Not too hard, but your going to have to archive them first. If you know how to create a zip or 7z archive skip to the next post.
Winzip is one of the most common, but 7z is supported and free to download, so I'll run through that first.
7z INSTRUCTIONS
Download and Install 7 zip
http://www.7-zip.org/
After you have that installed navigate to wherever you have your map files, probably
My Documents/A&A/data/Maps
Right click on the files you want to archive and select Add to archive....
Ignore all the fancy settings and name your file what-ever-you-want.7z
no weird characters, only letters, numbers, and _-
Click OK and your new archive should be in the same folder as your original files, and ready for upload, and can skip to the next post...
WINZIP Instructions
Archiving in Winzip works pretty much the same..
navigate to wherever you have your map files, probably
My Documents/A&A/data/Maps
Right click on the files you want to archive and select Add to Zip file....
Ignore all the fancy settings and click New... name your file what-ever-you-want.zip
no weird characters, only letters, numbers, and _-
winzip give you the option to browse where to save the archive, so put it where you can find it, and your ready for upload... skip to the next post... |

Ok, now you have your archive ready to upload.... options for attaching files are only available on the new topic or post reply pages.. (not available on the quick reply at the bottom of forum threads)
Fill out the post as normal, if it's a new topic include a title or uploading may fail
Down the page you'll see the file attachment area, you can enter an addition file info if you want but not necessary.. the important part is click browse
and navigate to your archived map file and click open
when you've done that you can click add attachment to attach the file. Just click it once and depending on the size of the file and your connection speed it may take a few moments. Just wait for it to do it's thing and you should be able to see the attachment(s) added when the page reloads.
I'm pretty sure you can just hit submit or preview without hitting add attachment first, as long as you have browsed for your file.. But to make sure it works before you post use above method.
Thanks for taking the time to post and share your work! I'm sure others will enjoy it! |

optional.. you can also use the same method for attaching screenshots of your map, it will let you attach multiple files per post. |
