I'm getting the same error with QE, Map 2, single player. Warning: Table soundprecache is full, can't add ambient/levels/streetwar/city_battle19.wav Host_Error: CEngineSoundServer::PrecacheSound: 'ambient/levels/streetwar/city_battle19.wav' overflow
I was able to run it five months ago. This has been a problem for people in the past before this update (in August), but it didn't affect me until now. I wonder what the actual cause is....
