Look in your user_maps/multi folder for a 0kb sized .VPP file. If there's one in there, delete it. If it still doesn't work, look for another one. Delete all the 0kb sized VPP's and it SHOULD work. If not, re-install RF...

damn I don't even have the game anymore and I can still remember the fixes :/

WRONG!!!! ... it is the RiverRequiem music file, somehow the readme was named as the .vpp (open it in notepad and you will see) ... i do hope you didnt delete the whole RFU4 just cause one file was problematic
P.S. Still Alive.

You probably have what is called a Zerobit file or a file with zero bytes. what you need to do is:
1.go in your multi folder
2.arrange files by size
3.look for the file with zero bytes(should be the first one)
then delete.
afterwards you can probably create a game. I know this because I've had this same exact problem before.

i had a 0 byte file befor and it did not caulse any problem till i tryed to play that map. the problems was trying to delete any 0 byte file coz my computer never lets me delete 0 byte files, always says access denide so the only way to delete them is to network a computer to it and share the folder that the file is in and delete it from the networked computer( works every time ) lol those files are worse than viruses
