Region maps not loading

[bitza]

Regional maps that I have previously completed and viewed in the past do not load. Local maps seem to load fine.

Scratch that, just tried again and local maps aren't going now either. I dont think this is a result of lag, at least not due to online player counts because it doesn't work now with 300 online and it didn't work earlier when the count was only 120 or so.

edit: embarrassing typo, apparently there is an 'o' in counts

standard client or pacho´s?

regular client...also worth noting i suppose that minimaps in the HUD are loading fine

I did recently do a little garbage collection on map images to clear up some hard drive space, which may have caused it. I only removed maps that hadn't been looked at for two (RL) weeks, though.

Well, our map archive, which was hundreds of manhours of tedious mapping, is now completely useless. GREAT.

Bad enough all the Russians I know use a CHEAT to bypass the entire cartography system, now you just made all those who DID play by rules have their effort , and backup maps, etc., just get wiped. Or of course someone who was sick or on spring break, their maps too. And probably all those Dwarf Fortress players who have been AWOL in Toady-land since April 1st or so, will come back to No Maps.

Sigh.

That's what you get for using a broken obsolete system. Just use the russian client and you'd have 10 times more space mapped.

Damn, so that's where all my maps go. People, look at your maps at least once in 13 days, or loftar will delete them!

Do map segments randomly fade away over time? I ask as I have had some complete maps develop "holes" in them, it doesn't seem to be rollback related tho as it seems to be a mix of new and old segments that go missing.

Sorry for double posting.
Edited: My maps appeared to be much less filled in and missing most of yesterdays efforts. Then the client timed out and when i relogged they loaded up fully.

Does this Russian client have an English interface or is it all in Russian, I'm beginning to grow tired of not having any maps to use to lead my tribe members to a location without actually walking there myself.
Also what's this about a keylogger?
