mp_cubicles.rar is around 4.6 MBytes, so the size is right.

Did you unpack the RAR file with a tool like WinRAR? Normally what I do when grabbing a new map is to download it to my desktop, unpack the RAR or ZIP file to a folder on my desktop, check out the contents of the unpacked folder, and then move it to the Levels folder in my Far Cry installation.

In your case, you should end up with a folder called mp_cubicles, the location should be C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Crytek\Far Cry\Levels\mp_cubicles\. Inside that folder should be a few files, of most importance is the level.pak file. What you'll want to see is C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Crytek\Far Cry\Levels\mp_cubicles\level.pak. If you have the map folder installed correctly, it will load.

You can always test out that you have it correctly by starting your own multiplayer LAN game and trying to select the map you've installed. If the map does not show up, something is wrong.

You need to use a program like WinRAR to unpack the RAR file. RAR is a format similar to ZIP.

Here's the folder structure...



If the "mods" folder isn't there... I'd just make one! Demonic

No, its part of the installation.

If you did a default install it will be here:
c:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Crytek\Far Cry\

As shown here:


Do you see the other folders in the pic?

I installed the american map pack from slugworths website for the Australian Internode server but when I join the server it says somthing like "error unable to load level data" I also tried hosting my own server to check that the maps are installed but I couldn't choose any of the am_* maps. There was only 'mp_surf, mp_monkeybay, mp_monkeyby_n' and the rest. Can anyone please help me? I've literally been trying days on end to get multiplayer working. P.S anyone have tips to get a better ping? We've got two internet connections. An ADSL and a Wireless one (They are different). Thanks CuZtds_Lst_Stnd for your previous help.
