1. Make a folder on your desktop, name it “server maps” or whatever. Create another folder in that folder and name it the map name is. (i.e.: de_dust_cz) Unzip the map file to that named folder.

2. Now go to however you upload files to your server.(FTP, file transfer): Open the cstrike or czero folder depending on what game you are installing to. In it should have the following folders listed, if it does not have one in the server then create them.

gfx

maps

models

overviews

sound

sprites

3. Now open the 1st folder in your custom maps folder on your desktop, it should have the same list as stated above. If it doesn’t, then that map does not require it. Do not create one.

4. Go back to your server folders, the folder names should match each other from your desktop and your server:

desktop_________________server

gfx_________________gfx

maps_______________maps

models_____________models

overviews___________overviews

sounds_____________sound

sprites_____________sprites

5. All .wad files go into the cstrike/czero folder on your server. There is no folder for them individually. (i.e. c://hlserver/czero/tundra.wad)

6. Some folders have other folders in them on your server or in the custom map you downloaded, again if it is not in your server folders, create it, otherwise that map does not need it.

Examples:

6a. The gfx folder has a folder named env in it, which means that anything in the gfx\env folder from the custom map would go into the gfx\env folder on your server.

6b. The sound folder has a folder named ambience in it, which means that anything in the sound\ambience folder from the custom map would go into the sound\ambience folder on your server.

7. Now some folders have the map name on them. Examples: de_snowfacility has a folder named snowfacility in the sound folder. It would be uploaded as it own folder in the sound folder on your server.

8. Once you have gotten all the files uploaded where they belong on your server, restart your server or change the map. Look on HLSW to see if it is listed, if it is change it to your new map, go into your server and test it. If it does not work or times out your server, remove the map files because it is a “bad” map and won’t work.

9. Add the map new to you map lists, mapcycle.txt and maps.ini if you are using AMXMODX.
