ok the cm_leafcluster error seems to be an error in the demo.
base now loads new maps without error but i have to start the renderer with full dynamic lighting off or the world goes all black, i can enable it after and it works fine then but strange non the less.
speedrun demo still not working at level load simply freezes when changing map.
I checked out the code from svn and am looking at it now

Productivity is a state of mind.
