Title: Help! I'm getting autoraped!
Post by: AN on July 08, 2001, 08:00:00 PM

And I don't like it one bit.  :(

I'm sitting here downloading the mindnao terrain for the third time.  I downloaded it once from the download page, installed it, and it worked fine for a day or two.  Then I started up AH and logged on, only to find I had to download the mindnao terrain again, this time through the autoraper.  So I sat through it, thinking that if I let the autoraper do its job, it would be happy.  (Did I ever mention before that my connection is sub-28.8, and downloading a 1.5 meg file takes a *long* while?)  That worked fine for a few more days, but now I just logged on to get a quick half-hour or so of flight in, but instead it looks like I'm going to have to spend that time downloading the freaking terrain again!

ARRRRGHHHH!!!!!!!!!

Anyone else having this problem?  Is there a way to fix it????

BTW, I forgot to mention that the mindnao.res file is sitting in my terrains directory just as pretty as you please, but AH refuses to use it.

There have now been 3 different versions of the mindinao terrain to fix various bugs.

I'd try deleting the .res file and then running the terrain executable you get from the downloads page.

If it's just an update, then no problem.

I thought I was downloading the same file every time.
