@Bartek S -Perhaps you should give the command line option I listed a try and see if it helps you while E. Olsen continues working on his solution at the same time. Two fronts is better than one. I'd be very curious to see if it helps you. It resolved it for me.
I'm currently using that command line parameter as follows (-num_edicts 1024) and haven't had a crash for no free edicts in over a year on the servers I run under Windows 2008. Prior to that I was getting them every other day without restarting the servers every morning. Just a suggestion. If you do, please let me know if it works for you. Thanks and best of luck. I know how frustrating it is! On Wed, Feb 24, 2016 at 6:20 AM, Bartek S <[email protected]> wrote: > Mind sharing the solution?
