Your server is COD2 version 1.0, and you have exceeded the 16k gamestate. There are only 2 things you can do:

1. try to remove a lot of stuff - weapons, fx, and materials/image files - to try to get it down under the 16k gamestate;

2 Upgrade your server to COD2 version 1.3 and you will then have 128k of gamestate to play with.

The COD2 1.2 patch was broken. The gamestate was supposed to have been increase to 128k, but in fact it was still at 16k. Also, Punkbuster was broken. This was posted by fourzerotwo just before the release of the 1.3 test, acknowledging that the gamestate update and PunkBuster were both broken in the 1.2 patch:

The last update on this was that it is in testing and will be released when finished testing. There have been no further updates to this news because there have been no further updates. There were some issues discovered during testing, which is why we test updates before they are released, which have caused it to under go further testing.

It has finished testing however, and will be released when ready. Of course we never give out release dates or time frames so please don't expect one.

This update, as stated before will include the fix for the issue keeping Modders from using the increased 128k gamestate as well as a fix for the PB Guid issue.

As for clearing stuff out of your mod in order to try to get the gamestate down, it is essentially FX and models you have to cull back on. You could try doing what we did back in 2006 which was to edit all of the stock maps's FX, by turning them all off. That helps. Do the same with any cusotm maps you intend to run.

Models - this includes models in custom weapon files. If your mod has custom weapons, you will essentially be forced to cut some from your mod.

Hi thanks for your reply.

But i cant delete models/fx because i have cod2 zom mod on 1.0 and rank system, and mutch weapons for rank..

Maybe if i will delete all custom weapons from weapons menu will help?

Idk... i am thinking to switch to 1.2 because i think its 128k gamestate.

Maybe exist any patch to 1.0 or 1.2 to repair 16k gamestate bug?

Thx for answer

There is no known legitimate fix for 1.0 or 1.2. I know of some programmers who have hacked the executable and fixed it that way, but I wont recommend it as it is illegal.

BTW - the only difference between 1.0 and 1.2 is some new maps (Rostov and Rhine) and some changes to the stock gametypes. Other than that, in terms of the actual game limits etc, there is no difference.

Thanks for reply :)

One significant difference its fast DL on 1.2

I have 2 more questions for you...

Scripts can do badcomand byte? or only models/fx/weapons ?

It's illegal because the mod tools EULA says it is:

Quote:
- New Game Materials shall not contain modifications to any COM, EXE or DLL files or to any other executable Product files.


And, yes, scripts can lead to exceeding gamestate when gamestate is already being thrashed for other reasons. But the main culprits are FX and models.

Like Tally said, models are counting heavily to the gamestate

you can lower the gamestate by forcing only 1 playermodel for ex. the american/hunter side if you use the stock models. american models take like 7 player- and 7 extra headmodels
