Has anyone else run into the "could not load official pak file" error?

YES! I get it after every map:(

Here is what happens to me (on every server running ETPro):

I start the map up fine, start playing, time ends and I go into the stats screen and chat screen. When the game is about to rotate maps and load the next map it exits and gives me a lenghthy popup that says cannot find official pak file. I must exit the game and reconnect, it is very annoying because even if the server has XP save you still loss XP and your stats. (XP saves only if you resume play on the server during the same map in the rotation)

EDIT: Resolved the issue by removing my etpro directory from my ET folder. ETPro servers still work and my ETPro cfg still loads (somehow).

there is a .pid(pretty sure) file that gets saved if et thinks you crashed...
deleting this file EACH time you start et might help with this
