  This is going to make me sound like a complete idiot but,
  
  How do you get TCs working with SWP and PlayWang?

  Re: Exteremely Noobish Question

  You need all TC's in a folder called GAMES, your Single Player Maps in a Folder
  called MAPS, and multiplayer Maps in a folder called MAPSWB.

  I've just done that. But now I have another problem.
  
  When I run with SWP, it doesn't recognize the TCs at all. When i run with PlayWang, it recognizes the TCs, but it doesn't run them.

  Can you run the Tc from the SWP startup, under addons?
  Do you have the Registered Version or Shareware of
  SW.grp in your folder?
  Post your SWP.log file.
  Hi-lite TC and click Play Conversion (bottom left) not Play SW.

  -gRampage_v42.zip

  That is your problem.
  Rampage_v42.zip is the complete release zip file, you need to unzip the contents into your 'Games' folder then from the Startmenu under addons select Rampage.grp ;)
