Ok So I have dowloaded these map paks I don't know how many times lol. There are in my main, mainta, and the maint. I have tried all three ways and they still don't work. I want to be able to play my favorite map......Medal Gods Of Domination. But as of right now I can't. When I download the map paks it ask to save or run, i run cause thats what I was taught. Then what? If Anyone could help me please it would be much appreciated.

Are you useing breakthrough or Spearhead ? some downloads go to the Moh/main and some to spearhead's moh/mainTA
- if you are useing breakthrough then the files that go to mainTA - should be moved to mainTT or put everything in main - either should work.
remember - you need to execute the file to instal the paks in moh. if that is not working - let us know. Also - many of the map paks are available in zip format - but you need to extract them into the right folder.
The execute file will will ask if the intended directory is correct and you can redirect the download to any file you choose.
Map Paks!

well - let's start with metal gods. we will deal with Domination after metal gods is working for you.
first off - I have to check and see if they are on the server.
if so - check your mohaa/main for this
zzz_PKM_Metal_Gods.pk3
if it is there - check your console for errors when you are kicked from the map.
if not - run the instal to a folder on your desktop (that way you know where it is) now drag it into your main
report back.

ok - once you download the map pak (lets say to your desktop). you need to run the execute to install it to your game.

Sounds to me like she's downloading the zip files instead of the executables, thats why its asking what program to use. I had problems with the zips too, mainly cause i'm lazy. The executables work great for me but sometimes they need to be installed twice, even though they show as being there.
