Higgs Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 So I downloaded and installed the "Steel Beasts Map Transfer Manager" and tried to install the new maps. I managed to download two (Kiev East 3627b1a9-a197-49e8-a738-59a0b49076b5; Kiev West 8fd98b23-f3b7-45b4-b704-326aabb3aedb) but the other ones keep failing at 1% download. Has anybody else encountered the same problem? Is there a way to fix it or to get the maps using an alternative? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jartsev Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Could be connection problem, likely. Also note that maps you are trying to download are ~2-2.5GB each, so make sure that you are not running out of free space on disk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Higgs Posted August 9, 2022 Author Share Posted August 9, 2022 I do have enough space on the disk. Could be the connection although I doubt it. I never had any troubles with it. Is there another way to get my hands on these maps? Or do I need to try until it works? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no other way to get them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted August 9, 2022 Members Share Posted August 9, 2022 The map server is hosted on Amazon Web Services, and we're paying them dearly, so at least the web infrastructure should be solid. I seem to remember that there was some logging with the Transfer Tools too, probably where all the other logs are. Maybe there's an illuninating entry, somewhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12Alfa Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Another possibility- There was a outage recently. https://downdetector.com/status/google/map/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Higgs Posted August 9, 2022 Author Share Posted August 9, 2022 Okay so I managed to find a solution. For some reason, using a VPN fixes the issue. I don't know why but for me it works perfectly now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very glad you reported your issue and then the discovery of a workaround. Edited August 9, 2022 by Wax Savage 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
