RE: help how to install maps - kammy - 03-11-2013
what do you mean by this?
do you mean installing the maps download from server?
In any case go to your xonotic folder
then data/maps
after that add the desired maps to that folder if you want your dlcache (downloaded maps). find the dl cache and copy the files to /xonotic/data. *not /maps*
EDIT: don't need to create /maps directory my bad

Don't create data/maps, that's not needed.
kammy, can you edit your post?
EDIT: Alex, if you don't know where your personal data directory is (it's /home/alex/.xonotic/data in linux), just start Xonotic, press shift escape, and in the console that opens type this: which config.cfg
That will tell you where config.cfg is stored, and that's your personal data directory where you should put pk3 files.

I put the maps in the folder but do not see in the map list in game
RE: help how to install maps - kammy - 03-11-2013
Try typing "maps" in console... that will display a list of the currently installed maps.
From there type "map x"; x being the name of the map you want to play.
This will start a local game on your pc. Starting a server is different if that's what you're interested in.
RE: help how to install maps - Mr. Bougo - 03-11-2013
What are the map's filenames and where exactly did you put them?
EDIT: Kammy, "chmap" is preferred, because it loads more than just the .bsp file (takes mapinfos into account etc). Nevermind, it should be about the same. Don't run 'map' on a server though, it disconnects clients.
