Get a better net connection or move nearer to the server.

put them in your /tremulous/base folder and rename them from .zip to .pk3 (turn on "show hidden file extentions", just don't ask me how  :roll: )

If you use Linux and can not find the folder, you better get your ass back to windows.
One just does NOT install any programm w/o knowing what goes where!

It would be awesome if someone can tell me how to find the folder in LINUX. :cry:

It'd be awesome if you had the slightest clue where ANY user-specific configuration is stored on any UNIX.

Here's a hint: it's hidden.

And if you can't figure out where your config files are, you really should not be using linux. Either that or read some guides and learn how linux works.
