WW1 ARENA IS CRASHING
« on: July 18, 2026, 02:59:59 PM »
This may have already been posted but the WW1 Arena is crashing out.
As soon as I try to launch the "Host Lost Connection" Message comes up and the game shuts down.
Does anyone have any intel about that issue? Is it just me?

Thanks,
Luft

I'd run ping plotter and see if it's your connection route.

I just tested it.  Downloaded terrain. Arena opened for a few seconds the lost host connection.
Logged in again, with another  .res download.  Areana opened and was able to launch a plane.

Did you try a second time?

Yes, I tried launching several times today and last night but not by downloading the .res thing.
I will give that a try.
All the other arenas work fine, Just WW1

Thanks for checking!

when you start the game, select "choose terrain". Scroll down to the WWI terrain and select download. Once downloaded close out the game and start it again. Should work after that.

Thanks Fugitive!

Yeah, I should have asked how to do it.
Sounds easy! Much easier than the file slicing and dicing I had in mind.
I will give it a try. Slept early....missed out on shooting down Pops and Biggles :-)

WW1 is still crashing with a Host Connection Lost message. The other arenas work fine.
I reloaded the terrain to no avail. I might reload another .res download or the game from scratch
