I keep trying to play Eraser, but I keep getting bumped back to the console with the following error: ERROR: NET_GetPacket: WSAECONNRESET from 200.171.37.165:1257 I also get this error when running a listen server. But I don't understand why I'd get it when playing an *offline* game with Eraser-bots? It happens with both Eraser, and EraserULTRA. Any ideas? -- -- "I see what the nhh-stars do, because so fair is their shape; it is well for me with them and it is well for them. I am a nhh-star, the companion of a nhh-star, I become a nhh-star, and I will not suffer for ever." EvilBill - http://www.evilbill.co.uk My Quake2 FTP site: ftp://65.30.181.223/quake/EvilBill/

They won't work in single player mode, and that's the default mode if you do not set deathmatch 1.

Been playing Eraser bots since 1998 and never had to set deathmatch 1 on a shortcut or in the console. -- -- "I see what the nhh-stars do, because so fair is their shape; it is well for me with them and it is well for them.
