oh i think i get your problem, this happened with me! Are you using internet explorer? If you are, use mozilla for the downloads.

No, I dont think you place these on the server, if I downloaded on internet explorer, chances are it would be an RAR file with the folders in it. With mozilla, it directly downloads the iwd. If you are using internet explorer though:

1) Download and install winzip

2) drag a box round all the folders.

3) right click and select winzip.

4) Click add to zip file

5) Where it says add to archive, change the last bit of the name to mapname.iwd

No, don't use winzip for that. You need winrar.

Don't ask me.

Firefox is much saver then the crappy IE, I highly suggest to switch.
