Tried to launch Challenges and the game failed to start with the warning: "DISCONNECTED - Invalid Data"

True for both Hive and Sculk challenges.

The game is Authenticating..., then Checking Game Data..., then Loading... and after that drops to the main menu with that warning.

Hi,

could you enter verbose 3 into your console before starting a challenge. Afterwards please send us the log located at %appdata%/Natural Selectiion 2/.

Thanks.

Well, tried to start challenges now - both are working, strange...

Bytheway - NS2+ mod does not work on Hive challenge so all my settings are defaulted to vanilla... Could You pls make this mod work on Challenges?

Well, another problem arises from time to time now... when when trying to create listen server. After pressing START SERVER the game very often locks and hangs forever... To exit - use alt-tab and manual termination...
