You should be able to locate Xaa's Mageworld and Lands of Hyperborea via google or Siegenetwork. They're highly recommended, even though I didn't contribute much to them.

That's one option, but you can also host a game and let others join you. There was a central server on-line option, but that was shut down a while back. I have multiple machines that can play DS, so I sometimes play MP on my home LAN.

What Sharkull means is that the Utraean Pensinsula map - the built in MP one - has been re-used as the basis of two Single-player mods using different mobs etc. on the same terrain.

In principle the .dsmap tank contains the landscape, and the .dsres tank contains the actors and scripts, although that's more a convention than strict reality. These two mods essentially replace the latter only.

Just to confuse you, it's quite common to put everything in just one .dsres archive and call it a map whenever it shows up in the map selection menu. Abstraction is like that.

You can also find a lot of much simpler mods that just add a weapon or dungeon into the regular map. Follow the Siegecore link on the left for a bunch of those.

There are tutorials here and on my site (Link in my sig) that will give you an idea what you can do, what's easy, what's hard, and what's already been done.
