I wanted to publish my map to the Steam Workshop, and the only knowledge I had of how to publish the .gma with gmpublisher.exe was to basically bash them together like rocks. So I used the GUI provided by @alatnet to make things easier, I entered map name, tags, icon all of it, and it got accepted, but it still didn't upload the map and this showed up in the log of the GUI:

''The requested operation requires elevation'', that most likely probably I don't really know maybe means that there's something wrong with my gmpublisher.exe, I tried to do it through the command prompt with the help of a tutorial, but instead of publishing the map, gmpublisher just popped up and closed back down like any potential friend I ever had ever.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Try running the GUI program as an administrator, if that doesn't work, then try the command prompt method as an administrator
(although neither should need admin privileges IIRC)

Neither methods seemed to work.

Although, I think I found the problem, when I try to use gmpublish through the command prompt, it says ''could not publish file (does it even exist?)" or something along those lines, before almost instantaneously closing down. I triple checked all my paths, everything, but it still doesn't recognize the files.

Make sure that the file extension is included after the file name (so for example, if my map was called testmap.gma, then the path to the file would look like C:\Path\To\Gma\testmap.gma)
