max_cvars issue

[Ninja.rT]

I am constantly being automatically exited out or ET because of a max_cvars issues. This usually occurs when run a cfg that has yet to be loaded. Its usually either my spawn timer config, or my class selector config. After I exec either one (one, then the other) I am kicked out of the game and receive the following in the ET Console:

MAX_CVARS


Is there any way that I could fix this? Thank you.

[nUllSkillZ]

I think that's the problem:

Warning: can't load menu, already maximum number of menu's loaded (128)

Although not sure what are you doing.

[Ninja.rT]

Could it be the server? Because I tried the same thing on a different server and I didn't get kicked. Is there a server command you could put in its config to prevent this?

[Chruker]

I usually see those menu errors, when I disconnect from a server which has the WhaleClient running.

So I would start by removing the WhaleClient-1_2final.pk3 and see if the problem still exists.

Could you perhaps post your two scripts. Although it seems strange that they should cause too many cvars to be generated. My class script creates around 50 cvars.

That said, I couldn't find anywhere in the ET SDK the size of the MAX_CVARS.

EDIT: Quake 3 source has MAX_CVARS defined to 1024, however my ET reports that I have 1084 cvars in my config, so they must have changed the limit.

[Ninja.rT]

Wow...I got rid of the Whaleclient pk3 and now I ram on it and its fine. Our server used to have Whaleclient, but the moderator got rid of it because he felt we didn't need it. How do you find out how many cvars you have? All I know is that I get kicked for that crap. If you want, I could still post the configs. But thank you. =) Your help was very much appreciated.

[Chruker]

Just type /cvarlist

At the end of the list it tells you the number.

[Ninja.rT]

It says I have 975 cvars once I have everything executed and ready. Why was that too much?

[Chruker]

I might have something to do with the whaleclient and the malfunctioning menu scripts in there. Anyway you should be fine now.

[Ninja.rT]

Thank you very much, Chrucker. I've been trying to find a solution to this for some time now. Thank you for taking the time to help me. If I need help with ET, I know where to go now. =) Bye.

[<Your>Father<CZ>]

EDIT: Quake 3 source has MAX_CVARS defined to 1024
And Wolf:ET v 2.60 has maximum 2048 cvars.
Just read readme for patch 2.60.

[Chruker]

Thx, for the info. That hadn't occured to me :-)
