Hi there...
i installed Q3A as well as TA just a few minutes ago because i wanted to fix this problem:

Unfortunately even a fresh installation didn't help. I'm running Q3A under Win7 64bit in compatibility mode "Win XP SP2". Changing the compatibility mode as well as resetting my cfg didn't help. For further info here is the exact way how i installed Q3 in chronological order:

  • 1.installing q3
  • 2.installing team arena3
  • 3.Installing point release 1.32
  • 4.replacing quake.exe 1.32 with 1.32c
  • 5.installing excessiveplus
This is from the condump: -----
trying gfx/misc/contop.TGA...WARNING: R_FindImageFile could not find 'gfx/misc/contop.tga' in shader'console'Shader console has a stage with no image
-------
Even though i must mention that the console looks just fine in E+ this error only shows up when loading basic Q3 or other mods such as CPMA or Defrag.
Anyone got an idea how to fix this?

Try joining pure server, if you get dropped, your pak0 may be unpure
oooor. You have pk3, with modificated something(shader) wich points to unavialable resource.
I suggest you leave only original paks in baseq folder, and move in paks with modifications, little by little to see, if any of them contained a wrong shader.
Also check your appdata folder for any paks that may have been dowloaded with previous versions/installations.
This folder should also contain old cfgs
