Can't access maps archive...

[Insanebird]

I can't access te maps archive at all. Ive tried looking at 1 models description. Ive tried looking at all of them and whenever I try it just comes up with the websites header then black. Does anyone know why?

it happend to me as well ...it lasted about 5 mhonts (....and suddenly it came back to life

 

[ZombieLordzero]

i can access everything but the maps (ai scripts, textures, triggers, 3d models) is it due to high traffic or a javascript thingy?

i'm using mozilla firefox 1.07, but its also the same with IE 5.0.

any ideas?

 

[Insanebird]

nah no Ideas btu sometimes when Im looking at maps I accidently click another link like forums are skins and it occasiaonlly shows me the maps for some strange reason

Oh people you can't stop posting this question all the time can you?

Reduce the number of maps that show per page. One suggestion from myself is that you come here a bit before midnight. The site is always faster at night.

At night, at night... Night where?

 

[Rui]

Where? > In some of the 24 hours of the day.
When? > from 21:00 PM to 6:30 AM (in summer).
How? > The sun "hides behind the cliffs" lol.

Rui what hes saying is what time zone's night.

 

[Nantuko_Husk]

Rui sais at midnight with the GTM

( i have GTM +2 )

 

[Rui]

GMT is Lisbon, etc. So that means that it's at 2 AM for Nantuko XD.

[N£cr0m@nc£r]

GMT = greenwich meridian time

if u have any doubts about time, and if u have windows, go to the bottom right of the screen (by default), press twice in the hours and then in the hourly spindle (dunno if u say this in english), u can see all countries GMT...

 

[dothackking]

this happens to me too... i have tried everything u said... and ive even tried using FF and IE... why cant i do it... i would really like to look at the maps...

 

[ben_xuereb]

well mayby its just your computers =P

 

[orcfan32]

It can't be their computers...their computer's have not control of the net. Any problems occurring have to do with the site. Also, do what Rui suggested if you haven't already.

 

[Mecheon]

No, it could easily be their computers

If I can get to the maps section, THERE is the evidence that it isn't caused by the website

If it was, then NONE of us could get there

Are you having trouble reading?

I have deleted ALL internet files, that should set the number of maps shown to the default 15. I have also tryed to go on the section at least 10 differnt times. 12 am, 12 pm, 6 am, 6 pm, 3 am, 3 pm, etc. I have tryed everything you people have suggested, and it still does not work.

Maybe you should set request timeout to a greater number.

 

[qwerty]

try waiting for it to load :roll:

 

[ZombieLordzero]

couple of questions:

can i set the maps per page anywhere else besides the map page?

if so where?

are the time-outs from the server due to high traffic?

if the time-outs are client side, where are they located so we can increase them(from the 30 or so seconds to 5 minutes/30minutes that it would take to load)? (each browser is probibly different, i'm useing firefox 1.07)

i just tried getting to maps from a back door of sorts:

went into models, clicked on hatchet, clicked on whitehorn, clicked on maps submitted from whitehorn, and same #$%^ error. top bar loads down to the grass, then cuts out. WTF....

 

[N00byStance]

Refresh maybe? :roll:

 

[ZombieLordzero]

i get the distint feeling that not accessing the map archive is the big pink elephant in the room that no-one wants to admit because its off again/on again/off again access. add that to the attitude that anyone who comes here asking about it gets, and i think i understand why some of the long-time members are leaving.

if you cant figure it out by now READ THIS:

SOMETHING IS BUGGY WITH THE MAP ARCHIVE!!!

LOOK INTO IT!!!!!!

Let me add in my last 2 cents: If it was a site problem, everyone would be experiencing it. I can tell you right now none of the moderators or admins are experiencing this problem, so we don't know what to do about it. I have that same problem with the forums every time I access it, but all I have to do is hit refresh and it is fixed.
