Hello,

Im trying to help setup a CoD2 Server Rented From GameServers.com. One thing that Im not able to figure out about is this. The Server is Running Fully Stock Files atm(I removed all Mods and restarted it) it Runs just fine and Normal if you also have no Mod Files in your Main Directory, But as soon as I add A Rifle Only Mod file to my own CoD2 Main Directory and Join the Server we are renting it forces my only available Choices via the Weapon screen as the Rifle mod and of course when I select said weapon I dont spawn with it because the Mod is Only client side and not running on the server so that weapon is not available and I spawn with nothing. So My question is how do I get the Server to "ignore" mod files in a Clients own CoD2/Main Directory if said mod file dosent correspond to any mods currently running on the server, I dont want to have to have people Delete their Files in their Main Directory just to play. I can join all other servers Just fine with this Rifle Only Mod file in my directory and it dosent have any effect if the server is not running that mod.

any help would be greatly appreciated, we are trying to get the CoD2 section of the clan up and running.

servers IP is 8.12.70.16:28960 if you join it and see what you can say.
thanks again if you know how to do this

Edit: Seems all Client Side mods seem to have an effect when they shouldnt, I added a Force AutoAssign mod to my Main Directory and when I join the Server I can only auto assign even though the server is not running this mod. Again I can join other servers with this mod in my CoD2 Folder and if that server is not running this mod it has no effect.

If you are going to allow the use of non-stock files that are held in the main directory, you cannot run the server in pure mode. Leastways, I think I'm right.

Thanks for the reply ...but It seemed to fix the Problem to actually switch to Server into Pure Mode. This actually caused the server to only see the Mods corresponding to matching server mods and any other mods in my Main folder are now ignored as they should be. As soon as I switched the Server back to "sv_pure 0" and joined I had the problem again, It would show the Rifle Mod Weapon Screen instead of the Stock weapon screen in witch the server was running so I coulnt select a weapon. I mean you cant expect people to go delete all these other files that Other servers forced them to download just to play on my server. Anyways thanks for help go ahead and close this thread if need be.

again sv_pure "1" seemed to fix this problem
