Unable to eat at Karma's Diner

My system has a problem with the Karma's Diner map. There is a compatibility problem with the map and my Skybox.utx texture. I can play the map offline but as soon as I go online, I get this error:

'Downloading package 'Skybox' failed: Server refused to send 'Skybox''

I deleted my Skybox.utx file hoping the server would send its version (it doesn't) and I still get the same error. Where/how can I get a compatible version of this texture file?

I'm afraid you'll have to delete the entire map. I'm presuming that you still have your copy of the map, and you only deleted the texture package. Now my prediction is that when you jump onto the server, it's providing you an updated skybox package while your old map is waiting for the old one (more mismatches).

I could be mistaking though. I doubt someone modified the package, itself, but when I see "server refuse to send" I immediate blame mismatch errors or the redirect. Seeing that mostly everyone gets in okay, I can't point my finger at that. My best guess is to remove all packages concerning the Diner. Be sure to check the static mesh folder as well ;)

Hope this helps.

When I delete the local map, it gets downloaded into my cache with no problem. However UT still gags on the Skybox.utx file. The server simply won't send the Skybox.utx file even if I delete my local copy of it.

I don't know how to determine the map's dependencies. I tried using UnrealEd but I have no idea how to use it.

Also since this problem only happens online, I never experience it unless this map is voted. (Btw the previous version of this map worked fine.)

Hey ya Seven!

There may be one or two other things we can try if the set of files you got from 'morph still give you the same issue. Let us know! Thanks!

Somehow nightmorph's Skybox.utx is different than the two versions I had. I have no idea why a stock texture file would be different. It makes sense that the server won't send stock files. I just wish that UT's error messages were more helpful. I'll know if the texture works the next time the map is voted.

Thanks for all your help! :faroah:
