  • What are you attempting to achieve? (Keep it simple and clear)

I’m attempting to set an already made “local-file” place as a place for my main game.

  • What is the issue? (Keep it simple and clear - Include screenshots/videos/GIFs if possible)

I am unable to attach my place to the main game. Upon publishing, Roblox website marks my new place as a start place for a new game. Similar to this issue.

  • What solutions have you tried so far? (Have you searched for solutions through the Roblox Wiki yet?)

I put a great deal of work into creating 3 places so far. The first was published and set as the main game. I published the 2nd and am unable to set it as a place for my main game. I did this following the article on Multi-Place-Games. This was the only information I could find at the time. According to the forum topic I mentioned above, the only way to create places for a main game is through the game explorer. The explorer will not allow me the option of importing my already made places that are local-files. Please don’t tell me that I spent hours making those places for nothing. There must be a way to use them.

Thanks for your help and suggestions.

How to upload an already made place into a place that is not a starting place?

Open your game’s main place in Roblox Studio, open Game Explorer, right-click “Places,” and click “Add new place.” Then open your place file and publish it over the place you created.

Thank you!
