    i am getting this error when trying to connect to the server.

    CL_parsegamestate: bad command byte

    from what ive been able to find out is that it would pop up occasionally in UO. anyways it is some problem with the maps, but only with custom maps. as far as i know we dont have any custom maps so im thinking the problem is on my end. im gona do a fresh install and see if it clears it up.

    It means that too much is going on in the game .... and that activision needs to put out a patch.

    ok it seems i run into the problem on "trainstation". if i am already playing and the map switched to trainstaion i am fine. jumping in the middle of the game gives me the error though.

    most likely just a glitch with this version of the mod, but i have no clue what it could be. its not a custom map so its nothing he could have changed there...
