I think I might have narrowed the problem down to of all things...putting the map in a bz2...
I know it seems really weird, but last night I did another test and most people still crashed, but I found that while the game crashed, the bz2 was still in people's map folders, if they unzipped it, the map would run completely fine. So...what I need tonight is to test the raw BSP download instead of putting it in a bz2. I also emailed Valve, but I dont have high hopes about them getting back to me. This will double the download size of the map from 15 to 30 megs, but its still a lot less than most custom PL maps are when they are put into BZ2s (Hoodoo is like a 60 meg Bzip). If this works we can put out a V1, but will have to put in big bright red letters on the download DO NOT PUT INTO A BZ2Â :-\ Â Sig by Joel |

Just a question for you Caff. Should I download Norad from FPSBanana, or am I going to want to get it off of the BRBU server when I connect?

No, this is testing a bug fix, which is only triggered when you _download_ the map from the server, so no, you can't get it before hand  Sig by Joel |

It work?
<+Karrde> welp, time to learn some basic patterning skills <@Negate> 12121212121212121212 <@Negate> there is a simple pattern <+Karrde> I changed my mind. Gonna cosplay as a gay demon from hell and get negate raped instead XD <+Caffeine`work> Karrde: Gay demon? Why would you need to cosplay just go as yourself <+FlyingMongoose> Caffeine`work: Karrde would actually have to tone it down some. |
