Lots of servers don't work on my tron!

[Blazehex22]

Hey guys. For some messed up reason, the server, "ULTIMATE FASTTRACK 1v1" doesn't work for me. Neither do ANY 1v1's, CTF's, or Racing Servers. For the Ultimate Fasttrack 1v1 server, I tried making folders in the resource folder for Armagetron Advanced and placed the cage match coding in there, but it still refused to work. I would very much appreciate it if someone could help me fix these problems about the servers. (This post is also in strategy, but I posted it there by accident )

What do you mean when you say it doesn't work, do you get an error message or something?

[Blazehex22]

It says Map Load Faliure.

I've had this problem before but only with one server.
Go to C:\Users\name\AppData\Roaming\Armagetron\resource\automatic (or wherever it's located for you) and delete the .dtd files for all the maps that don't work, when you re-enter the server it will download them again and your problem should be fixed.
Actually, if I were you, instead of going through them all, I'd just delete all the map folders, they download when you enter servers anyway.

*bump*

The server in question (>>> FASTTRACK ULTIMATE 1v1 <<<) is not showing up on the server list.
It should be showing up, the settings are what they should be. In fact, the server was being shown before the 17th just fine (since then it hasn't).

Custom connecting to the server still works.

Is this a master server problem?

[ConVicT]

Doesn't show up here either.

[Blazehex22]

So I just delete all the servers, and the next time I play the servers, they will all download and work again?

[takburger]

yes.

The minimum number of characters you need to enter is 5.

[Blazehex22]

Sorry. I'm a nab at this. What exactly do you mean by, "The minimum number of characters you need to enter is 5."?

[Cadillac_]

That doesn't concern you, that's just tak being a nab.
He just wrote that to avoid the minimum character requirement for posts on the forums

[Blazehex22]

So all I do is delete all the maps?

[ConVicT]

Yes, delete all the map folders, and report back and tell us if it worked or not.

[Blazehex22]

So, when I'm done deleting things, the automatic folder should be empty?

[ConVicT]

Yes, and then when you enter servers, the maps will re-download.
The game didn't come with any of those, your computer automatically downloaded them in the first place, and idk, maybe they somehow where interrupted and now you have messed up .dtd or something.
That was my problem, It's worth a shot since nobody else seems to have any answers for you

Hey guys. I just deleted all the folders, and tried going on the servers that previously didn't work,( CTF's, Racing servers, and 1v1's), but it still said map load failure and then it terminated my connection. I guess it's back to square one now.
