"Client world model is NULL"

[Carpincho-Nine]

I get this message while trying to enter in the Merrill's Marauders servers, I tried to delete the dod_downloads folder before restarting Steam, as stated in previous discussions, but it just didn't work for me.

Can you try the Steam Support instructions in post 2 of below thread, and let me know if it works.

BTW are you using any beta versions of software in steam?

It didn't work, but thanks for trying to help

I got the same freaking thing, hopefully this game is not going to be dead or extinct.

Is the problem only with Merrill's Marauders servers?

Yes

Can you try downloading the custom maps from 17buddies instead and see if that works?

17buddies.net

What exactly would I have to do?

Is this error coming up on standard maps like Anzio, Avalanche, and Caen?

Yes, and only in the Merrill's Marauders servers.

Weird just been on and all 3 servers work ok. Can you try making a log to see which file is corrupted?


Start dod (double click in library)
Type developer 2 in console
Type condebug in console
Join Merrill's Marauders
When it crashes you should get a text file called qconsole.log inside your half-life folder

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Half-Life

I`m not sure where the dod files are on a mac but try replacing them with the ones from this zip.

if you do a file search for p_smokegrenade.mdl it should give you the folder location on your pc.
