I don't quite understand what you mean by "I can´t see any files in the mission map".

If you can find it and play it then the .mis and tsr are there, otherwise you would not be able to play it.

The .tga file is NOT part of the mission and will not be there unless you put it there. Then under "Language Localization/mission briefing" is where you use it. You can look at some stock mission to see the format for including it and the size the .tga should be.

If you are trying to reload the mission into the mission editor, there is a dropdown box for "files of type" to select either American missions 'mis' or German missions 'misge' so you have to select the correct one. And it will only show the .mis file, even though the .tsr is there. To see them both select "all files".
But if it is not that then I don't really know where you can't see the files.

So if you could be a little bit more specific on what you mean, we can help you with this.

In the folder should be
SM12 Tanker Convoy.mis
SM12 Tanker Convoy.tsr

As you seem to already know, the .mis and .tsr have to have the "exact' same name as the Folder, but the .tga does not have to have the same name.

"SM12 Tanker Convoy" and what you show here as "Tanker Convoy" are NOT the same. Are you sure you are looking in the right folder. If you can play it, it must be there. If your first post is correct you should be looking in a folder called "SM12 Tanker Convoy".

I created a new mission "Tanker convoy" without SM12

Check the main mission folder, not the subfolders. I know that sometimes i have found the files there instead of in the subfolder.

Well, the simple way would be a "search" to find out where they are. They must be there or you couldn't play it.
Search for "Tanker Convoy.mis and Tanker Convoy.tsr.

Did you search the entire drive. If you are playing it, it must be there somewhere. Or you made a mistake in naming it, so it doesn't show on the search. Unless somehow it got set to "hidden".
