Lan Server Crashes On Join

Troy_McClure

<div class="IPBDescription">When i join my LAN game it crashes</div> All right NS is a great game but i really want to get better at commander and hav friends join in at my house too. So i decided to set up a LAN server with bots using RocketCrowBot, I start HLDS and metamod and adminmod both load and so do the bots. But as soon as any real person tries to enter the server it crashes and the person never connects. In the HLDS log it says Trying to Authenticate with WON when they join even though i have sv_lan set to 1 and nomaster in the commande line. It even says master communication disabled. I also disabled RCbot and metamod but it still crashes on joining. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo--> Any help greatly apprecited. I want my NS, please find it in your hearts to help me.
Thanks

Did you properly install metamod in the first place, my pc had the same problem till I just figured out that metamod was causing the problem, but I couldn't unstall it, prehaps a buggy build?

Well I started the server without metemod but it is still techinically installed, i think i did it right, just installed using the adminmob 2.50 install script. But i will completely remove metamod files (just delete NS and reinstall) and see if it works! By the way anyone know of a good place to get metamod plugins, especially something comparable to StatsME.

The latest build of rcbot version b24 is bugged. I've reported most of these bugs already however what I find is that after playing a successful game of ns, a new map loads, well me and my bud hop around in the RR and I join marines, well then all this freaky stuff happens, Music looping and sound looping, then I get: Report error to Microsoft and the game crashes. More bugs I've noticed with the rcbots is that the marine commander bot in ns_bast has a tendency of building structures in the ready room, I have no idea how he does that, the last major bug I found in the new version of rcbot is that the alien gorge never seems to build the hive, you have to turn on sv_cheats 1 and type spawnhive to get more of a challenge or build the hive yourself. Click Run and run Drwtsn32.exe to see details from each crash.
