adenau_r issue

[Pandalsson 1st MRB]

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone else got issues with MDLCache and VTX files not loading for that map?

Whenever I enter the private server on this map I get a screen of opaque colour flickering between khaki and grey. I haven't been able to reproduce how I got it to go away the two times I was able to play on the private server.

When I host on my end, there is no problem so I figure it's something server side. I have tried deleting and reloading the map (twice) and restarting the game as well, all to no avail.

Also cleaned out my game cache as well and still no results.

This is what I get on my console:

Download the map from the front page of the forums and see if you still have a problem.

Did it somewhat help with lower settings? Like MSgt. Magoo said you might need to DL the file off the homepage incase it 'somehow' failed to DL that specific file to support it.

Also they have this option in DODS where it DL the files from the server in Options > Multiplayer > DL all custom files

Check if that was left as not to DL anything

This particular section is received by everyone if I'm not mistaken. I know I get it no matter what server/map I'm on/in.

The rest of it has to do with the textures not loading correctly for those particular custom models within the map. Two ways to fix this:

Download the models individually and place them in your dod/models folder. The textures that come with them would be placed in your dod/materials/models folder.

Or you could just try and keep downloading the map until it works for you.

Let me know if you choose the first option, I have all of those custom models in my models folder along with all the textures.

Thanks for the help guys. Turns out, I didn't realize that there was an update on my GFX card. At least one that was not 2 years old (thx Janke).

Crossing fingers that that was the reason why.
