Has anyone ever managed to download a map with the Workshop?

[Nezzer]

With a 10MB connection, I left RO2 on the main menu for half an hour downloading DieBresche and nothing happened. I didn't know how fast I was downloading or how much of it I had downloaded or if I was even downloading at all. Does the downloading function of the workshop work at the moment?

We should be able to download maps through Steam like a common game or mod. It would be much better that way IMHO. At the very least we should be able to see the download speed and progress some day.

yeah, seems to be working fine for me.

 

[Blitzk.-Bob]

No problem here.

 

[Nezzer]

Well, that's odd

 

[=GG= Mr Moe]

Works great for me.

Mayhaps my internet is a crap tonight

And do you guys know if the download goes on normally after we minimize the game?

Yes, it does for me at least.

I left my game on the main menu over night and downloaded all the custom maps available.... Though I didn't know this was what I was supposed to do until three days of not having any maps with Steam left on.

It is nice that you can get the maps in a much easier way than before, but it is difficult to determine what's going on in the background, if anything. Downloading from Steam makes more sense, but I can live with the current system I guess.

Works for me...

Doesn't seem to work for me no matter how long I leave it, or I'm just impatient. Either way I just download it manually from here.

I cant get it to work at all. When i check the folder that was downloaded, the file is 0 KB...Usually it ends up either droning on forever but never loading or crashes my game....I have had zero success with it....

Works for me. Although the occasional ping jumps when it suddenly starts downloading a map update mid-game can be a bit annoying.

You can actually just download the map in-game, exit, and the download will appear in the steam downloads tab as "steam workshop content", and will download until it is completed.

 

[Nezzer]

Yeah, looks like I'm in the same situation as Trooper and AussiePariah. Left it for a few hours yesterday and didn't complete a single download. I just don't know where the files are saved, where is it exactly? Is it still in the cache?

Cheers. I was thinking it was there, but I can only see the stock maps. It seems it hadn't even started downloading.

That's better, thanks

Looks like it's working now and pretty fast! I think it has to do with the ambiguous packages issue. Once I deleted them, it worked.

Edit: I've managed to download Bridges, ClimbUp and StalingradKessel, but some other maps like Ogledow and DieBresche won't download. Any idea Yoshi?

Honestly none, didn't have any issues grabbing them when I was at work.
