Hello! I'm trying to run Quake 3 on Steam Deck and certain maps won't load for skirmishes. I receive this error instead. This happens with both recommended Proton versions from ProtonDB (5.13-6 and 3.16-9). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    • The error messages comes from this file in the source code. It looks like the client is trying to parse entities from the server but the readcount is greater than the cursize in the messages. I am not an expert but I believe there could be a mismatch between the versions of your client and the servers you are trying to connect to.
