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

What do I do with the file after i download the map?

[Plague Bringer]

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: )

[shichao]

the problem is i can't find that folder D:

[holyknight]

you install it and /base thing automatically appears
try reinstalling

[sleekslacker]

put the files in C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Tremulous\base


(Assuming you use windows. You seem to be so)

[optear]

put the files in C:\Documents and Settings\SleekSlackerz\Application Data\Tremulous\base


(Assuming you use windows. You seem to be so)

wrong place, it should be:

C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Tremulous\base

What if I use Linux?

[Caveman]

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!

[shichao]

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

[next_ghost]

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

[daenyth]

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.

[sleekslacker]

geez guys at least give him the path. nice trolling here.

it's in ~/.tremulous

base folder should be under that.

[shichao]

Ok let me try it but i don't know if it would work..... :-?

[shichao]

Now I found the folder .......BUT my computer says I don't have permission to change the folder. In case you ask I am a Admin of my laptop.
