on some servers there's this strange error

when i'm observing a match, there is no problem.

but as soon as i join the red, blue, or yellow team, and the match starts

the entire consol will fill up with "full info string etc......" over and over again, making it impossible to read any legitimate information that pops up. when i ask what the problem is in the server, i usually get kicked.

any ideas?

type setinfo.
it should give a list of values. some of em simply arn't needed.
you can clear some of them out by typing:
setinfo FIELDNAME ""
where FIELDNAME is the name of the field you're trying to clear.
some fields that arn't vital:
msg, spectator, noaim, the 'switch' ones.
some of the values are the defaults anyway (any that are set to 0!)
just clear em out. you only have a 192 byte limit.

the kicking is an automatic thing from your client not updating the team/colours/skin. strim out some fields and you'll be fine. Assuming that your client hasn't clogged up your infos with random useless * fields...

196 bytes, last ezq even gives you space used on space free (114/196 for ex).

that was happening to me with nQuake as well, and then my team and enemy colors started both showing as blue. what i did was go through my config, anything that had 'skin' in the line i removed, and then i redid the enemy and teamskin in the nQuake options in-game. it stopped the insane amount of spamming, and it fixed my team/enemy colors. i still get the info string once every couple of minutes, but it's not nonstop spam like it was, and it only does it in the console now. you can try that if you haven't fixed it yet.
