Feral City Cinema not working?
« on: September 21, 2014, 04:52:08 pm »
Hi, I need help. I have Feral City and the Cinema with it, and whenever I go to the cinema I always get a message saying
"Cannot connect to map server. Retry?" when I click "ok" it just sits there on the loading screen until I close the game. I have been able to go on the cinema map before and it worked fine, but now it does this. Sorry if this has already been asked, but I haven't found any threads on this. Help me please.

Its a issue with the server itself I think, I get it myself sometimes but I find logging onto a different character and going to the map then switching back fixes it... most of the time anyway.


Not around much anymore but add me on Discord if you want to chat. jellyfish2224

Failed to connect to map server is a message you also can get while changing maps and entering portals in the game. It's usually nothing severe either, and as worst, your character might be stuck in that map until there's a reset of the map server process. Another issue similar to this can be if you get the loading screen after choosing a character, but it never loads. Most of the time it should be followed by this "failed to connect" message. If you try to choose another character that isn't placed in the same map, it sometimes let you play since every map in the game, has it's own server process. Sometimes the server needs to be restarted in order to fetch some stuck characters. If you had characters that's been stuck for weeks, you should contact the staff.

Other then the obivous reset home for your character to get them "unstuck" and trying again, make sure all the OTHER FH maps are working fine for you as well. Your best bet might be to uninstall and reinstall the whole feral heart city map itself(including the cinema map). Hope this helped a little <3

Another solution that seems to work alright (once you get your characters unstuck and whatnot as mentioned above,) is simply just waiting. Sometimes it'll let you in if you try again like, let's say 5 minutes later or something. Worth a shot anyway, right??

Sounds like there's an issue with the server. Try changing the character you play on when you entire the map. Clean out any busy files. If all else fails, try redownloading the map- while you're at it, check the download's page to see if other people have had the same problems with the map.
I hope this helps, at all! :)
