No he meant the error you mentioned, did you extracted Data.pk2 ?

I know the exact reason why it closes after it waits for a little while.
INCIDENT INVESTIGATION:
Here is how I found out what I was missing.
-Installed hypercam and took a video of the window.
-I ran the gameserver and it waited a little while and instantly closed without any other errors.

I played the recording and skipped to the frame just before it shut down and found a reference to the file inside data folder was not found.

Then I checked the data folder on the server side (it was something like /res/navmesh/blablablbalabla ) and tadaa it was not there at all.

RESULT:
The data set I downloaded was not the expected dataset by the gameserver.

REASON:
If you downloaded everything from Zikor1337's guide then you will most likely face this problem.

HOWTO SOLVE the ISSUE:
Find another data set . Download it and place it inside server DATA folder..

If you could wait for a while I could upload a working dataset for zikor's guide.

All the best,
Tychus

EDIT:
- Zikor is a really cool dude. I didnt mean to hurt his work.We worked quite a while together anyways.

- You can also use your data.pk2 as a source of dataset from the client I suppose (correct me if I m wrong please)

Well, Yea . Sometimes you will face that problem if you use the files from my guide. But not always...

Anyway, if you can, I kindly ask you to upload an working Data folder and send me the link through PM and I will modify it . ^_^
