If you are talking about dungeons you have or about to download, put them in the modules folder in the rtc main folder.

Also, a file must end in ".rtc" (as well as being in the Modules folder as Copperman said) in order to be included in the menu. If it's a dungeon of your own you want to add in this way, you first have to get it to compile with no Critical Errors.

And finally, the .rtc file will show up in tyhe list with the name assigned to it by the editor in the general info, NOT it's file name - so if you, for example, modified the dm original dungoen, you would have two new dm original dungeons even tough the .rtc file has a different name
Also, sub folders in the module folder show up, as with the set of 'example' dungeons

Very old RTC files won't show up in the module list if they are not compatible with the version of the game you're using.
What RTC file did you download?

Old dungeons should be compatible with the latest version, but sometimes not
The drawback of designing for an engine under development
If a dingeon does nto run correctly, then download the old versions from the site too - just type in the old file names instead of downloading the new one
