Hi.
First off:
Just reinstalled windows, so I had to reinstall steam. So everything is fresh. I have also reinstalled steam to try to fix this issue, didnt work.
So when I join the MG server the map is on mg_swag, so it starts downloading the map - I see the white bar move.. then all of a sudden the classic "Missing map xxxxx.bsp" shows up. So, I try again and now it downloads and I can get in the server. GREAT!
To try to replicate the error again I deleted the map from my maps folder, sure enough, when I try to dl the map again, i get the ERROR about half way through the download(the white bars) But this time when I retry - I get the error again. This goes on a few more times until eventually it finally works, and I can get it
So its really inconsistent as far as when it will work.. have done the above steps multiple times, and cannot find a pattern.
I have tried it with MULTIPLE of maps.
I had someone remove some maps from their download folder and try to redownload them, they had no problems
I tried joining a different MG server - same problems as above
My internet connection is stable - happens on wireless and wired.
cl_downloadfilter all is set.
Anyone have clues as to whats going on?
