Hamachi server no longer working, worked fine a few hours ago
Ealier today I learned how to succesfully host a Hamachi based lan server in L4D2 through console commands. We were able to play 5 full survival matches on two different custom maps (Nacht der untoten and Kino der toten) with 2 other friends just fine. When another friend, the 4th player, joined the game my game crashed instantly, disconnecting all players. Since then I cannot host any custom maps, vanilla works fine. I tried verifying game cache with no luck.

Here's the method I use:

] sv_lan 0
] sv_consistency 0
] sv_allow_lobby_connect_only 0
] ip 25.18.130.251
] net_start
] map cod_z_kino_der_toten //or whichever map


This is what I get in the console when I try the first time:

Host_Error: CMapLoadHelper::Init, unable to open maps/cod_z_kino_der_toten.bsp

CAsyncWavDataCache: 2 .wavs total 0 bytes, 0.00 % of capacity
Dropped Yeti from server (Disconnect by user.)
BinkOpen( e:\steam library\steamapps\common\left 4 dead 2\left4dead2\media\l4d2_background03.bik )


If I try to launch a second time the game crashes instantly and I get:

Engine Error

Map_LoadModelGuts: Map with no textinfo, maps/cod_z_kino_der_toten.bsp (or whichever map it is)


Any help would be greatly appreciated.
