Title: I can't connect to any map servers except Lonely Cave?
Post by: PyroFallon017 on June 20, 2017, 03:48:23 am

I've been a player for a long time but I lost my internet a while ago. I got a new phone and I'm using it as a personal hot spot, so I can be here and on the game itself. However, every time I try to leave LC or load a character that isn't in LC, it tells me "Failed to connect to map server. Retry?" and if I click OK it just sits there on the loading screen. Help?
(Sorry for misspellings, I'm not wearing my glasses/contacts)

Do you have the latest version of the game installed? A patch came out in June 2016 ^^

Thank you! What about my presets, markings, items, and custom maps? Do I just transfer those?

You can for the presets, items and custom maps but with the new patch the markings have a new installation location.

Place the markings files in C:\FeralHeart\media\textures\markings   Thought i'd let ya know cause that installation location is a bit different than the previous version.

markings.cfg file goes in C:\FeralHeart as before.

Happy to help! ^^
Let us know if you run into any issues.

Here's a little extra note. I'm sure you were already aware of this as you were able to access Lonely Cave in the old game version and i'm not sure if that's possible without having this open when you did that.
But anyway, make sure you have this login game tab open throughout your game play or else you will not be able to connect to the game server: https://feral-heart.com/login/index.php
