How to play a scenario with amplio2 in Freeciv 2.6 ?

It seems that in version 2.5, differences between isometric and non-isometric rectangular tiles are display differences only, so that it is possible to load a non-isometric savegame with an isometric client.
In version 2.6, scenario savegames are non-isometric, so now the client automatically selects trident tileset.
Is it possible play a scenario with amplio2?
I've tried
but it still loads trident.

Hi javaxubuntu, sorry nobody has responded yet- this is an issue that is being resolved in 2.6.1. As a workaround, assuming you've already set and saved your preferred tileset options in Client Options, start the server separately first with the command line option '-f path_to_your_*.sav_here', then set the topology you want with server commands, and THEN join the server from the client. See issue#
685235 for discussion, and
this topic for more discussion.

Thank you for your response. There is no need to start the server separately, but I had to force the value "amplio2" even if it was not proposed by the list.
(and for your information I'm Pierre R who added a comment to the bug report)
