Why is the title of this post
Cvar_update: handle out of range
:???:
This has nothing to do with Cvar =)
Maybe you DO have a leak and putted the “give leak error”-option off in the Preferences

Backup all of your of your map files, textures, shaders, etc… Then uninstall both Enemy Territory and SDRadiant. Do a fresh install into the default directory for Enemy Territory, and install SDRadiant into that. Then install another copy of Enemy Territory into a unique directory that you will only use for playing online. I think the culprit is rouge configs and custom pk3 files that you download in the course of playing ET.

Also try using the search feature on the forums, quite a few people have already asked this question.

There are two ways you can do this, open a command prompt and go to the directory that holds these files: Example
“C:\Program Files\Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory\etmain”
“del <filename>”
No Quotes
Depending on the Operating System you may have to type the full path. Example:
“del C:\Program Files\Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory\etmain&lt;filename>”

If that doesn’t work, restart your computer in safe mode, then get to your files through Windows Explorer and delete them[/quote]

I had this CVAR_UPDATE problem and all the solutions here didn’t fix it. Well, because I didn’t really understand the problem correctly.

I deleted all the pk3 files from my /usr/local/games/enemy-territory/etmain folder, but that’s not where the problem file was. there was also a hidden directory in my $HOME folder, called .etmain (notice the dot in front, that means its hidden) … anyway I renamed that folder to .etmainGAME and then I could test my map. when I want to play again, i rename it back to .etmain and i’m good to go.

hope this helps other penguins out there.
