game crashes


(Helljumper) #1

why does my game crash when i try to host a lan game?


(Wils) #2

Not sure - does it crash to desktop or lock-up/freeze/hang?


(Sauron|EFG) #3

Probably need to clean out some custom campaign pk3 files from etmain…


(Chappy) #4

Maybe some more details? Are you running etpro? Does the mapload start but crash once it’s finished? etc. etc.

Does it crash-to-desktop when you try hosting on every computer, or are the others OK?


(Helljumper) #8

(Sauron|EFG) #9

Did you try cleaning up etmain like I suggested?


(Helljumper) #10

I had a problem once with the ETPro testbugfixes, I usually start ET via a bat with “+set fs_game etpro” and if ETPro was running (only happened with the testbugfixes, no problem with 3.1.0) I couldn’t host LAN games unless I deactivated ETPro.


(Oxygen - o2) #13

so basicly DONT use ETpro just test it on ETmain the bug fixes shiukd affect ur map
