario I build in the scneario/map builder. I thought it would be automatic since I used the scenario buttons on the program...

So there's no "Load Scenario" underneath the map after you've selected it? Try to provide a screenshot.
