cl_parsepacket entities error

[theevilsithlord]

all of a sudden i seem to get this error while playing quake 3 and jedi academy... ive heard of others with this problem but not of a resolution. The only new thing ive installed are ati's 3.10 catalysts, but it began before then, and i dont think it has to do with updating the video drivers...

5. How do I fix the CL_ParsePacketEntities Error?

This error occurs in multiplayer if you are using the cracked executable. You need the executable from the
Jedi Outcast CD and not the bootlegged one. Shame on you.

I wish you had come to us sooner..... it's your network card drivers or the card itself. Usually, a simple update of the drivers will take care of that error. It's your network card not communicating fast enough that creates the error and kicks all the players. Could have saved you a reformat.......
