Depends on whether you want to install your maps system wide, for all user on a multiuser machine, or just for your own user.

In the latter (and probably more common) case:

Code: Select all

mkdir ~/.warzone2100/maps
mv map_pack.wz ~/.warzone2100/maps/
warzone2100 # And have fun with the new maps
If you want to install them system wide:
Find out where your Warzone is installed. I'll assume /usr/share/warzone2100 in the following.

Code: Select all

su # Get root, supply password
mkdir /usr/share/warzone2100/maps
mv map_pack.wz /usr/share/warzone2100/maps/
exit # Get back to your normal user (you don't want to run games as root, do you?)
warzone2100
Someone get this on the wiki? Thanks!
