Hi,

Every time I tried to join a server NS2 would crash with something similar to this log.

Do you have any mods enabled?
they could be conflicting with server mods
it could also be shine conflicting with DAK, but I think not.

Try running ns2.exe as admin.

Ok do me a favor and disable steam cloud for ns2. Then delete %appdata%\Natural Selection 2\ and steamfolder\userdata\yoursteamid\4920 ( <-will reset all your options ).

Also while doing unsubscribe from any mod here: http://steamcommunity.com/workshop/browse?appid=4920&browsesort=mysubscriptions&browsefilter=mysubscriptions&p=1

It worked. Unsyncing and deleting steamfolder\userdata\yoursetamid\4920
