C211 Fog of war issues.

[Serenity "SerenityFireFly" FireFly]

Hey devs, after spending hours online today my map was working fine, now after mining i check my map and its coming up with squares of fog of war were i have already opened on map (got rid of fog of war) the fog of war issues get bad when zooming in on map, when i zoom out it shows a square of fog of war, tried relogging, doesnt fix the map, then when i check map ten mins later its opened again then comes up with fog of war again, have messaged people on friends list too they are also having issues with fog of war on map aswell as me and Cuey. Fog of war issues in C211

If you are having fog of war issues in C211 feel free to post your issue here

I had the same problem and the devs know about it and are working on it and here is the fix.

1. Close AW if open
2. Go to this folder: "C:\Users\*user-name*\AppData\Local\Dedicated Logic\AfterWorld Survival\"
3. Remove "cache.local.sdb" file (thats the local map cache data)

Restart AW and wait for a few minutes, so the server re-sends whole map to the client (it will create cache.local.sdb file and re-fill data).

=================

If it works then everyone who tried it please note here you fixed it so the devs know how big of a problem it is.

I'd prefer not touching files as the last time i did i had to reinstall Aw Again, (windows would not let aw work or let me install it again i had to get the aw folder of Cuey and play from .exe in the aw folder) will wait till devs have a fix for map,  hope it'll be soon and the bug stopped before C211 i barely had problems with it now its all the time, so in my opinion its relevant to c211

known issue, may be a quick fix but having to delete aw file(cache files all time) and it happen again is something players shouldnt have to do.. also shows it doesn't work fully if people have to keep re doing it.. don't worry to much about map... theres information on wiki were things are and if you need help you can always ask a friend.

my ENTIRE map is now black with only the marks i have made left showing.

It happened to me yesterday that my half map was black!

I followed Dalewj suggestion:

1. Close AW if open
2. Go to this folder: "C:\Users\*user-name*\AppData\Local\Dedicated Logic\AfterWorld Survival\"
3. Remove "cache.local.sdb" file (thats the local map cache data)


and problem was solved!

Hope this helps

Yes , i also use this to fix most times but this time it seems map didnt load from the server so it just black and also i dont leave a trail behind now
