if you get a .zip when you download a map, then change the extension to .gck. (in this zip file, there are the TGA, GTI, GMM and BIN files you got)
how do i change the extension ?

I'll use your map as an example :

It doesn't have .zip in the name its just MvM - SheildTraining - Medium no .zip so i can't change anything

that won't work, it'll make the actual filename MvM - SheildTraining - Medium.gck.zip.
You'll have to turn off hidden extensions

Or you could just open it with GiantsEdit and save it as .gck

open the explorer, then in the tools menu, select folder settings, then display, and find the hidden extension checkbox.

Hey since you guys are helping out with windows settings can you help me? When I want to make a new file like a zip folder or text document, I right click, go to new, and it's usually there, but now there's no option in the ''new'' except a regular folder and a short cut.
