try overwriting your tremulous.(x86|ub|exe) with the one from tjw's website, if it works, then your client got corrupted somehow, if it doesn't then the server is probably sending you garbage data (or the data is getting messed up somewhere in the middle).

Ok let's plan it out. Asva, you are nub, go sit on rets, I will build, you two go feed like hell, you go pwn their asses, and everyone else camp in the hallway, roger?
the dretch bites.

try cl_allowDownload 0 if its a server where you needn't download anything, or if you already have everything needed to connect.

Try to avoid balance mod servers and stuff like that. Until you know how to stop getting garbage from servers, I suggest to go to a regular tjw mod server.
