Title: If you cannot get into the new arena...
Post by: Skuzzy on September 08, 2015, 09:48:02 AM
There seems to be an issue with the auto downloader for terrains in the Alpha arenas.

Here is a link to the Europe terrain you need to access the arena of the same name.  Simply download/save the terrain file (eur2015.res) into the "ah3terr" folder, where the Alpha is installed on your computer.

Thanks Skuzzy, it downloaded and I copied it to AH3terr folder, and I had no problem loading Europe Arena online.

Tracerfi, if you placed the properly named download into the correct folder, you would have gotten a prompt, asking if you wish to replace the existing file with that name.  You might want to try again and see if the above occurs.

You do not open that file.  Just put it in your ah3terr folder.
If you did it correctly, windows will tell you that there is already a file with that name.  Just replace that file with this new one.

I copied this Eur2015.res over the old one that auto downloaded.  My system still crashes seconds after the Europe terrain loads (tested offline).
