<div class="IPBDescription">Wierd error</div>Hi I am running a fresh install of NS and whenever I try to play demos it will have an error saying something like

"Cannot continue without model number 32" or something along those lines. I have tried reinstalling, and I'm sure that the demos are from the same version.

Please help <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />

    Exact error log:

    Your client side .dll [cl_dlls\client.dll] failed the CRC check.
    The .dll may be out of date, or the demo may have been recorded using an old version of the .dll.
    Consider obtaining an updated version of the .dll from the server operator.
    Demo playback proceeding.
    Error: could not load file *138
    Model *138 not found
    Cannot continue without model *138, disconnecting.

    Hi, you need to have matching HL and NS versions in your demo file and your install.

    So you cannot view outdated demos with the most recent version.
    You also need any files, like custom maps etc that were used in the demo.l

    So lets say you want to view a demo of someone playing NS 3.0beta5, playing ns_customsiege_b3.

    You would need the exact same NS version, that the demo was captured with (3.0beta5) and you would also need the same custom map.

    Hope that helps.

    As I said in my first post I'm sure the demos are from the same version.

    My friend who has the same version of NS and HL as me currently has no trouble playing the same demos.

    Thanks anyways though <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />

    That always means you're trying to load a demo into a different version of NS than the one it was recorded in.
