PB question

[Lude]

I noticed there is no PB config, i wanted to add a few ingame messages so i added a cfg. but when i did this is what happened.


I went back in and deleted the cfg but pb keeps giving these errors in consol. Any ideas?

I just FTP'd over my CoD4 pb config's to the new beta server and all works fine. The only change I made was in the pb_svuser.cfg. I removed the CoD4 cvar checks because I got kicked from my own server for some weird decal error :p

Other than that all work fine.

[Lude]

So its client side then?

[MoGElijah]

No, the pb config's in my pb folder on my CoD4 servers is the same config's I am running on my CoDWW server. I use punkbusted which checks for client side cvars when they join the server and it also checks their game folder for known hacks. I left the cod4 hack names in the file just in case.

I removed the cvar's fro mthe pb_sv_user.cfg since they are different for this game than CoD4. Everything works fine including scrolling text.

Thanks for the reply MoGElijah. Could you post a copy of your PB config? Also i was asking if the error was client side, I found out it was because every server i went to. The same text was in consol.

Is this for a server or for your personal game on your box?

I assumed you meant server since it's in the server support section :D

Herre is my pbsv.cfg

COD WAW is supported in PB setup. Try using it to update PB.

If it isn't listed delete the pbgame.htm file and run PB setup again.

[HIS-MOTHER]

Try typing in the console pb_sv_writecfg


It should create a cfg file.

I updated PB in CoD:WW with PBsetup.exe and after that I got kicked from my own server. (someting about init - do not remember exactly)
So I updated my CoD:WW with PBsetup.exe client side as well but still with the same result.
When looking into the PB kick-log a saw that everyone trying to connect to the server was kicked fo the same reson.
Ended up reinstalling the server from scratch with original PB-files and then it worked again.

Any one knows something about this? Anyone sucsessfully managed to update PB without having it kicking the players?

Thx! Tried that now. Have to wait 8 hours until I get home from work to test it though.

Running CoDWW via UltraVNC doesn't really work out as well as you'd like it to ;)
