Re-creating a Chooseleveldlg

Hi Community!
I have been trying to recreate a chooseleveldlg from the full template to use as a "Create server" option so far i have done nothing to customize it at all. All i have done is try to copy over the correct commands and still change those who cant be the same as
"ChooseLevelWindow.previewSelected(ChooseLevelWindow->SmallPreviews->SmallPreview0);"
to the correct name in the places needed, however so far im coming up dry, the buttons work fine aka the host button/start server button but once pressed the start server button goes to the loading screen but does not load. Another problem is that the preview picture does not change when pressing another map button nor does the description.
Anyway could have missed something important? Since its in the GUI menu the console is giving me no clue to where the problem lays.
PS: so far all work have been done in the GUI editor.

Gamecore.cs quit routines are supposed to override the functions (somewhere) inside core folder ... but this seems to fail when the server disconnects, and the core version overrides the functions in gamecore.cs instead.
I've heard a successful solution is combine the gamecore.cs functions in the ones in the core folder ... though I've never done this myself.

If the combining those is that fix is there any thread i can read up on before mutilating those files?

Which ain't terribly helpful.
No fix as of yet, and helpful thread - just a comment stating what I wrote above.
The gamecore.cs and core functions have the same names (which is why they write over each other) so "theoretically" it's just a case of merging them together in core ...
or call the gamecore functions from core ...
or you could do what everyone else has and ignore it ...

And the answer is "nope". Which ain't terribly helpful.
