I haven’t really haven’t started a real map since I started Isle back in Dec, which was a total learning experience for me. I understand what I’m doing and I’m just plugging in the very basics to take a look at what I’ve started. ET starts but does not load and is stuck at awaiting challenge. At first I thought maybe I had too many pk3s or that i had that nasty xscript3.pk3 (which I did have) which prevents some custom maps from loading. So I cleared some of them out and I run again, it takes its time at awaiting a challenge and then it actually finds a server when its suppose to be connecting to my own server to run my map! lol. Any ideas here? lol

wtf lol.[/img]

Are you trying to join in pure mode?
Can cause problems - sv_pure 0 and devmap <mapname> might help - dunno, but worth a try :slight_smile:

heres my start up; C:\games\WolfET\ET.exe +sv_pure 0 +g_gametype 2 +sv_cheats 1 +developer 1 +devmap ruins

if ur starting with devmap u don’t need the +sv_cheats 1 (devmap does that already)

tho i doubt that that’s the reason for that weird screenie :o

i would recommend a fresh install of ET to see if it still happens.

cheers.

Have you been trying to get a standalone server to run? Maybe that has messed up your config/dll files.
