TUTORIAL ON HOW TO ADD MISSING MAPS
Hopefully this will stop unneeded topics on missing maps!
if by any chance you enter one of our servers and find that you have a missing map and get disconnected, don't fear as this is easily remedied.
firstly, find the exact name of the map that's missing and either search on Google or [FPSB] (www.fpsbanana.com/maps)
when you download a map, it's compacted together with Winrar, if you don't have Winrar you cant open the file. Download Winrar for free here (http://www.download.com/WinRAR/3000-2250_4-10007677.html?tag=contentAux;cloud)
once you have found the offending map simply extract the .BSP file to:
C: --> Program Files --> Steam --> Steamapps --> (your steam name) --> Counter-Strike: Source --> cstrike --> Maps.
Step By Step Process
for instance if your trying to get on to the Escape server to play on this map called zm_atix_helicopter, your friend says the map is real good but every time you try to play on it it says "missing map disconnecting".
once you've downloaded the map from fpsbanana.com, using Winrar extract either to your desktop or right click on the .bsp file in Winrar and extract to the correct folder, both ways work fine and which ever suits you best.
I'm going to skip the actual downloading from fpsb and go straight into placing it in the right folder as that seems to be where most of the confusion is coming from.
1. Once your on your C: drive, click on Program Files then Steam

Easy as pie..right?
