Hai guys. So I have been trying to install maps for some time now. I really want to go to all of the events that are happening. But the problem is is that whenever I try to there are no portals to go through. I have run through every stone circle, downloaded Bawful's Map Portal Enhancer thing, and tried multiple maps (including the ones released for official evens). No portals. If anyone knows what is happening please tell me. Thanks :)
Somehow, I have come back from the dead lol!

Have you made sure that all of the files go into their designated places? A map would not show up if all or some of it's files
aren't in the "exports" folder.

As Morqque said, make sure to put all the files in the right spots!
In map downloads, there's usually a README file that shows you where to put all the files! Let me know if any of this helps.

Not to repeat everything stated above by Morqque and Calvary, but there are helpful YouTube videos that go step-by-step on how to download your map such as this one.
A lot of players' maps are in a .zip or .rar file when you download them. Make sure you're extracting/unzipping the folders before putting them into your game. It's also important to make sure the .fhm file is in exports as well if you feel that the other steps have been completed.

if you put the fhm file somewhere else then the exports folder, then you need to put it there ONLY or it wont work

I can already assume you restarted your game after downloading. Do you mind sending me a screenshot of your Exports folder so I can see whats in there?

Just wanna add. You're looking for the portals in Cape of Distant world's along the edges of the straight line further in the map, yeah?

You need to bring the files out of the folders and into exports.
