HW2 automatically downloads maps which you have never played before and stores them in a folder.

Unknown / new maps encountered while on multiplayer are stored in this folder:
Homeworld2\Bin\Profiles\levels

Once there you will see several maps with weird names. No, those are not viruses. Each folder contains the .level file of the map(s) you have played on but didn't have in your \leveldata folder at that moment.

Simply copy & paste the file inside such a folder to this folder:
Homeworld2\Data\leveldata\multiplayer\Deathmatch

Or, if you are on the FX mod, put them in this folder:
Homeworld2\Data\leveldata\multiplayer\deathmatcheprandom
