Problem with art/world

[nimehner]

Hi!

Since I\'m on AMD64/Mandrake I build the 0.3.0.13 from CVS.
But after updating the art my art/world directory looks like this:

-rw-r--r--  1 jiriki jiriki    569 Feb 26 14:00 akkaio.zip
-rw-r--r--  1 jiriki jiriki    408 Feb 26 14:00 arena.zip

-rw-r--r--  1 jiriki jiriki    438 Feb 26 14:00 wtower.zip

All the small files only contain a sound.xml and I cannot join the game because of the following error:

planeshift.application.client:
  PSLoader: step 2: success
  PSLoader: step 3: success

crystalspace.maploader.parse.map:
  Could not open map file \'world\' on VFS!

Load
:
  loader->LoadMapFile(/planeshift/world/hydlaa_common,world) failed.

Load
:
  Region name was: hydlaa_common

ExecuteFlaggedRegions
:
  Loading region hydlaa_common failed!

Are the update repositories corrupted?
I already tried deleting all the files in art/world, but got the same ones again.

Ouch!
Either one of update mirrors has broken files, the updater itself is broken or You have done something wrong. What happens, when You run updater again ?
Restore previous art files (if you have them anywhere...) try again and watch the updater\'s output, maybe something will catch your eye.

mmh... coping the files from 0.3.0.12 helps (I can now join) and the updater does not destroy them (but I think does not really update them either).

The repository I got the files from is the one on laanx, since I have no other mirror in my updaterconfig.xml.

But many things are still wrong (arena is totally dark, menues look strange).

I\'m just downloading the 32-bit Linux installer and will try to get the art from it.

EDIT:

I just a:
wget http://laanx.fragnetics.com/updater_hidden/repository.zip
unzip repository.zip

From the file:
...
       
           
       
       
           
       
...

This seems to be corrupted and the cause of the problem.
Can anybody fix this?

a question : is this problem fixed ? I get exactly the same.

Nilrem posted updated map files here. The web page limits your access and it can be a long process getting all the maps, but I guess it is still better than nothing.

There was a recent post-0.3.0.13 change committed to CVS - http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/planeshift/planeshift/docs/history.txt?view=auto

2006-02-26 by Michael Gist
- Work done on linux updater support.

So its possible that the initial release of .13 under Linux had a bugged updater that didnt download world files properly, an issue that has now been corrected.

After being bitten in the past when trying to do cvs updates, I never make any major changes to planeshift without backing the whole lot up first with a \'cp -rp planeshift planeshift-bak\'

That commit was just to add some 32-bit/64-bit checking to the updater, although some crashes in the linux updater were fixed as well.  Hopefully linux binary updates can be gotten through the updater soon.
