Can't join in CSS game??

iMacMart · 22 Feb 2009 at 20:14

Guys

Haven't played in ages but everytime D2 loads up I'm a camera in the top right corner of B bomb site and I can't join T's or CT's then I disconnect from the server??

It's really beginning to bug me?

What am I doing wrong? grrrr

Are you on wireless? Sounds like a problem I get, its to do with "Received fragment out of order". Look in your console when your in game to see if that's it, and if so the only thing I can find that actually fixes it is by going to a wired connection or changing your router. I have also heard something about changing the firmware but that didn't work for me either, but it comes and goes with me so it isn't affecting me most of the time.

No mate hard wired to router?

Is it just Dust2 or one particular server?

No seems like all? I can get in some but lag about when my ping says 23

Could be some sort of corruption, tried verifying the integrity of the game cache under the game properties?

Yup all is well?

I seem to join the game as a camera? Can't join one team or the other then I get disconnected?

Got the error below just before I disconnect?

Warning: using WorldTwoTextureBlend on a non-displacement surface.
Support for this will go away soon.

Guys I went into Steam games right clicked counter strike source and clicked "delete local content" I then reinstalled and I still have the same issue??

Is it any better to go via control panel add/remove?

This is really beginning to to annoy me now

only wanna play some CSS ...

Any other advice? As stated I can get in the game, get stuck as a camera (on all maps) then i get disconnected from the server???

Thanks

The total uninstall and reinstall seems (fingers crossed) to have fixed this issue?
