Monster. That happens if you've exceeded the VPP file limit. I'm increasing the limit so this wont happen. Temporarily you can remove some maps from user_maps/mutli . Thankyou for the report.
Can someone who has experienced the freezing bug please PM me asap. |

Better than that, you can use PF.exe for direct launch, is the first thing I check when PF was released, I test it fast, but it look to work great, nice! 
BTW, for your older reply about mod support;
Quoting GhostKid |
Omg. Still no mod support ? .
I was going to play ISM. But noticed i still don't have a mod option for a dedicated server. |
You can do it with PF.exe or PFLauncher.exe. About the "mod box", TrotSkie tell me he forget, he may probably add it one day, no confirmation...
With PF.exe
As usual, cmd line can be added to shortcut properties/target -mod modname -dedicated dm
With PFLauncher.exe
In PF 'Dedicated Server' tab, change port 7756 to 7755 and add right after it, add -mod modname
Dedicated Server work, but for now it have little bug...
Client user bug with or without Mod:
1- When Clutter object die, 1 extra explosion effect are added. (which can be weird)
2- Ammo picked don't show "yellow center string" .tbl, that tell you picked something. I test in dm01 - Lobby, I saw the 'C4 Charges' model instead of the 'Scope_Assault_Riffle' model, which was impossible to have.
Client user bug with Mod:
3- Custom Goggle Mask doesnt work
4- I had difficulty to make DMG on Clutter object with 'Riot_Stick', can also literaly stop to make DMG on Clutter, also noted a deley on explosion when succeed to broke it, also on broken glass.
To be clear for what is above, PF work very well when the player host, but instability happen for Client user.
Oh & boOoo!... for RunMap Players that complaint PF Spectate, the nice addition Free Cam Spectate was removed because of You! ... boOooo  ...

Thanks Morgoth. . Though running the mod as client seems to be a problem with me. when adding "-mod [ISM]" (without the quotes) to the command bar in pflauncher, it just launches normal RF. Weird. added -mod [ISM] to pf.exe shortcut worked, but it doesnt work for my laptop wich uses vista. (ctd after loading screen. ) same files as me cause its a copy of my RF folder.
EDIT: Seems like ISM doesnt work on vista. tryed on my moms EEE pc and it works there. I hate vista.
Major Bug: I had a dedicated server up and running. 4 people in the server (me included.) the map ends, map changes, everyone (except me) gets kicked out of the game.
They got banned somehow, i look at my banlist.txt but it's empty, and i have no idea how to unban them. (they werent cheating, Ask Sedo for details.). Yeah i can reinstall but i'm not in the mood to do that lol because that would require a server restart.
Minor Bug: The command line bar doesnt work with me. i have to add the command to the port number if i want a mod to start. (when starting up client.) |

Version 2.1 released (November 6th)
Your game should automatically update. If not, you can download a manual update file here (overwrite the purebeta.dll you currently have). I think (hope) it was just people who were running the beta version 2.1 who crashed, but please contact me if that is not the case.
Changes:
Packfile space has been increased:
Previously, RF could load a maximum of 13500 files from vpps and upon reaching this limit in having lots of custom maps installed, the game would exit giving an error message "Out of packfile space". You can type GetVpps in console to view your current VPP/Packfile status. If you have 256/256 vpp files loaded, you will need to remove some until you have less than 256, or the automap downloader will not function. NOTE: The 256 VPP file limit still exists, but will be removed next update.
Player Mute:
You can now press F5 and then click on a player name to mute all their chat messages. You will still be able to view their chat in the console.
Coloured Server Names:
Servers running the most recent version of Pure Faction will now show up in a different colour.
Freezing Fix:
Some of you (mostly P4 users) complained about getting intermittent freezes with version 2.0. This bug should not happen anymore.
Automatic Map Downloader Fix:
Maps with IDs longer than 3 characters were not downloading correctly. This has been fixed.
Crashing Bug:
Fixed a bug where if you were killed in damaging water, there was a small chance of a crash.
Please report any bugs with the new version as soon as possible, as im going away for the weekend in 18 hours. |

No problem
Quoting GhostKid |
when adding "-mod [ISM]" (without the quotes) to the command bar in pflauncher, it just launches normal RF. |
For client PF user, it supposed to work... Incase, don't forget to start your cmd with a "space"... I don't know what can happen with [ ] symbole in PF, probably not the problem, but you can try another mod in last resort.
Just to be sure, for the dedicated server port with PFLauncher, it need to be 7755, same thing for client. If the PF.exe way worked, PFLauncher way should also work, normally... 7755 -mod modname
Quoting GhostKid |
The command line bar doesnt work with me. i have to add the command to the port number if i want a mod to start. (when starting up client.) |
For dedicated server, the cmd line box in first tab is not related to it, but again, is supposed to work with client user, at least for a big majority for people.
About vista, laptop and your major bug, you should post detail about your problem & spec CPU to TrotSkie, by PM or in PF main furum NebulaMods... If is the case, also cmd & dedicated miscellaneous bug.
Version 2.1 released, nice

Because of colorbots that could detect the fixed/solid color. |

Good update Trotskie. Made it through the evening without a freezeup. Cheers! 
Edit: Oh, btw, the auto-updater didn't work, had to DL the file. |

Suggestion
If is the only reason, can we put only red color gradation for heat live player, and same thing for blue dead corp... It will be nice to keep RF root and same time follow the logic of scanner for both color. Is not a must, but it will be coOler, better focus on bug for now.
Bug Report
1- Auto-updater didn't work

Same thing for me, stuck in "waiting join status", when join and refresh are triggered, Ctrl-Alt-Del was needed with difficulties to shutdown PF.
2-PF freeze now when trying to join LAN Edit: with mod
Even before seeing or clicking the server, Ctrl-Alt-Del is needed with difficulties to shutdown PF.
Edit: Im 99.9% sure that it come from the new PF server color in browser
I also PM TrotSkie about it goober, I will maybe check to create a NM account, is just I have habit to use L4Y and want to continue to use it.
Nice to see update, fix & addition,

Well, lol, to many people ask me now, I think I have no choice, I register to NM, the jOb is done, here's my list I encourage people to participate.
About PF freeze now when trying to join LAN
I didn't had the time to test normal LAN server to specify, mod/only or not, before reply. I test it now, normal server also work for me, bug happen with mods.
*Im 99.9~% sure, that it come from the new PF server color in browser Which is a nice must addition for the future of PF online, only need to be compatible with mod.
