Title: PNG maps not loading
Post by: hengli on September 03, 2015, 07:58 PM

Hi guys,

My WA is not working well. When I join games most of the time I can't load the maps, it shows '' map loading'' and then the thumbnail changes back to the default one. This happens with most PNG maps for shopper and others, once in a while a map will load and work. If I go inside the game when this happens I go inside the game and it loads the default terrain full of bridges and I disconnect.

I can host and my maps will load fine, even png ones and big rr ones so I have no idea what's happening. Can somebody help please?

Thanks!

Please don't install the game into the Program Files directory (unless you're using the Steam version). It has restricted permissions on writing files.

It happens when you have Worms Armageddon installed in C:\Program Files, or when you have limited rights for your system, it won't save replays either unless you run it as admin but you really shouldn't do it. Move your files to C:\Team17 instead.
