content download problem

Post by lupask »

Hello everybody, I have a "small" problem with the online content download system. The problem is - it does not work. ["could not connect to the content server"]
Yes, I've allowed communication for openttd.exe through the firewall (even disabled it at all) when it was asked for, and yes, I have tried a different connection (lucky to have a laptop). But nothing seems to work for me.

I was eager to try some new AI's since the first rumor of the new AI system, and also a few graphic modifications, but it seems i have gone out of luck :-(
Any suggestions please?

I see no reason on our side why you wouldn't be able to connect; the server has been interrupted that night. However it could've been a routing issue somewhere on the internet, but that would mean you could not connect to http://content.openttd.org/ . Besides that the only reason I would know is still a firewall somewhere at 'your' side of the connection; this could be one at your ISP though.

Hmmm. That page has redirected me to http://bananas.openttd.org/en/ . Maybe not exactly the solution I was looking for, but... there are so many files! I'll look into it. Thanks!

There was an issue with our main server and some things did not restart automatically they should have done. It should work again now.

Hello!
I'm having trouble downloading content as well. Content will download to some very small amount (like 130kb) and then simply stop :'-(

So you get the list of the content then? My window just stays empty and after a while it gives the connection problem error.

Actually my window won't load at all now either :'-(
I'm playing the beta 1.3 if it makes any difference.
Update:
Things are working again on my end ^^
