I am sure this is the most commonly asked question of all time, but I forgot how to install downloaded maps to the game. I use to do it all the time with Red Alert 2 but I have no idea how to do it for Zero Hour.
Thank You.

Most maps consist of 2 (maybe 3) files in a folder. A .map file and a .tga file with the same name as the folder (plus a map.ini).

Copy/Move that folder to your ZH folder in your documents (for most people: 'C:\Users\[USERNAME]\Documents\Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour Data\maps')
When you start the game it should be in the unofficial maps section.

I got it, thank you. I had no idea they put the map file in documents! Do you guys have a bundle of maps or do I need to install 1 by 1?

There are bundles, if you look in the downloads section, you shouldn't have too much trouble finding them. However, downloading lots of single maps and installing them 1 by 1 doesn't actually take that long.
