I played yesterday with no issue and now it takes forever to setup game and then when it switches maps it just hangs.

Move them to another file if you like.. and let the game download the MW2 mods and maps again. That usually takes care of conflicts, corrupt files, and such. That sounds like what you have going on. You can also download our XI downloader and set it up to download files when you are not playing. It's really a cool utility. http://www.xtremeidiots.com/fora_forum.asp?fid=42 Awards

This time I decided not to use your XIdownloader and just try downloading off the server. I have the correct patch info and punkbuster is up to date. I load the MW2 server and once again it just hangs at "Setting up Game". I made sure I deleted all the files and uninstalled the game before a fresh install. I think the problem may actually be on the server side. I have np's at all with the other freezetag servers. Also I just noticed that in the XIdownloader options for servers, the MW2 server shows "Game Type" as SAB and the other freezetag servers as TDM. Does that have anything to do with it??

It's driving me nuts. I have no idea how it worked fine one day and now it just hangs there ar the "Setting up Game". There has to be some kind of setting that changed somewhere. Like I said I did everything I could on my side, even as far as a full reinstall.

I have downloaded all your other mods np,yet when I try to join your MW2 freeztag server it just hangs. While you state I seem to be the only person with this issue you are mainly talking about everyone that reg plays the server and not any new people. There may be a issue in the server upload. I get Awaiting connection till about 6 seconds and then it just hangs at "Setting up Game". If it is a corrupted file or map that I have I am getting it only from your downloader. Anyone that currently plays the server wouldn't have the corrupted file since they dl'ed it well before I did. I also tried to just dl off the server and it still just hangs,which brings me to believe it is the server and not my game.

That is why I say it cannot be on my side. If I am waiting on the server how is it my side? If it is the maps then how can I play the server if it is giving me bad maps. I did notice that in the downloader " Compare Existing file sizes" I checked that then ran it again for the MW2 server. The map "mp_selo" came up with two files. I then noticed after that did not fix anything that when I tried dl'ed off the server again it got stuck on that map "mp_selo" I can erase my mods and map 50 million times,but it wont fix it if there is a corrupted file being installed.

I actually got in and played a full game. I just waited out the "Setting up Game" part took like 2 minutes and then the map loaded. I played a full set,but when the map changed it just hung on "Waiting for server to load map" I tab+alt'ed out and looked at xfire it showed my ping on the server as 999. I went back into game and it still was waiting for the map to load so then I just cntrl/alt/deleted so that I could close it out and when I did that I got this error that said my iw3mp.exe stopped working. It showed both my COD4 and that iw3mp.exe in my task manager.

I know it isn't my connection to the server because I ping that server pretty low compared to most players there (70). Like I have said in the begining I played the server with np's about a week agao then tried playing a couple days after and haven't been able to play more than one map without having an issue. I think the problem is in the maps, but there is nothing I can do to change what maps are having a problem.

And I have DX11, I just think I am going to give up on this mod. There doesn't seem to be an answer for it.

I reinstalled it all again and still having only issue with MW2 server. I was able to get on finally and play 2 maps and then it loads up mp_selo map and nothing. First it tell me waiting for server to load map and just hangs there. So I close out the program and load the map from the downloader and then it just hangs on setting up game. Eventually it tells me server diconected because I am just sitting in limbo. Do you change maps ever on this server? I honestly believe it has to do with a bad map file. There is nothing left on my side that I can change.
