Spring won't work(missing mods/maps)

[frab26]

Well, when i open the multiplayer lobby program it says it can't find any mods.

I've tried reinstalling it and including ALL the mods,it only takes about 6 minutes, and when i open it, it STILL doesn't work.

When i try to open spring.exe and select a script, it says 'couldn't find any map files' even though they were selected in the installer.

I installed in a custom folder and not in program files if that matters.



EDIT:And,which mods are the ones that require you to have a copy of TA?Would be a big help if someone told me.

Thanks!

server is down, you can't play until it's up, so you can get the maps and mods.

IT took so short to install because it just kept cancelling the downloads due to the server being down?



EDIT:are BA and XTA the only mods that i need to own a copy of TA for?

[Tobi]

yes and yes (if you talk about mods in the installer, there are many other mods available on UF that also require you to own a copy of TA)

But is there a LIST?

Or could someone at least tell me what those mods are?


Or are all those mods the one's with TA and annihilation in their names?

[Tobi]

Mostly yeah.

I don't think anyone made an exhaustive list yet, but indeed if it's abbreviated by *A (e.g. AA, BA, CA, XTA) it usually is a mod that contains content from original total annihilation.

Does that include the star wars spring mod?

But, what could a 3D game take from the original TA?
Sounds?I can't imagine a spring mod using any graphics from the original TA..

[Tobi]

OTA already had 3D models with textures and stuff. So most OTA mods use those + sounds, cursors, etc.

So, are the servers to download the mods/maps still down, if yes is there an estimated time when they are back on?
