[BUG] Unable to progress with quests!
Hi, me again! The guy who couldn't create a 2 player LAN server! This time I'm having trouble in a lot of multiplayer maps that allow me to join jazz_bar (half of the servers are password locked and a good fourth of the ones that aren't are outdated). Everytime I make progress on various quests and leave the server, upon rejoining I'm unable to talk to the cats, even if I have enough props to fulfill their respective quests. They just have the post-quest cutscene bubble above their heads, and when interacted with they play a random unlocked cutscene for that character..

The Bartender allows me to browse her shop for tools and upgrades, but her unfinished/finished quest dialog isn't available, as it defaults to random cutscenes. I'm worried at this point, because I've gone to so many different servers and progressed to around Tier 5 and 6 quest lines, filled one (or, in more depressing cases, all four,) and ended up being unable to continue. I want to avoid completing the game until I can get the true "good" ending.

So far, it's happened on three servers I used to frequent, and I've made it a point to abandon any servers running NG+ or additional addons that might wreck the game, but it seems that even servers running straight vanilla Jazztronauts have this problem. I myself don't have any addons enabled besides the core required three plus the Wowozela and Outfitter. Yet another speedbump in an otherwise great game, I guess.

Unfortunately, private servers are beyond our control. It sounds like those servers have already finished an iteration of the game and this has bugged somehow with our new patch. Are you able to do solo player yet?

Not yet, I can get through jazz_intro and into jazz_bar, and even queue up workshop maps and ride the trolley, but as soon as it gets to the last few bars for loading the new map, my game shuts down. It doesn't even output crash logs, since it's technically a freeze and not a genuine crash. Also, loading pre-installed workshop maps and Half Life 2/CS:S/TF2 maps gets me one bar further than loading from jazz_bar before freezing. I'd be happy to provide info as best I can to help fix this problem!

Oh geeze, that's strange! Can you try clearing your cache for me?

Cleared my cache (deleted the cache folder, as I've been told), booted it up, chose a poorly-made map to start off with, and froze at the usual place. I was able to freeze on a frame that said there were errors in the upper left, but it doesn't save error logs, as I mentioned. I'm figuring the script error has something to do with one of the 8 addons I have installed.

Oh darn. Possibly? Try uninstalling them and seeing if that helps.

I figured out what the problem was, thanks to another thread having the same problem! Apparently, opting to use the Chromium beta prevents you from loading into maps, so opting out of it (default Garry's Mod) allows you to load into worlds! Consider my problem solved, for the time being!
