It must work.Try restarting server and searching for map in the resources tab in your admin panel.
It's not about how hard you can hit, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving FORWARD!

you mean MTA San Andreas?

EDIT: go to D:\MTA San Andreas\server\mods\deathmatch\resources

make random folder named example "map 1"

put in "map 1" folder .map and meta file

Then of course it doesn't work,and it won't work.From where did u download it?It might be a virus or something.Btw maps are usually zipped...

Resources for server/Maps: http://community.mtasa.com/index.php?p=resources&s=list

Also if u wanna have your own server for your own clan or something and u need more maps you should try asking leaders of other servers,or simply pay them.Also try on google,you may find something.

Good luck!

How is a .map file going to be a virus :/ actually it might but noone would put it in a map of mta game :/.
You can create yourself meta file for that map jsut copy meta file from other map and change filename to be exact as .map or else it wont find it, put those 2 files together i na folder, and it should recognize it, or if you have still no idea of what I am talking about, just forget the whole server creating thing.
