Possible cause, but unconrifmed: ZR Tools may not be stable on SM 1.3

Can anyone confirm that ZR B2 works fine (that is playable uninterrupted gameplay) on SM 1.3 (linux server)?

The complaining clients get in the console :

Netchannel: failed processing message svc_UpdateStringTable

what is causing this and how to fix it ?

Searched for "failed processing message svc_UpdateStringTable" and found this at steam support: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_...9121-WIFJ-7222

Hm.. the string table is where you put file paths that you want clients to download. But since I'v never seen this anywhere else its probably something with your configuration. How many files do you have being downloaded?

CS:S* · 01-23-2010 , 14:50 Re: ZR B2 and SM 1.3 gets player to reconnect on map change.

i do not think is about this files ,because after 3 hours of testing i turn the server back in sm 1.2.4 and we changed 50 maps with 5 of the complaining players and it did not do it on one ... so this is something to do with ZR + SM 1.3 and i'm 110 % sure ... i have not changed anything in the server ,i just loaded sm 1.2.4 and it worked fine ...

my problem with 1.2.4 is that it doesnt set the map cfg's and that is why i went on 1.3 but since i get this crap on map change i do not know what to do ...

If you can help me fix the cfg problem on 1.2.4 i will stay with it pls

Why don't you install the official 1.3 SM?

You are running the development branch.

mms 1.8.0

We might need to do a new compile of ZRTools for SM 1.3, but this can't be the reason of this problem. SM should be backwards compatible, but we might switch to SDK Hooks if it's unstable on SM 1.3.
