Hmm, I went through some troubleshooting w/ exfane today after his tf2 failed to run after a serverside initiated client crash(if that makes sense)

tried all the usual shit, end result was a full steam + content reinstall :o

but for the rest of y'all, make sure you validate your files
tf2>properties>local files>verify integrity of game cache...

Helped for some, maybe not in your individual cases, but cant hurt to do it

The crashes y'all had, arena maps or normal. can you recall?
did ppl crash at the same time? (can check logs to find out, but man am I feeling lazy these last few days)

update/fix 8/20/2008
Fixed an invalid skin crash on TF weapons

Fixed a viewmodel related crash when switching classes away from Medic

Fixed not getting the Arena team menu after watching the intro movie on Arena maps

Fixed some problems with localized text
nothing specific about mem errors, but they dont always list every little bugfix.
Fingers crossed, most y'all are happy-out now.

New update causing crash on melee due to melee mode is result of striping players of all thier weapons but melee ones wich is resulting "bad animations" apear on players that is "fixed" :P

This kinda ruined my melee map projects

Ever since the heavy update whenever the map changes, I get stuck on the "server is changing map" page for aaaaaaaaaaaages, before it finally loads. Steam friends is unresponsive also.
Don't really have any more details than that, everything's up to date and it worked fine before. I usually end up joining about 1.5 minutes into the map.

Nobody else get this?
