Server.exe crashing during map load. Spark_Core.d

<div class="IPBDescription">Server crash</div>EDIT: I updated the server to 215, through steamcmd. Now it seems to boot just fine!
So problem solved.


Hi!

Im trying to setup a Dedicated server on a dedicated machine. Unfortually the Server.Exe keeps crashing
during loading of a map. "Server.exe has stopped working". 'Spark_Core.dll' is mentioned as a faulty module.
I did get an old version up and running before, but now that version crashes too. Maybe something else have been messed up by my "fixing".

The two methods of installing that ive tried were copying files from my Steamaccount and using the server.exe from there,
and the second method is by using the steamcmd method described in forumposts and wiki.

The dedicated machine is a Windows 7 Pro x64 machine.

The following info is from the steamcmd method:

The console-window show the following:

C:\miscServers\Gvision\ns2server>Server.exe -name "GVISION #1 Northern Europe" -
map ns2_tram -limit 16 -lan false
Changing setting 'lanGame' to: 'false'...
Changing setting 'mapName' to: 'ns2_tram'...
Changing setting 'serverName' to: 'GVISION #1 Northern Europe'...
Changing setting 'playerLimit' to: '16'...
Press Tab to open the console window
Press Ctrl-C to exit
