Operation Brainfreeze UE v1.4

Description
This map is a special mission in which 4 human players - or just you and 3 AI buddies - face an unusual challenge. First you start with a limited number of units and have to battle through hordes of enemies waiting for you. You will need all your wits to get through! (Since AI players are too dumb for this stage they will hand over their units to the first human player.)
After you managed to beat this stage the final enemy is revealed, and you (and your buddies) have a normal battle including regular base building against them. However the enemies have a lot of extra base defenses up and start with several strong extra units, so it won't be a walk in the park!
Setup tips: You need 5 players in total, 4 including you are your team, the 5th is your enemy. Make sure to place an AI player in bottom right (enemy) spot so you won't accidently be there. You don't need to setup teams, it will auto team the 4 players in top left. Difficulty can be set differently for the 2 stages. The units you start with in stage 1 are set ingame after starting the map. The difficulty of bottom right player is used for stage 2.
This map is also available as Uprising version with additional Uprising units placed in all tiers and the finally enemy area.
This map was originally created by FupDup and edited and enhanced by ar-558.
The websites mentioned ingame do not exist anymore since this map is 15 years old.

Me and my friend tried this but he still can't ready up. Same issue if he hosts, I get a message saying I don't have the map and it's workshop ID number. This applies to all the workshop maps we've tried

The map itself is made for multiplayer. I think the issue you encounter is a bug in the workshop support of the game. You can copy the map and all other maps you want to play in MP to the regular old MP map folder to fix this.
The workshop maps for RA3 are in here: C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\17480\ (assuming you installed Steam in C:\Program Files). Sub folders there are the workshop items. The Brainfreeze map is 3446209067.
The regular old map folder is here: C:\Users\<your windows user name>\AppData\Roaming\Red Alert 3\Maps
Copy the Brainfreeze map folder from workshop location to the 2nd path and it should be a normal MP map. The bugs the game has with it will switch from "You dont have the map" to not displaying its name in your map list :-)
We told the developers about all the new issues there are since workshop support was added, but I dont know if they are working on it.

I can't get this map to function with my friend online. I can play solo but my friend can't ready up for me to start the map when playing online in a lobby. We're both subscribed to the map too

There is no button in the client sady. I used this guide to find out how to use a command line version of Steam and used it to update the map: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3435449860
