Dearest Admins,

Please unkick and/or unban Fred Bob for (null) please on the New Maps server.

This has happened two or three times in the past and it is getting a bit old, I might say.

My CD key is legit, so banning someone else with the same key also bans me!

Thanks for your attention in this matter.

Sincerely,

Fred Bob

After 15 days offline, I am happy to announce that the New Maps server is finally back online.

What has become of the New Maps Server? Where oh where can it be?

Dear Server Admins,

The New Maps server appears to be offline today.  Can someone please take a look? My bet is it just needs a reboot.

Thanks,

As of 17 November, the New Maps server appears to be offline with a 9999 ping. Please investigate. Perhaps it simply needs a restart.

All the best,

Fred Bob

I have this problem today on New Maps server:  Kicked for reason "(null)". 

I tried another SiMPLE server and it tells me I was kicked for team killing. If I did TK, it is usually a stupid mistake on my part, and for that I am sorry if true.

Who can help please?

Many thanks,

Fred Bob

@Paul Baumer and @Xberg, the New Maps server is now behaving itself once again. Thank you for your help in bringing sanity back to the server operations!

Hello? Anybody home?

Once again:  Please remove Operation Forager from the New Maps map rotation until the crash bug is fixed AND tested.

Thanks,

Fred Bob

Does anyone respond or answer to Questions in posts? This forum is like an echo chamber...

Any way, I am no longer getting kicked for "(null)".

Question:  Is this a patch to apply on the client side or is it server side only?

Question 2:  If client side, where can I download this patch?

Thanks,

Update 2: Thanks to whoever got the New Maps server back online.  However, the crashing issue with the Operation Forager map is STILL happening. Cheers!

Update 3: I repeated the crash playing for the Axis team while taking the West Gate flag also.

Silly Bug #1: I learned the Island flag displays as a German flag instead of a Japanese flag when captured by the Axis team.

Silly Bug #2: The Island flag radius is TINY, while the West Gate flag radius is HUGE.

Request: Please remove Operation Forager from the map rotation until the crash and the other bugs are cleaned up.

Update: Today (7 May 2025), the New Maps server is offline. Can we at least restart it and put it back online?

#16 Re: BF1942 Discussion » New Maps server recently keeps restarting and playing the same map » 2025-05-06 18:05:07

Steps to Reproduce the Issue:
0) Join the New Maps server.
1) Pick Allied team and accept the default kit.
2) Go to the East Gate and enter the building closest to the flag and stand in the corner closest to the flag.
3) Wait for the flag to change.  ==> The "WARNING: Connection Problem Detected" appears and the map crashes.
4) Rejoin the New Maps server. ==> Unfortunately, the same map reloads, even if a new map was selected.
5) Repeat steps 1-3. ==> Same behavior is repeated.

Looks like a number of new maps were added to the map queue recently. Since then, the New Maps server crashes while playing Operation Forager, especially while taking a flag. The message is the standard "Warning - Connection Problem Detected" message that we all know is often displayed for problems having nothing to do with the connection. This copy of Operation Forager is not original and appears to be modded slightly. Perhaps there is a bug? What do you all think?

Thanks,
Fred Bob

Good Evening,

Not sure what brought this on, but today I keep getting this message when I try to join a game on the New Maps server: "Banned for team killing". Please unban me so I can keep playing on Simple. Any TK on my part was likely inadvertent and likely involved bots, since I am often the only human player.

Thanks,

Fred Bob aka Fred Bob in game

Update:  Fred Bob is banned from all SiMPLE servers for "ban evading". I was just trying to rejoin the game, after I was kicked for (null). Please help fix this obvious mistake.

1) I spawned on the Allied team on the Supply Line map, playing all bots, but not sure if any real players present other than myself.
2) Fired a bazooka at an Axis tank.
3) Hid myself around the bridge abutment.
4) Kicked from server: "You were kicked for (null)".
5) Tried to rejoin the game. ==> Message: "You are banned for ban evading". (???)

Help please fix this puzzling ban. Has an admin gone mad perhaps?

Thanks,

Map vote system has been changed slightly, for now. If a map vote is successful, the next map gets set to it, but it does not end the round immediately. You will have to play the current map, until the map that got voted is run. So, map vote is now a decision for the next map and not to change the map to whatever map is being voted.

When there is only one player, as is often the case on New Maps, there is no point and the change should be immediate, in my opinion.

Hi Admins,

I recently noticed a problem on the New Maps server. I tried to use the Map Vote feature but a message appeared on the screen stating that map vote was disabled. Can we please reactivate Map Vote on the New Maps server?

Thanks,

Fred Bob
