    Alt-Tabbing crashes game instantly every time (In a state where the engine cant recover).
    Other than that I've had no problems!

    Disable mods. A old mod is reverting your game version.

    well, that's just rude...
    Bad mod... BAD!

    *Disabled ability to start the game <- forgot to mention that one


    Start game, black screen, engine is in a state from which it can not recover.

    Cleared cache, verified, deleted mods, etc.

    what would be the best way to play solo with bots so you could mess around with them? there doesn't seem to be an option

    Did Docking not get any alterations this patch? I had thought it was planned to remove locker rooms as a possible start location as it gives a huge advantage to the team that starts there.

    Files dont match. I've deleted and redownloaded multiple times. Deleted all the files in my docs, reinstalled steam and I still get this message when I try joining a server.

    This is because the server is on the old build of ns2. Try tomorrow, server admins have a life too :p

    Both my client and server say build 247 and I have no mods on either and I get this message :(

    ... I even re-downloaded the server too. BLAH!

    I think it's a case of them being more consistent (ie every time) which is always a good thing !

    There are much much larger changes then just removing locker rooms as a marine start location, though that has been done in the WIP version. The new and improved Docking is almost done, but didn't quite make this patch. It will definitely go out with the next patch, though.

    It's not an error - It's a feature

    It was designed to crash all the time, it just got fixed.

    Surprisingly, a lot of games I've played have issues with alt tabbing

    Only unreal engine / id tech engine games never seemed to give me issues with alt tab

    I've finally gotten it to join a server but it now has a fatal error after a minute or two. Just recently bought the game and I already can't play it? What kind of garbage is that? Does steam have a return policy for this junk?

    Until that sneaky alt tab crash is fixed for the 20th time (i swear nothing breaks more, hehe) you should have good results with using "fullscreen windowed" mode.. possibly at a minor fps loss depending on your system. If you intend on using alt tab frequently enough, it may be worth it to you in the meantime, however.

    I remember massive alt+tabbing problems with UE up intil UE3.0.
    Still, some UE3 games hate alt+tab (like, Tribes).

    Every time I attempt to change from Fullscreen to Fullscreen windowed it crashes with the same error as alt tabbing, zzz.

    I run a server and I was wondering if there was a way to disable the built in vote system? I don't like it as much as the Shine Admin GUI voting.
