Download maps

Here's a set of links to different mirrors where you can download maps:

Install maps

For installing maps, look at the Readme first page.

Choosing a Map

Technically, all Spring games work with any Spring map. In practice, some maps are unplayable with certain games. For example a game where you mine resources from the ground will only work on maps where these resources are present. A game based around land combat will not be very fun on a water map.
This is why some map makers started adding prefixes to the map names, to signal what games work well with their map.
This is no official list, only a recommendation what to look out for. Generally it is best to have a look at the games webpage if a map pack is offered or even already included in the download.

Map recommendations for games with TA based economy (ie BA, XTA, NOTA)

Start Boxes via lobby chat

commands for autohosts:
!split v 20 create 2 boxes, at left and right end of map. "20" defines the size.
