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

Any maps not in the MG repo?  Email me or come to irc.freenode.net/#mg.

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: )

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


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

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'd be awesome if you had the slightest clue where ANY user-specific configuration is stored on any UNIX.
If my answer to your problem doesn't seem helpful, it means I won't help you until you show some effort to fix your problem yourself!

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.
