"Kicked for Malformed Client" - Crash fixed, but still spams.

Kudos to the team for fixing this old crash. However, if someone still attempts to try it - it will flood the server with these messages. No lag, or light show, just a spam of console messages.

This error usually happens when there is invalid value for "forcepowers". You should edit your config or reset settings to default using GUI or by moving/deleting config file.
Those files are subjects to edit:
"Jedi Academy\GameData\MBII\jampconfig.cfg"
"Jedi Academy\GameData\MBII\openjk.cfg"
"My Documents\My Games\OpenJK\MBII\openjk.cfg"

If editing won't help, please upload files I've mentioned or reset settings.

Technical Issue - Invalid client data, and unable to launch mbii.x86.exe

There seems to be some misunderstanding here. This was not something I did. These messages flooded the server, over and over again. In previous builds when someone would do this, it would crash the server.

Well, I know at least one way to create such an occurrence. Not sure if it can be still done, but I guess so. If admin adds a bot, which is not supported in MB2, he will be kicked for malformed client info This is just a curiosity. What's weird is that there is no name before this "kicked for malformed info". It should be "Whatever_name kicked for malformed info".

Maybe someone was spamming fake clients trying to join to the serer and instantly being kicked out.
