Default Anyone validated a clean install via script lately?

I'm just starting to dip my toes into standing up a server for the first time. I built a brand new Windows 10 x64 virtual machine last night, fully patched it, then downloaded the Windows Installer payload and ran the included script, following the instructions on the Wiki.

First run of the script threw an error about "world" not being a recognized command, then hung shortly after. I read some other folks here saying that the install script some times takes two runs, so I re-started it and it finished, albeit with several random warnings/errors output to the console in the process. (sorry, didn't screen-cap it, not sure if it logs to a file)

I'm able to start up the server services via the script (5 windows open, all appear healthy)

I tweaked the config files (Note: Wiki instructions still refers to the .ini file that's now a json file) and even played with these for a few hours swapping out loopback and my actual LAN ip in different combinations, but ultimately my issue is this...

With a properly pointed SoF2 game client, I get stuck at the logging in screen (the one *before* the server list). I do see the login server window acknowledging my client connecting to it, but that's where things stop moving forward.

According to the changelogs, the developers have been pushing some pretty big changes in the last couple weeks...so I'm wondering if maybe I just have bad timing and tried to do this at a time that the clean installation routine has some fresh bugs in it.

So...can anyone confirm a fresh install is working right now, so I know that the problems on my side somewhere?
