other than that, when i load up the game when running the server on my same pc, i'll be playing, die once, then i stop existing in the game. i see people moving around on the radar (at leas that works) and they are talking in chatbox, but everyone is playing on what seems like a different server. i see a model of each person from a certain time in the game, and they don't move. i quit and re-enter the game. works fine, then i'll go into a building or die, and it happens again. it's very annoying, and happens to people on my server, too.
ppl keep getting disconnected. i have my ports open, and i'm not kicked off the internet b/c aim doesn't sign off, but everyone leaves and re-enters.
and the game seems to crash at random moments, leaving a black screen infront of me. i see my mouse, but that's it. i have to restart my pc, and explain why everyone is pissed.
