    yeah it started to lag about 2 min to the end of the game. then at the rotation we ended up with an

    "attempted to run VA() string..." or something to that effect. never seen something like that before. im guessing it has to do with the map rotation file? but then again i havnt really messed with the configs for about 4 months.

    It was a string limit issue. The map packs did not work and caused a grossly exceed string error. They have since all been renamed (the actual map names) to uan01, uan02, etc. All custom maps will be redownloaded.

    You also might comb through the /main folder and delete old crud from other servers like other maps you never play or incompleted downloads - just to make things look cleaner and run more efficiently.

    Other that that, all should be fine. See you in Port Royal!

    ummm.....arrrrgh?
