RESOLVED - AAS Supported maps?

Post by **eggman** » 2006-04-01 02:42

Thanks for helping out with this Fritz.

In gerneal guys we should have things easier to set up with PRMM 0.3. By default it should work fine in AAS mode and the settings and configuration defaults should be set up for a good PR experience without server admins having to fiddle with anything.

W0000t

AAS Issue seems to be fixed and players are joining again

Thanks guys!

If interested filter ABR in the ingame filter option
or use direct connect to: prmm.dffclan.com

Kind regards

euhmmmmm Dalian Plant? Should that one work? because we just switched from Karkand to Daliant Plant.
Karkand worked fine but Dalian Plant suddenly again same problem?!
Restarted the server just to be sure.
I am downloading the PRMM mod again
Maybe reinstalling that would help

Gulf of Oman same problem and so on................

[irritated mode]
Last but not least I downloaded the complete mod again.
Although downloading it with a 100Mbit connection it downloaded with 100Kb/sec. I waited for the download to finish. Removed the old PR mod and reinstalled it again. Renamed the PY file and..............STILL SAME PROBLEM!
Since this is no advertisement for both my server and the PR mod I pulled my server offline!
[/irritated mode]

[desperate mode]
Can I get some personal assistance with this problem?
The Forum is OK to post stuff, but people dont want to wait days for this slow chat to come up with a solution.
[/desperate mode]

Kind regards
Flits!

Weird, we haven't had any problems with AAS. I think on Karkand 1 there was a strange glitch, but thats all i can remember.

Flits · Post by **Flits** » 2006-04-01 17:41

I received a file from eggman which I copied to the server.
Server is now running with that file!

Going connect to test it.

First map in the rotation is Gulf of Oman.
Directly after joining it says at the top left:
* AAS * Flags must be captured in correct order! * AAS *

After that...... Nothing!
No more AAS text and no flag can be captured!

mapList.append the_oasis gpm_cq 32
mapList.append Wake_Island_2007 gpm_cq 32
mapList.append strike_at_karkand gpm_cq 32
mapList.append Dalian_plant gpm_cq 32
mapList.append Daqing_oilfields gpm_cq 32
mapList.append dragon_valley gpm_cq 32
mapList.append FuShe_Pass gpm_cq 32
mapList.append Gulf_of_Oman gpm_cq 32
mapList.append kubra_dam gpm_cq 32
mapList.append Mashtuur_City gpm_cq 32
mapList.append Operation_Clean_Sweep gpm_cq 32
mapList.append sharqi_peninsula gpm_cq 32

mapList.append strike_at_karkand gpm_cq 32
mapList.append Strike_at_Karkand_2 gpm_cq 32
mapList.append Zatar_Wetlands gpm_cq 32

This was the maprotation on the server but by now the RED colored once are removed due to the AAS issue. Probably more will follow

OK well something is defintely awry here... the maps marked in red work fine with PRMM 0.254 and BF2 1.22 EXCEPT:
- Wake Island
- Gulf of Oman 32p is known to have some issues (we can't figure it out it seems to be an EA / Dice issue)

Have you edited the language support for AAS in any way?

Is it just that the AAS tips don't display (eg: the *AAS* next flag is flagname *AAS* messages)

OR

Can you actually not capture the flags?

What server version?

Are you running BF2CC or ModManager or anything else that could be related?

If you disable ABR does the problem persist?

While I understand your frustration and irritation, more information answering the exact questions being asked will help resolve the situation.

I dunno what's going on, but typically we've not seen these problems, so there is either a configuration issue, or a new bug we are not aware of.

Since there seems to be no help at this time of day i'll keep trying to solve it.
Currenlty downloading the Complete BF2 server again!

Flits · Post by **Flits** » 2006-04-01 21:26

SOLVED! After 5 days of troubleshooting!

Together with Satcom we've been working whole day to tackle this *****!
And we found the problem!

Working maplist:
mapList.append gulf_of_oman gpm_cq 32
mapList.append strike_at_karkand_2 gpm_cq 32
mapList.append daqing_oilfields gpm_cq 32

Not working maplist:
mapList.append Gulf_of_Oman gpm_cq 32
mapList.append Strike_at_Karkand_2 gpm_cq 32
mapList.append Daqing_oilfields gpm_cq 32

Did you see the difference?
Neither did we when we looked at them seperatly
Now copy pasting both first maps underneath eachother:
mapList.append gulf_of_oman gpm_cq 32 (working version)
mapList.append Gulf_of_Oman gpm_cq 32 (not working version)

Now you probably noticed the capital letter at the start of the mapname!
Some maps where in my maplist without a capital letter and those where the maps that worked!!!

Who would have guessed this was the cause!
1. This is a Windows server!
2. AAS start message was visible ingame!

OUTSTANDING!

Thanks for your perseverence!

We'll make a point of ensuring everything is lowercase for future releases.

My apologies for the incovenience and thanks for the perseverence and posting back here with a solution.

Re-read the posts and found other replies that were the same as mine.

Grosskopf = Largehead. Maybe you should start using what's inside!

It might be helpfull if you read the rest of the replies too.
Did you take the efford to read all 4 pages? Probably not!
Don't go walking around replying when you don't know the whole story.

You might end up posting something stupid like you just did!
