I always log on to AAOTTS before starting AA,check the forums ,then server trackers. So I can join you guys.

map

I find it very frustrating.I log off AAOTTS, load AA go to join the map, only to find that I do not have that version.I have to shut down AA , go back to AAOTTS download section, or Chevy's download section.Download the right version.Back to AA,by then you guys my have logged off. Very frustrating..
Sorry if sounds like windging.But it would make game life easier...!!!

I understand you mate, also happens to everybody
The problem is in the name of the map that the gametracker taken from the server.
The problem would be resolved if map creators write maps name with version (for every change on the map)
Some maps have it as-final, beta,..etc
Another possibility is would be to the admin who is upload maps on the server changes its names (also must change its name to tours.ini file) but .. a lot of work but not impossible

I can see your point, I've been running a twitter account so you know what versions are on the server.

I only post when the AAOTTS game servers have the map uploaded and ini files updated. This lets you know to go and download the updated or new map and it will match the version on the AAOTTS game servers.

151Alpha was doing the same, however no recent posts.

Our twitter url for the game servers is twitter.com/aaotts

We have the last few posts on this web site, replicated from twitter on the menu Downloads > Map Change Logs

The suggestion about the server list showing the version would rely on the game admins of those servers to update the info, I don't know of any automated way to get that info.

Hope the twitter account helps for now. The difference is a map may get uploaded to the web site but not onto the game server for a few days, this is when I post on twitter.

Enjoy the games
TT

I know Scouse what you feelin.
I have many versions of 'same' map on game maps folder. I have just named them differently like Zangal_Valley.aao => Zangal_Valley_tt.aao and Zangal_Valley_chevy.aao. Then I just rename maps back to original when needed. Not a solution but little faster way to get on the servers.

sounds like we need a central server to sync with

I asked Chevy to load Bridge xtreme on,one of his servers, which he did.I have 3 versions in my map folder, thought one of them wuld cover it.But of course I was wrong.
So thanks Chevy,sorry for not using, after you set it up at my request.
