Can't join Custom Map games
#1
Hi, I've been playing AC for about a week now, and I've played on all the regular maps. For some reason, when I join a custom map server, I can't spawn or even move around as a ghost? Maps such as Douze and Desert work because they're regular maps, but custom maps made by other players don't work for me;I can't spawn? I can chat, but right when I send the message it's gone. If you could help me, it would be great because I've been playing on regular maps, which get boring after a while.

Thanks,
Shado

There are two errors:

1.Could not write map to packages\maps\aw_Des_ptits_trous_rev.cgz. (I think "aw_Dez_ptits_trous_rev.cgz" is a map.)

2.Could not read map to packages\maps\aw_Des_ptits_trous_rev.cgz.

1) What operating system are you using?
2) Do you have read/write permission on this computer?

I'm using an HP G62 laptop, and how do you check if you have permission?

Oh, sorry, I'm using Windows

You could try to convince Windows that you're the owner of the computer and that you would like to be able to write files to wherever you choose, but by far the easiest option is to uninstall AC, then reinstall it to another location. When you're asked which folder you'd like to put it in, specifiy a folder in "My Documents", where you have full write permissions by default.
