<div class="IPBDescription">Read for information!</div> Just some heads up and information on models and the consistency check:
1) Consistency is off by default
2) The <a href='http://www.udpsoft.com/eye/' target='_blank'>All Seeing Eye</a> has a filter with which you can search for non-consistency servers
3) If you are having consistency problems even though you aren't using custom models, you can download the 1.03 server patch (<a href='http://www.natural-selection.org/' target='_blank'>Go here</a> and scroll down to downloads). Yes, this is a server patch but it fixes all client side consistency problems if you don't have custom models installed.
Hope this helps you all out.

First I'll list the short version, then go into a way to make you own filters
Short Version:
Open ASE and goto Filter->New
Pick some name and fill it in
Paste this in the big center box:
<!--c1--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->1 if mp_consistency == "1" remove<!--c2--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->
At the bottom where it has radio buttons with Normal Filter and Modifier, select Modifier
(the mod type in the text field doesnt seem to make a difference to me, im new to this also ;p)
Now hit OK
Your filter should be in a folder at the bottom balled My Filters
Long Version:
Open ASE and goto Filter->New
Pick some name and fill it in
Now hit the wizard button, this will open a wizard that can help you with making your own filters. To make a filter to check some cvar select custom numeric, then type in the variable in the first box, and determine if it should be greater, than equal to, less than, and all that and you can turn it on.
You can make filters to do lots of things like check for public_slots_free to not be 0 and more.
EDIT: Spelling errors in the code are bad!
Many thanks - I'd tried working it out myself a while ago, but got nowhere.

I'm making a webby on models, skins and sounds. Do you mind if I put this on it somewhere? I'd put your name on it.
(Yes I know you don't have copywrite on it or anything, but it's nice to ask)
EDIT: OopS, didn't know I quoted something.
1 if mp_consistency != "0" remove
I have not tried wha was originally posted here but this works best for me
open ASE, goto Filter - New.
on top is the name for the filter, up to u what u call it.
then fill this in the empty space:
1 if mp_consistency < "1" goto 3
2 remove
3 if game ~== "ns" goto 5
4 remove
then hit OK, and on the left side of screen, all teh way down, there should be a new filter for ya. just highlight and refresh.
i'v used custom counter-strike models and only 'bad' ones force consistency on them, most work fine on all servers.
custom pistol model, creating a lan-game, and it boots off the p_hg.mdl for consistancy....
anyone know how to fix, or having the same problem?
If you have the HD space, you can do this too <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
Actually, no.. on v1.04 servers if consistency is on, it won't let me join servers since I have replacement sound effects in my NS install (I have a custom marine voice pack) and I get a file consistency check on one of the wave files.

Hey, now that's an idea. I should give that a go with PAKExplorer (I'm assuming that's what you used)
