Hi all,

Just wanted to let you know that the TBG All Maps + DLC Server is only rotating vanilla maps now for some reason. Hope to see it be restored since there aren't many All DLC map servers these days.
 
It runs on base maps when there isn’t enough players in the server. It auto switches adding DLC when it reaches the threshold. Been going on for a while now unless it’s broken which I don’t think it is. Doesn’t seem like the server got going like it normally does
 
Yeah, normally the server is busy, almost every night. Guess this night was an exception. I played three games on it Tuesday evening though and they were all vanilla maps. Would you be able to check if the DLC was enabled then? The server was pretty packed too.

And out of curiosity, what exactly is the threshold number (if you're able to say that is)?

@Matt-aka-FAST Hey Fast, are you sure the DLC toggling is working as intended? I noticed that the hardcore server reverted as well to just vanilla maps and right now there are about 40 players in the server who just started a new match and there's still no DLC. Now I have played enough matches in the non-hardcore server to know that DLC maps are definitely enabled with 40 players, and yet DLC maps are nowhere to be found in either server. I'll provide an update in a few hours if the server reaches max capacity.

Update: So yeah, it doesn't seem like the DLC switching is working at all for both hardcore and non hardcore servers. New pictures attached with the server at 50 players and still no DLC maps.

Update 2: Hardcore server is now almost full at just under 60 players, and DLC maps are not enabled. Whatever issue is plaguing this server is also affecting the non hardcore server.

Update 3: Ok, so it appears the hardcore server has reactivated the DLC now. Does the server need to be maxed out at 64 players before DLC is activated? Or how does it work exactly? Anyway, won't retract my previous comments as this has been a learning process for me.

Can confirm as well, I first noticed it Tuesday night as well when the server was nearly full.
 
Sorry to revive this almost two month old thread, but the server is acting wonky again. I have attached two screenshots, one showing the state of the server at the end of a match. The server is full and DLC is still not activated. The second screenshot shows the server after starting the new match with about 50-55 players, and DLC is still disabled.

I have also noticed that in the evenings (EST), the server will revert to vanilla maps even if DLC was previously enabled for multiple rounds beforehand and will not re-enable DLC even if it is full. In any event, the DLC toggle is not working properly all of the time, only sporadically. It might not be a bad idea to perhaps permanently enable DLC, since there will be fewer players interested if to them, it appears to just be another vanilla maps server.

It is plying dlc, it just needs to be a certain threshold of players full over a map to trigger the dlc

map history below shows it was playing dlc yesterday

Are you saying that there needs to be a queue of players waiting to get into the server before DLC is enabled? I was just playing a match in it now on Lancang and it was pretty full (62 players or around there). The voting options came up and it was all vanilla options, so I'm just trying to understand what the exact triggers are.
 
DLC is working again, but it was vanilla maps only for a few hours there and a full server. Would you consider possibly lowering the threshold at which the DLC is enabled? Again, it's really the only North American DLC server out there that is consistently populated.
