Hi all,


Started having problems since yesterday when players became stuck while loading maps (both official and custom) - some are getting through while others can't load into the server at all. No errors and no crash logs and so this one is a bit harder to diagnose. Anybody else having this issue? I can join my own servers just fine and also official dedicated servers.

Edit: I just tried joining a few best available dedicated servers are am stuck on loading page for all of them. Looks like this isn't just an issue on my end?

Don't think this cvar is available any longer. It's been replaced with sb_all_bot_game. I had that set to 1 before without any problems.

Error logs or something? You can't expect someone to diagnose the issue with no information.

If no error logs then provide list of plugins.

Thanks Lux - on further investigation I think it's because I downloaded optional files that were part of a custom campaign and clients were attempting to get the files without a proper FastDL setup and so they became stuck during the loading process.

I am testing further now and will advise shortly.
