Newbie question (but oddly couldn't find the answe), I downloaded a couple of maps from the MAPS section (.SC2Map) and now I want to play them in SC2 single player with AI - but I can't seem to figure out how ...
I am unsure where to place the files, when in the game if I go to VERSUS A.I I always have "no content", how do I get the maps downloaded to appear in the list so I can play them?
Maybe someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but as far as I know the best way to play melee maps that you've downloaded against AI is to publish them to battle.net as Private with the editor then create a custom game on that map. The other option is trying to find them on battle.net in the custom games list, as the author may have possibly published it already.
If they haven't published it and you don't want to (or know how) you could ask them to publish it for you.
Edit: I should mention that if you know your way around the editor a little bit, you *can* play against AI offline. You need to add the number of computer players you want in Map>Player Properties, set their difficulty, and you might have to add a trigger that sets alliances (I think it defaults to enemy so if you're just doing 1v1 you might be able to skip that).
That may not get you AI if it's an actual melee map. Then again maybe that wasn't what the OP was about. Sorry if I unnecessarily confused anyone anyway.

Drag and drop the map file onto you StarCraft II.exe icon.
