Hey guys, I'm trying to upload my map to the site, but when I click on "Game Server Map Upload", it brings me to a page where it says that I don't have sufficient privileges to get to the page. It suggests that my account may have been deactivated, or that it may not be active yet. I know this isn't true, because I can post and reply, obviously as you can see. Anyone know why this is happening?

Hey 3DRyan,

Sorry about that. The 'Game Server Map Upload' is a tool that allows you to upload your custom map to our game server. This allows you to test your map in a real game server environment, instead of your machine.

Unfortunately, doing this is kind of risky, so we only allow this for users who donate, OR have 500 useful posts.

If you want to just upload your map to the website , please use our download section here:

Sounds like you're trying to upload to the playable server, rather than to the website.

If you just want to upload it to the site, go to Forums, then in the Download section, click Upload Your Custom Stuff. Its the last link in the Download section.

Ah, I see. How much would I need to donate?

Thanks for the quick response!
