I made a few maps. They aren't very good, but I'd like to upload them somewhere. Where could I upload them?
Is it better to include all maps as one pack, or separately? I've seen both done.

Try Fileplanet, for example. Itīs the ultimate source for files (as the name says images/icons/smile.gif ), the only disadvantage is that sometimes itīs really crowded.
I think if you want to release your maps and they are all based on a theme (e.g. a Deathmatch-Pack, a single-player episode with additional art) then it would be a good idea to release them as a package.

Part of what zilla said, but upload to this place. (http://ftp.sunet.se/pub/games/PC/3drealms/duke3d/maps/) images/icons/grin.gif

Fileplanet Sucks images/icons/mad.gif

Right. It once had good ambitions, but since they introduced this personal server crap I took distance to it. Donīt mess up. Ahh, I wish Dukeworld.com would come back alive...
excuse my thoughts.

http://www.planetduke.com/kef/ is a site called 'we store your crap'. Kef hangs out mostly at Total Conversions
http://www.totalconversions.com/

send word to him, you got new maps.

Also there is not rule saying you can't ask the people at sunset to upload your maps. Just e-mail them. The worst thing is they say no.

Thanks for the advice. I've made a few deathmatch maps, and a single player map. They don't really fit a them except the fact that they're all city maps, so I'll keep them separate.

But, on my computer, I can't download anything from Fileplanet. I mean, the download wouldn't start!

The site was obviously created to preserve the files at DW before it shut down.

Still doesn't change the fact that the newest file is almost 18 months old... If they wanted to post other usermaps, they would be doing so.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Yeah send them to me, I will probably not review them since well:
1. I only review the best maps
2. That site will probably close soon images/icons/smile.gif

But of course I can upload the maps for you so everyone can download them, no prob.
