[Sgt Igoes Platte]

Well the good news is that the weapon sounds are back (they disappeared after I posted the original note above). Still no taunts however.
oOo:
Bizzare. Anymore ideas....Anyone?

btw, Joe, that Registry Cleaner is a great little app. Thanks for the tip and thanks for the reinstall cheat sheet.

I'm going to rinse and repeat on the reinstall this evening to see if I've done anything wrong. I'm also gonna wipe all the pk3's to see if maybe one of those is causing the prob. I've downloaded a lot of map files lately. Not sure if any of them could be interfering.

Any other ideas are more than welcome.
