Okay, here's the deal. When I upload custom maps, I upload EVERYTHING in the RIGHT places. When people join the server while it's on a custom map, they have missing scenery. The thing is, they have all the custom scenery, but they're missing default scenery.
Here's what I came up with:
When people request the map, the server sends them all the custom scenery and texture. It also sends normal, default scenery, which isn't on the server (The scenery-gfx folder on the server only contains custom scenery). Since the server doesn't have it, it just sends blank files with that scenery's name on it. This causes the white squares where standard scenery should be. The only thing I can think of to fix this, is to upload all the standard scenery as well. This would be a huge upload and would take a ton of my space on the server.
Chibi and I tried to figure it out, but that's all we could come up with. So, I come here in hope of finding an answer. Got any ideas?
