Custom Maps download then Plutonium crashes
-
I can download custom maps from the servers running them, but once the download is done I just back to the Plutonium bootstrap screen and everything freezes is there a fix for this? Standard maps work with no issue as well as the custom maps from Plutonium, but not the custom DLC.

I should say it appears that the maps are downloading. I get a progression bar then when it gets close to the end of the download, see above!!!

Ok, , so no responses yet, but I did figure out part of my problem. I missed the DLC portion of the plutonium installation on top of the game itself. Now it seems like I am about 50 / 50 on crashed when it comes to custom maps. Some will download and put me into the server just fine, others will just dump me and crash. I may be wrong but it seems to occur most often when the downloading map is associated with a mod downloading as well. I may be wrong, but those are the files I see downloading.
I apologize if this is an old problem that has already been addressed, but I couldn't find anything anywhere.

[LOD] Scarecrow this seems to be your issue
Cannot join servers with mods (game window never starting)
Stay in the main menu or close your game if you're already stuck without the game window opened.
Then run this bat file https://github.com/Resxt/Utilities/releases/download/latest/IW5-delete-mods-folder.bat
Or if you want to run the command manually yourself copy/paste the command in this link in a cmd https://github.com/Resxt/Utilities/blob/main/Games/Plutonium/IW5-delete-mods-folder.bat
Until Plutonium fixes that issue you'll have to do that when the issue occursIf it doesn't fix it then be very clear about what happens exactly or record a video. Note that if it works it's a temporary solution that needs to be done regularly but it's an issue on Plutonium's side or server side not you. Most likely Plutonium

Great, thanks for the info. I will run this and see what happens.
