Title: Can't open a demo, or start new server IN GAME?
Post by: JUICEY on June 03, 2011, 08:28:05 PM: Alright so I was organizing my PBALL folder, and then I wanted to see start my own server in game, and a message appeared saying: CANT LOAD PICS/MAPSHOTS/pbcup_pforest. The same goes for watching demos in game. Does anybody know what's going on, and how I can fix this? I might of deleted the wrong thing on accident so does anybody know where/how I can get it back?

Oh and that mapshot error is nothing, just means you don't have the picture of the map that comes up when choosing a map to set.

Post by: JUICEY on June 03, 2011, 09:06:52 PM: Yeah I was thinking of reinstalling, but I was just wondering if there is anything else I can do before I reinstall.

Some files don't download so when I play it looks something like the Star Trek TNG Holodeck where missing files should be. How can I go about getting the files downloaded so when I play it looks normal???

Look here:
ftp (: here) //otb-server.de/
But it might be hard to find... Rather post what files don't you have, so someone will give you pack with these textures?

Or i misunderstand?

P.S. Why don't you create new thread?

I believe running a full install over your current install will overwrite the missing files. This as minor hint before entirely reinstalling everything and losing a lot of personal data like maps, screenshots, demo's, etc. I'm not sure though, but I think it's worth giving a try.
