Your (insert map name) differs from the server

[jetway1122]

Please i need some help, I have a server with bbgameservers and when I load any custom maps say like de_losttemple they will work for about a day but then magically the next day EVERYone that tries to connect to the server with that map loaded will get the map differs from the server error. So after investagating for months now, I know it has to be something with the server. im having this problem with inferno, and milita as well. please someone help, Im tried searching and everything.

Linux box, mani-admin 1.2n

I have never heard of something like that. Maybe they could try making all the maps read only.

See the weird thing is that, after this happens to the maps, last date modified doesnt differ from the date i uploaded it (or even the time). So how can this be possible ?

Is it in any way possible that it's not the same version of the map?

Try deleting the maps from the clients, install the map on the server and download it from the server. Maybe it solves the problem.

I have never seen this before so I'm not sure what's causing this.

Well when I do what is posted above it works of course, but this forces everyone to delete the map then ........ lol Then when I try to join another server with the map from my server it is now different from ever other server. So that cant be a solution, Ive seen other ppl post this before but no solution to it. This is driving me insane, Im not stupid when it comes to servers, been dealing with them for years, but never seen this. Any input, anything to try please post it.

Are you sure you have the same versionof the map as the other servers..

for example I have dust_pcg, i know 3 servers that run that map but each one is running a different version.

100% because we have the server full with say losttemple and everything works fine until the end of the day then the map has that error again ?!?!?!?! Its sooooooooooo confusing.

I am having the same problem my friend and I too am with bbgameservers. I actually made a post about it today on SEVERAL forums, including here;

Not only does lost temple not work, it appears to me that any map over 18megs in size doesnt work. Even militia.bsp which is a default map. I am able to get small customs to work, like fy_iceworl_real no problem. its the larger ones that fail.
