Map Extensions?
 

I'm still new to Dom 2.

I've downloaded some maps from the Illwinter site. They do not appear in the window for map selection when I am starting a new game. I notice that some of my maps have different extensions in the file name (instead of .map). For example:

parganos.rar
chandrea.rar

Do you know if this is actually a map? If these are the maps -- should the extension be .map?

Thanks,
Bannon

.rar is a type of .zip file. WinRAR will extract it; I don't think Windows compression/decompression utilities detect them as such.

You can get WinRAR at www.rarlab.com

Hope this helps.

Several other programs such as tugzip and pkzip also extract .rar files, if you already have one of them.

Thanks. I've never seen that one before.
