I have a problem... ..
In almost every map I have this same problem, but now I'm talking about TFV-mappack. I have downloaded and extracted the files to C/Program Files/Steam/Steammaps/atsu/portal/portal/maps
In the game at the bonus maps and load bonus maps (or whatever it is in english) I cannot load it, becasue is shows me a folder (The Flash Version Mappack as I named it) and there are the 4 files. I have no place to load the maps and I cannot load the map from the console (map mapname). Hwo can I get it work? .
.

I have the same problem in most custom maps, I have got only PKM4 and some other maps to work.

Sorry a bit messy explain and bad english.

No, the achievements won't be deleted. I believe that they are saved on Steam

its also possible that you are not infact supposed to install to the "maps" directory, but to the directory above that (usually C:\program files\steam\steamapps\USERNAME\portal\portal) because alot of mappers have more than JUST the map files (.bsp) and therefore need to disperse their files into more than JUST the maps directory.
