my freind is getting a strange error msg in q3 offline while using mapman,im stumped and google draws a blank.
the message is "bad item index 36 on entity" after it crashes
strange error
what's mapman?
sounds like he's having a problem with a mod or a map.
if he's not running a mod, one way to diagnose the problem would be to create a folder at the same level as baseq3 and move all of the non-ID files in baseq3 to it (anything that wouldn't have come with a clean, patched install). now run the game and see if the same error occurs (it shouldn't).
if you don't see the error message again, move the files back in a few at a time until you do - then delete or replace that file.
if it's a mod, do the same thing for the mod folder - after checking on any forums for that mod.
there's probably a much quicker/better way of working it out, but that should work.
