TGEA 1.7.0 StrongHold FPS demo Network Crash Issues:Urgent

Hi All
I have been trying to develop a multiplayer FPS demo in Torque1.7.0 and to start with I took the game example STRONGHOLD FPS as the reference.
The problem arises when I host a multiplayer and a client connects to my system. The build simply crashes in Client system asserting the error "No Particles Found". After n attempts from various systems, sometimes the build works and most of the times it doesn't. I have tried commenting the datablocks related to particles but with no success.
I am unable to fix this error as it was totally unexpected from the pre-existing demo build of TGEA (trust me, i didn't do any changes in the build).
Did anyone already face this problem? I tried looking out for some solution online but got no useful search results. Many were getting crashes while exiting the game but I get a crash whenever client connects to the server and datablocks start loading..
Can anyone help me out on this issue ASAP. i cannot get my work going without this.
Thanks in advance

Neverthless in TGEA 1.8.0, the FPS starter kit was working perfectly in a mutliplayer mode.
Still no clue about the crash issues.

I gave up my effort to launch a multiplayer game in TGEA 1.7.0 with the FPS starter kit i have purchased. Once the crash issues begin, it stays forever. Neverthless in TGEA 1.8.0, the FPS starter kit was working perfectly in a mutliplayer mode.
Still no clue about the crash issues.

I too faced similar problems with TGEA 1.7.0 game examples.I inferred from the console log entry that the mission file STRONGHOLD failed to load in PHASE 1 when a client connects a server. This happens even before particle datablocks are loaded. This might be due to loss of packet transfer in a network.
I cannot give you the specific reasons why this packets cannot be transferred in some network/systems. It still amuses me.
