This is not where you ask about that. Go to the help/problems/issues forum.

I tried walking him through on planet mofo, but for some reason the "start server" page in the client won't let you choose certain maps. Can anyone explain why?
Optimism is just a milder alternative to denial.

The maps must be in your saved worlds directory.
Just move them there, and they should show up.

you cant go to start server at the bottom of bzflag if you want to put your map on there. usually you use the "run" command. whish is the path to your map and bzfs (they need to be in same folder or destenation) then you type: bzfs -world "[ur map].bzw" [then your setting for your servers]
just an example, mine is:
cd\program files\bzflag2.0.1b2
bzfs -world "trees.bzw" -j -ms 3 -fb -sb -c -mp 0,5,5,5,5,5
Need bzflag help? Try looking here: http://www.freewebs.com/bznightmare/map ... aghelp.htm
