Official Q3A FAQ Update

id's Official Quake III Arena FAQ has been updated with a solution for crashes when changing to a CTF level from a DM level or vice versa.
Why does the game sometimes crash if we callvote to another level while playing CTF?

In version 1.11 of Quake3 the game will crash if players try to run a CTF game on maps not designed for CTF. Do not perform a callvote requesting a map change to a non-CTF map without changing the game type first. Before changing maps always make sure you have the correct gametype set.

g_gametype 0 â€" Free For All
g_gametype 1 - Tournament
g_gametype 2 â€" Single Player
g_gametype 3 â€" Team Deathmatch
g_gametype 4 â€" Capture the Flag

This crash will be fixed in the first point release of the game.
Thanks loonyboi.
