There are some known problems with PunkBuster banning people who haven't done anything wrong.
The cause of this can be some new hardware u have installed or something in that order.

This was also a problem with Call of Duty and several other games.

Talking with punkbuster won't help you any further, because its very difficult to prove you're wrong.

I think the only solution is to buy a new pc, or motherboard or something but I dont know that exactly.

your brother plays AA?
PB is PB on et and the same pb on AA
Your Bro has cheated on AA
(i got the info,i kinda do some stuff for them)

you got hardware banned.

you can play on PS1 normally(pb is off, or hidden)
but if i ever catch you cheating. its a ban on ps1 too.

pb is hidden on ps#1
pb#3 and #4 are with pb
pb#5 and #6 are withaut pb
pb#2 is currently with pb but maybe it wont stay like that depends how much players will be on

y would i cheat??? i hate cheating!!!

So i have to buy an new computer or ps 2 gets back 2 normal?

by **landser** » Thu May 18, 2006 17:28

simpliest would be: buy a new computer

or: remove some hardwar stuff ...

if some1 cheats (on ANY pb game he will be in cheata list => global hardwar ban on every pb server ... i mean your computer hardwar is banned on every pb serva

)

change your hdd and network card mac address...

it is indispensable to run PS2 without PB because of shrubot.cfg bug

the building of a wolf et server:

a wolf et gameserver dictionary is builded like your (wincrap) clientside dictionary ...

but ofcourse no .exe file ...

but the prob:
in the shrubet folder is a file called "shrubbot.cfg" in this file all lvls , admins , bans are fixed (its only causing probs in shrubet , not in etpub folder) ... but if there are more than a certain amount of lvls , admins , bans the shrubbot.cfg will delete itself :/ first the bans get deleted , followed by admins (lvls will not get deleted because lvls are really less than this certain amount)

=> too many entry = shrubbot destroys itself => we cant ban anymore

and because of sv_punkbuster 0 server attract many players and i dont wanna change it etpub we have to switch pb on (pb bans cheaters => less entrys in shrubbot.cfg => all nearly fine

)

the pb handicaped persons can play on PS4 , 5 , 6 ...

(ps 5 is shrubet , too but only with 20 slots => less admins , less bans => should work without pb for a long time

)

*asks for your tolerance*

btw: many pb probs can be solved .... u only have to post on help desk ...

Yea and my prob cuz i wanna play on PS 2 wait till resuslts of how the server gets full?

by **Nemesis** » Thu May 18, 2006 20:45

come on PS#5 and stay cool for 2 days

by **landser** » Thu May 18, 2006 20:58

trust me ... server will be full in less than 6 month

and better have a less full server than got too many cheaters and no oportunity to ban them ...
