Map Files Differ? On All Servers?

<div class="IPBDescription">annoying problem</div> I recently decided to check out the Natural Selection 3.0 beta, but after installing it (and updating steam) I've been trying to play it... but for some damn reason all the servers shut me out because of some form of difference in the map files... Getting seriously annoying.

Any ideas where I can get these new/updated/changed maps?

AFAIK the NS I'm trying should be the files that can be downloaded from the main NS site.

    You've patched the game, right?

    Are you using NS Beta 3 version 3.3?

    Even if you are, here is an EASY (tho time consuming) fix

    Delete ALL the map files... sounds, .bsp's, sprites, the WHOLE lot

    STEAM will automaticly re-download em when you go to connect to a server (It'll DL any missing files for you)

    It may take a while tho, since the maps are some of the BIGGEST files in the NS folder <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo--> At least it'll make sure it's the right version tho <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->
