Chances are Neph is right. I've been running his plugin for L4D and I get the map timeout issue every single time.

I recompiled my plugin for L4D at the request of many, but valve maintains stats uploading is asynchronous in L4D and hence not broken. Since they looked into it and fixed it for TF2, I'm guessing that it isn't the issue on L4D either, sodon't rely too much on my plugin. If it doesn't seem to do anything, it probably isn't. - Neph On 07/05/2009 04:42 PM, Tony Paloma wrote: > He posted that it was fixed for TF2, which it is.
