Disconnect for unknown reason

Postby AWCADDET » Tue Nov 06, 2007 23:08

Well i was playing today, then decided to make some new colors to my binds, also added a new one.

And now i cant connect to the NQ PS#5 server. Can someone please help me, as i would really like to be able to play again :(

The error message that shows up is:

Perhaps a server crash. Try to connect you later.
I dont think color bind are related to your problem...

Nope, not a server crash, the server has gone through like 5 map rotations, same happens when i try to connect to any of the other NQ PS servers

Here is a screen shot of the console, any ideas?

And that is after i re-installed the game :S

I checked the server logs and it seems like you are using an empty name i.e. no name/blank name.

Punkbuster is set that it automatically kicks players with empty names, this is you;

Code: Select all
VIOLATION (BADNAME) #111:  (slot #12) Empty Player Name Disallowed



Try the following;
- start up ET.exe
- go to your settings and check your name
- correct your name if needed

- go back to the main screen
- click on 'Mods' > select 'noquarter' and hit 'load mod'

No Quarter will now be loaded

- on the main screen, again go to; 'Options' > 'Game'
- correct your name or fill in a name (its possibly empty)

Restart ET and connect to PS5 :)

Thanks alot for your support man, I checked and it wasn't infact because of havin no name, but what was in it

I had my name like this, because of style purposes :P

And i guess punkbuster just got pissy with me because of the / and \ because i looked onto console and mentioned that, i simply removed that and managed to connect :D, Now all i need is a decent color scheme for my name and binds :(

Thanks for the help warren 8)
