Crashing when connecting

[JS3!]

Yo, whenever I try to connect to a server that has a new map that I don't have, it instantly crashes, then returns to the home-screen. I do /connect, then the new maps that have to be downloaded show up, then it crashes. I'm not sure if this is normal behaviour, or if cl_AllowDownloads 0 or 1 messes with this, as it's wearing me out whenever I have to manually download a map, just to comeback, and there's another map I must manually d-load, or I can't find the specified map. Any suggestions, as I can't find my problem very common to be solved. (I'm a newb, as you can clearly see )

For having autodownload feature you need the 'dfengine' for example.

You can find it here: http://cggdev.org/taxonomy/term/2
Just download it and put the executable in the main quake3 folder (same folder as quake3.exe)

This is not counterstrike. Map download is not the standard. I download maps manually, too.

However, as mini already pointed out, you can use dfengine. When you switch from quake3 you won't miss any features. If you use ioquake3 you will loose every update in the last 6 years after the switch. I wouldn't want to do that.

Ah ok, guess I'll just download the maps, since i use ioquake3

You need to log in on the server

Yes, but you can't connect atm. Whenever you try to connect your game client crashes, well dfengine does, don't know about other binaries.
