[HELP PLS] Map editor problems

Hello. I have a big issue that I'd love to get solved, because playing my custom maps ingame would be really fun, and that was one of the main reasons I even bought the game.
The problem is: Whenever I create a map the map itself won't show up between the other maps, but it will show up on the workshop menu and I can upload it and even subscirbe to it, it still doesn't changes the fact that it won't show up on the games map selection. Also I did everything step by step as this guide shows: http://modding.dawnofwar.com/multiplayer-scenario-tutorial
so I don't know what the problem is. Also before and after I upload my map it doesn't have any size, its 0, while other workshop maps that actually work and show up they do.
If you guys could help me I would really appriciate it, cos this thing makes me really mad, that I can't solve this out. Also on the original dow 3 forums and didn't get ♥♥♥♥♥ for help, so this is my last resolt, to get some sort of clue or answer to my problem.

Open your maps option file and add a line for each game mode.
example

minimap_size =
{
768,
768,
}
uses_ice = false
visible_in_lobby = true
permitted_game_mode_types =
{
"PowerCore!",
"annihilation",
"annihilation_with_turrets",
"victory_point",
}
scenario_type = 1

This is the text in my map's file, not sure if I put all the other game modes in it's gonna show up or change something but I'm gonna check and answer back after I tested it.

Cool I have a new problem. Now, because it didn't work on my map, that already exist I tried to make a new one. The new problem is that it won't even generate the map which is the first step of the whole thing. I create the folder for the map in the modssource/scenarios and after saving it, it won't show up and it doesn't generate anything, like I didn't do nothing. After doing the exact same thing again it says "Could not initialize remaining engine features" than it quits. I don't know what the ♥♥♥♥ happened because I made at least 5 maps before, trying to solve the problem that it won't show up but now I can't even do the first ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ step of the whole thing. I promise I'm not retarded cos I did this before and it generated it, I don't know what the ♥♥♥♥ is going on now. Also the world builder says for some reason that it's in "offline_mode" whatever the ♥♥♥♥ it means, I have no idea how to get rid of that. Here is the proof: https://imgur.com/a/OGg4YRj
