Currently, this site supports watch files, input files and scripts. However, for some games, I end up having to make a bunch of notes, maps, spreadsheets, and the like. I'm aware some users here used to use google code to host these, but since that's gone, what's a good replacement for hosting TAS project related files?

I'm currently using github for the same purpose as googlecode. Bonus points for github also supporting subversion, so if your previous workflow included using that, you should be able get by without much difficulty adapting. I'm not sure if github actually is very keen on hosting non-programming related projects, but it's working for me. I should probably look up the TOS at some point.

Google Drive / Google Docs is great if you want to host spreedsheets, documents, and some random files. Use the site's user files if you need to store files the site allows you (ask us to enable certain emulator related formats if not currently allowed). Other material belongs on our Game Resources. Or if you want to document your own notes for making a particular TAS, you can store such information on a personal user page on our wiki. If you don't have one, feel free to ask. Game maps and addresses can be stored on the site as well. Check out the Jetpack or Dune II Game Resources page to see our maps.

I was not aware of that.
