I noticed that i was missing the map files supposidly as well. Im not completely sure what it would do for me while inside the emulator its self. Although with FQAdmin 2.2 under the preferences button at the bottom you can set the diretory it looks in for the map files, and once that is set you can use the maps in the FQAdmin program. If im way off and this wasnt what you were refering to just ignore my rambelings
edited to clear up some things
