My name is FalconUS-VT, I started playing TT sometime in 2003. In 2005 I joined VT, 2007 I left for a 4 year leve of absance because of school related issues. I am back now, but I am not nearly as good as I once was. So many of my friends have left, and this veteran tanker has taken a toll because of everything thats happened in the 4 weeks I have been back.

Hi Cwby, I saw you in the server the other day and you left before the map that you don't have in your game directory was not finished loading. You see, there are 12 stock maps that come with Think Tanks. Now modders have made close to 1000 other maps that you need to let load. If your in a game like yestarday and the game ends and you find that you are not dropping in the next map,, so you leave and come back and still nothing. That means you don't have the terrain file needed. If you just wait you will load the map. It may take 5 minutes or more but you can't leave the server or the map download will have to start all over.
If you look in the forums here you will find the expansion pack which has many of the maps, and other non stock items that you would be waiting to load. I suggest you install the Napalms X pack for starters or if you want, I can help you install Dazzles all in one which has CTF and Rollerball plus some x tra scripts.
Also if you add the "never ending download bar script" to your main.cs file which is located directly inside your Think Tanks folder, you will not see a blank screen when you join a server with a map or items you don't have but you will see the items that you are actually loading.
I suggest you install Skype and I can help you update your game with all of this quickly.
