OK.
Clean UA install plus S3TC install without fix on Linux = happiness
S3TC install + std S3 fix on well-established Windows install (i.e. much crud) = skating bots
S3TC install without S3 fix on well-established Windows install = skating bots
In the latter cases, the server install is fairly clean (well, compared to the server that I joined last night and was able to go away, cook the pizza, serve it, have a relaxing cup of coffee and I still had to wait for it to finish downloading all the addons), bonus packs, MapVoteLA, MH, ons, JB plus a load of maps (iirc).
I suppose the next step is to blow away the Windows install and try from a clean install.
There was talk of some server-side setting that could help - what is it?
