You must find .wz maps, and not use the old, outdated .wdg maps.

I think it is explained on the wiki.

Just where did you put the map file(s) then?

Is it just one map that don't work, or all of them?

What version of warzone are you using?

Most of the time, you just stick them in the map directory, and that is pretty much it.

They need to be in the maps directory.  Check your profile location, and then in that you will see savegame directory among others, and a place for maps.
