sometimes i just wanna quick battle (<1hr).

i found it though but it doesnt work, it's called ultimatepower
Normal maps can cause quick battles, too, you know. Rush, for instance.

That's because you're using Windows 98. Get a newer computer.

You're doing it incorrectly, then. Follow the instructions exactly.

It's a map format for older versions of Warzone. It won't work with any version of Warzone downloaded from this site.

what version of warzone 2100 do you have installed.

you dont install the zip. you open the zip and extract all that you find in the zip file to the maps folder.

what country are you in? ie: time zone etc....locale...

:suprised: OMG! :suprised:
Do you even know how to turn on your computer?

Kuky, calm down, calm down...
Now:
ZIP is a type of archive.
Archive is a single file that contains other files into itself.Those files are often compressed.
Compression is procedure during what special algorythm removes parts of data to make it take less space.
Extraction is procedure during what compressed files are worked on with same algorythm with what they were compressed to reconstruct parts of data that were removed during compression.

Built-in ZIP support was a feature that was added in Windows XP. FooTheYak is using Windows 98. :P
