0 FunkyFr3sh Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Don't really have a solution for your problem yet, but I added another workaround for you so you can continue playing until the problem is fixed. Type this in the game lobby and then restart it: /install doug2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 dougwg Posted May 18, 2019 Author Share Posted May 18, 2019 Thank you sir. fyi: still can't DL maps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 FunkyFr3sh Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Yeah the map download issue is probably the same as the one from the updater. I don't really know what it's about though since you're the only one having that issue... You can also workaround the map problem by downloading the maps manually from here http://mapdb.cncnet.org/search.php?game=ra&age=0&search=gold rush You can replace the "gold rush" at the end of the url with something else to search for a specific map, download the .zip and extract it into your game folder.
