Punkbuster Files For Call of Duty

[Clanwarz]

Installing & Updating Your COD or COD:UO Punkbuster Files


Here is quick and simple way to fix all pb issues from now on. Goto your command line and make sure you are in the root of your game server folder so if you do a "ls" command you see the pb folder. The following steps will give you a new pb folder I have just created, fully updated with the lastest pbbans.dat file and all the files and cfgs necessary to keep the cheaters away.

-->>But Before you do this...


Before you remove the pb directory, you should go into your existing pbsv.cfg and extract anything you put in there (e.g., message tasks, bad names, etc.). For example, I have a pretty large bad name list, so I'll extract that, then paste it into pbsv.cfg after the extract.

-->Plain and simple save your old pbsv.cfg if you have one.


--------------------------


The commands are highlighted here in "yellow".


mv pb pbold - renames your CURRENT pbfolder
wget http://files.clanwarz.net/temp/pb.zip - Goes gets the folder I made. The url is not highlighted but include it.
unzip pb.zip - unzips the pb folder
rm -rf pb.zip - removes the zipped pb folder
cd pb - changes directories to your new pb folder
chmod +x pbweb.x86 - gives the pbweb for linux execuatble rights
./pbweb.x86 - executes pb web to update PB server for you.

This is what it looks like while you do the commands. The command prompt is highlighted yellow for easy reading:


[>> root << @sv23:/home/test/cod-server] rm -rf pb

[>> root << @sv23:/home/test/cod-server] wget http://files.clanwarz.net/temp/pb.zip

You Can also dl the PB folder first to feel confident that it is actaully a pb folder - grab it..

~~Right Here~~ (http://files.clanwarz.net/temp/pb.zip)


This is also good for windows but you need the pbweb.exe if your server doesn't automatically update, but it should!


8-) Good Nite!! ZZZzZZZZzZzzzzzzzz

I noticed this config doesn't have a messaging attached. Would you just add the lines? Or is there another file that its located at?

[OldDog]

Clanwarz,

This is great, thanks. To answer Falkstick's question: before you remove the pb directory, you should go into your existing pbsv.cfg and extract anything you put in there (e.g., message tasks, bad names, etc.). For example, I have a pretty large bad name list, so I'll extract that, then paste it into pbsv.cfg after the extract.

Reinstalling the 1.4 patch and then running the pbweb would actually have the same effect.

[Clanwarz]

Add this to your cod-server/pb/pbsv.cfg


//************************************************** *************************************
// PB TASKS - pb_sv_task
//************************************************** *************************************

// Empties list so tasks dont pile up, resets list.

pb_sv_taskempty

// Task setup for PunkBuster


pb_sv_task 20 300 "say ^7Welcome To: ^1[^7|^156^7|^1] ^7Canadian Legion ^7Call of Duty: UO"
pb_sv_task 30 330 "say ^1-=^3Resistance is Futile^1=-"
pb_sv_task 40 360 "say ^3Visit us online at ^7www.56thCanadian.com"
pb_sv_task 50 390 "say ^3Punkbuster Admin MD5^1-^3Tool Cheat Detector Loaded & Running!"
pb_sv_task 60 420 "say ^3Email Server Admin: ^7amouda@56thcanadian.com"


Then do this in-game console

\rcon pb_sv_restart

Yep you're 100 percent correct if you are in windows. But that will not work in Linux.

Friday, January 14, 2005, PB updated to fix all the Pb crashes that dealt with the Screen Shot issues. I have also updated these pb files to reflect the update.
