You can download these maps and save them in the /maps folder (\maps for Windows users) under your Eternal Lands directory. Make sure that you make backups of all the .bmp files in that directory. If you already have any custom maps in that directory they might be replaced if the names have a correspondence (i.e. they are maps of the same name). Windows will prompt you for overwrite permission (in which case you need to think of logical file-name changes to make it work). If you work from the Linux command line, you might not have such a luxury, as your existing files will be overwritten in the default settings. Linux, afterall, does expect us to be a bit more in control of our systems, so, use your brain and make backups when installing things by hand.)

Get (almost) all the maps for Eternal Lands
Here you have a ZIP file with almost all the Eternal Lands MAPS (the ones you can see when you hit TAB inside the game).
You can download these maps and save them in the /maps folder (\maps for Windows users) under your Eternal Lands directory. Make sure that you make backups of all the .bmp files in that directory. If you already have any custom maps in that directory they might be replaced if the names have a correspondence (i.e. they are maps of the same name).
