  1. Can't it be easier then this...how about an installation program or online chat help. LOL

    If you have a suggestion on how this:

    /rcon pb_sv_writecfg pbucon.use

    /rcon pb_sv_restart

    /rcon pb_sv_USessionLimit 3

    pb_sv_uconadd 1 63.171.64.205 pbbhub pbbhub

    /rcon pb_sv_AutoUpdBan 1

    /rcon pb_sv_writecfg

     

    NOTE: if you're using HLSW or rconUnlimited, omit /rcon

     

    can be made any easier .. please feel free to post here :)

  2. team account created (check forum pm)

    you do not state what method of streaming is requested.

    I have checked "new servers" waiting to be added to rep and yours is not there.

    I have checked Hub and your server is not configured properly for Hub streaming.

    with a team account you can manage your own server(s)

    have fun :)

  3. For some reason I could not see your team account info, I think it was because your team name began with ! .. I have changed your team account name to clan: !mersus and now all is showing correctly.

    This means that you now have control of your server(s) and can add/delete/change IP etc etc.

    It looks like your server is not configured correctly for Hub streaming.

    There is a troubleshooting guide at the end of this post click me if your having problems its reported by our existing Hub server admins that the initial streaming is easier to induce using the rcon method.

    Best of luck and hopefully we will see you streaming in the near future. :)

  4. **update**

     

    Hi.

    I am a senior staff member of www.PBBans.com and it has been brought to our attention that Activision have closed down the sof2 auth master server.

    I am reliably informed that this is due to Activision releasing an issue of sof2 with the same cd key for all.

    This effectively kills the game for online play, as cheating is rife for this game and only an effective anti cheat system such as PunkBuster can effect any kind of control.

    I'm sure you are aware that PB bans are enforced by pbguid which is based on the unique cd key that comes with the game and all players who want to play on pb enabled servers have to auth via your master server.

    If the master server is closed down then enforcing bans via pbguid becomes an impossible task forcing PBBans and other anti cheat support sites to withdraw from sof2, this will have a knock on effect as most present sof2 players only play the mp side of the game so sales of any new sof2 issues will plummet because no one wants to play servers were anyone with a key generator can cheat / get banned / and within a couple of minutes be back again playing.

    There are also quite a few leagues and cup competitions in progress at the moment and I would ask for a rethink for a short grace period to enable these competitions to come to a close.

    It's pretty sad that an administrative cock up has effectively killed a quite popular online game which I am sure your sales will reflect once word gets around, but any help with at least a small grace period would be appreciated.

    finally ... a reply

    Date 23 January 2007

     

    Further to your correspondence of 29 December 2006

     

    Evenbalance's GUIDs (and related bans) are tied ONLY to the cdkey and NEVER to the DHCP/IP address.

     

    As you are aware , due to the fact that Soldier of Fortune 2 is a legacy title, the game was redistributed using the same CD key. Punkbuster software has been adjusted our system to allow for the specific GUID that was duplicated. Hence players will not get banned for duplicating that CD key.

     

    However, almost every single server admin who enables PB will ban based on the GUID and there is nothing we can do about that. So unfortunately, users with the widespread GUID are going to find it increasingly hard to find PB enabled servers that will let them play.

     

    There is not much we can do on this matter.

     

    Please do not hesitate to get back in touch if we can be of further assistance.
