Map won't update
« on: December 21, 2002, 01:17:32 PM »
Arrrrggggggh!

It's taking literally hours to download the !@#$% map updates. Then, when the servers finally do cough, sputter and drip out enough kilobytes to finally complete the download, I'm immediately kicked backed to the theaters login screen. When I try to log in again, I get the !@#$%^& dowload screen again and the process starts all over. I downloaded the SFMA map twice last night and Mindnao once today. Both times this happened to me (I did manage to download the Baltic map after two tries last night, but then, proving servers have a sense of humor, I logged on just long enough to find out the map was being reset.)
Please send answers and blood pressure medication.

I got the thing to work by changing the properties on my terrain files from read only to archive (a hint from Mathman). Apparently this changed when I backed up the files on CD. (Who knew?)
I'd tried looking on the download page for Mindnao and the others, but while there are lots of terrains there, I couldn't find updates of those two or the SFMA. Maybe I'm overlooking something?
