Re: PUNKBUSTER - WIERD PROBLEM

Short update. Here is the official statement that I have received from Activision support recently:

Quote:

[...]

It does appear that The Punkuster (PB) support has been discontinued for
RtCW, ET and ET:QW and Doom 3. EvenBalance has dropped support for
Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Enemy Territory and Enemy Territory: Quake
Wars. All relevant sections on the PB website has been removed.

Streaming support will continue for the time being, it is simply no
longer being updated or actively supported beyond the last client
updates.

We will continue to provide technical support for the games at this
time, however there will be no new updates from PB for the requested
titles.

[...]

Please be patient, the decision either to continue or drop PB support should be expected in the next few days.

Rank moderation.

OK, here a UPDATE!

these pb files for 32 bit windows (I put them in the "pb" folder) + these files from Miguel work well together.
u have at first TO DELETE all the pb files and the pb folder from your q3 install folder!
the second step is: unpack these files from me ( virus checked - VIRUS FREE ) to your q3 install folder
next step: double click on "pbsvc" and do everything what the program requires.
next step: double click on "pbsetup" -> and u will seen that your q3 game is already registered to pb.
U MUST DO!! as a update protection for these files! all the files from me must be "write protected" --> so it's impossible for a update to overwrite those files, and u will have always your good old working PB files Winking
I also tested (thx ASPHYX Happy ) if PB are working when PB is serversites ON.
YES, it's work --OK, a few small errors (like pb cvar pb_sleep1) but that can be fixed by the specialists of you.
THIS IS NOT A HACK!! ALL OF THESE FILES ARE ORIGINAL PB FILES!!
from here can u have my PB Files: megaupload are DOWN Sad Sad

EDIT: pb_sleep1 error fixed Happy

MEGAUPLOAD are down now Sad so u can download my PB Folder and PB Files from here: http://www.mediafire.com/?h61kec5r32754i3

We do not stop playing because we grow old;
we grow old because we stop playing.

Re: PUNKBUSTER - WIERD PROBLEM

i have googled but not much help. some say that PB should be set to run as Administrator. it is about some update that cannot be performed. uninstall this pb and try mine PB. download 2 archives from ftp://ftp.ibn.bg/PunkBuster/ . extract them in q3 folder, and run pbsvc.exe to install.

Salut,
When installing pb on windows 7 or later you must right click -> Run as administrator . Also when installing the pbsvc (service).

http://www.excessiveplus.net/forums/thread/an-introduction-to-punkbuster-and-pure

If this is not the solution, please give more details as what doesn't work. I was able to play with pb on windows 7 both 32/64 versions. I haven't tried installing on windows 8/8.1 yet but it should work.

Also don't install the latest version from pb website since it doesn't have Quake III Arena support anymore (see 1st post on this topic). Use the version from the link i gave, posted by rank mods.
