Unable to connect after IWD update.
« on: January 31, 2009, 03:30:07 PM »
Hey guys - I think most of the people that play on the server know me, because I'm such a talk-a-lot.. and I'm about a month new to this server
Well.. just like 5 minutes ago.. I tried to connect to the server... and I noticed it downloaded a new a2.iwd file from the ftp.
I considered this normal, as sometimes NOB's does some updates.
It was 22.73 MB big.. and it downloaded all the way.
Then it went on to load the current server map... and....
I get this message saying....

Impure Client Detected. Invalid .IWD Files Referenced
C:/games/cod2/nobs/a2.iwd

This is weird.. because I checked in the file and saw that there was 2 iwd files.
I think they are both the same file size.

Anybody have a fix?
Never had this problem before.
I'm going to try and delete the one that just downloaded, and see if the server corrects itself if there is anything wrong.
Please help me.

Thanks.

Update: I deleted the a2.iwd, and I connected without a hitch.
The only problem now is.. that it's just me and 2 other people and we are stuck in the spectators and the server isn't loading another map.
The other 2 people are...
NOBS|Smitty
and
NOBS|YourMom.

Its possible the map rotation froze, and an admin needs to rotate the map

Possibly.
Any explanation why Smitty is still on.
I see people connecting and disconnecting.. but no one but him really staying.
Maybe he is working on the server?

ETA on Admin optimization?

I don't know.
Smitty in another topic mentioned that he was going to be doing huge maitenance.. maybe this is it.
The only problem with that is no-one's helping him so it's gonna take longer.

+

I really love the server and playing with everybody and it's taking so long.
xd.

Update: Riggs, you didn't fix it.
It's still down.
