TFC error Info String what the hell is that?

[janordy]

I tried to join up the match tonight when we were short and all I got is a error when I typed in the password for the server. I use ingame console and typed "password *******" and I get a error from console saying "Info String Length Exceeded" and it wont let me type the password. However if I type password and the pw is 4 letters or less it works. What the hell does this mean and how can I get it to go away. Also when I tried my other computer it said my CD key was in use. I dunno if that has anything to do with it or what. Some one please help.

This means you have too many setinfo's in your config.cfg. Remove the lines starting with 'setinfo' in your config.cfg that you dont need and you should be fine. Half-Life can only store so much.

I had this problem once before. Open your config.cfg, there might be some setinfo lines in there like these:

setinfo "6522489"
setinfo "6698324"

I used to have all the setinfo commands enabled and had a few problems like that as well, so I only use ec 1 now.

setinfo "dc" "0" // display class briefings
setinfo "ec" "1" // execute class configs
setinfo "em" "0" // execute map configs
setinfo "dm" "0" // display map briefings

I deleted those and it seemed to solve the problem...

Hope that helps.
