Hello. I have too many models and sounds precached on my server, but I haven't warning of the 512 limit. It is possible reason of this problem?

AFAIK that's because of too many entities on the map.

Too many players on a map with too few spawn points will do it real easy.

Try to increase server's -num_edicts launch option.

@E1, this won't work. Max entities was hardcoded inside code, something like 2048 entities, not sure. Also not sure how you created that big amount of entities in your server.

Besides, can be due the amount of entities you spawned at same or low delay of time .

IDK if it works, i don't use it. But:
I think 2048 is a default value.
I saw people use -num_edicts 4096.

The maximun number of entities is client-side and hardcoded.

You may find more details here

2048 is the maximum number of entities, the networking system can't handle more than that and the client will crash. Note that the server can raise the limit and still work as long as no entities are networked with an entity index higher than the default (900).
