I am running the latest patch of Dominions 2 (2.16) on Gentoo Linux. The game has two directories one at ~/dominions2 and one at /opt/dominions2. The first one is used to store pretenders, created games, etc. It also has the maps and mods sub-directories. The second one holds the game data and executables.

The mods I have placed in ~/dominions2/mods are recognized by the game and can be loaded. However, the maps I place in ~/dominions2/maps are _not_ picked up by the game. I have to place them in /opt/dominions2/maps in order for the game to load them.

I am not sure if this has been discussed here before; a quick search returned nothing relevant and I am too bored to go through 74 pages of posts. So, I apologize in advance if this is a known issue.
