  1. clantag can be 13 digits in length.

    you need to pass your chosen username and password to a staff member.

     

    your server does not show as "new server" waiting to be added to the rep.

    This means there is an error at your end.

    Things to check in your root pb folder:

     

    that a pbsvlog.cfg exists

     

    that the pbsvlog.cfg contains the following info:

    pb_sv_LogAddr 63.171.64.22 // this never changes

    pb_sv_LogPort 24389 // this never changes

    pb_sv_LogUser USERNAME

    pb_sv_LogPw PASSWORD

     

    (username and pass are chosen by you and should be passed to a staff member via forum pm)

     

    that the command line:

    pb_sv_load pbsvlog.cfg has been added to your pbsv.cfg

     

    and last but not least that a pb_sv_restart has been executed via rcon

     

    just repost here when your ready for another check :)

     

    as an alternative you might want to consider streaming via the PBBans Hub - all this requires is 5 rcon commands:

    /rcon pb_sv_writecfg pbucon.use

    /rcon pb_sv_restart

    /rcon pb_sv_USessionLimit 1

    /rcon pb_sv_uconadd 1 63.171.64.245 pbbans pbbans

    /rcon pb_sv_writecfg

     

    hf and good luck :)

  2. from the manual:

     

    Can I prevent other players from using my name or tag on my own server?

     

    Yes, if you or your clan run your own server, you can can configure your server to remove players who use your name or tag without the proper credentials using the following PunkBuster Server commands:

    PB_SV_ProtectName [unique ID] [Registered Name]

    Protects the specified PunkBuster Registered Name on the local server so that players who wear the protected name without having the correct Registration Credentials will be removed from the server.

    PB_SV_ProtectTag [unique ID] [Registered Tag]

    Protects the specified PunkBuster Registered Tag on the local server so that players who wear the protected tag without having the correct Registration Credentials will be removed from the server.

  3. oh dear, my fault for just replying to post's without checking things out first, your clan rosta reads like a who's who of convicted cheaters via linked ip's.

    With such an appalling number of convicted cheaters in your clan it has been decided not to allow streaming of this server.

    The only reason that you yourself got a member account here is because your conviction is on the PsB MBL and we can not confirm that the ban is genuine via streamed info stored in a repository

    If you are determined to stream your server I would suggest looking for an anti cheat site with considerably lower standards than what we employ here.

  4. pb_sv_scoreKick //[minimum score (negative)]

     

    If you have a mod running that deducts points for bad language, once the player gets below what is set in the pbsv.cfg he will get a kick.

    solution:

    make the low neg. scorkick something ridiculous ( pb_sv_scoreKick -100 )

  5. EvenBalance do not publish a list of globally banned guid's as such.

    The bans you see on our MBI are from servers that stream to PBBans.

    The bans you see on PsB MBL are from servers that stream to PsB

    Both are privately run anti cheat sites

    The only way forward for you is via the trouble ticket system .. what you have to do now is wait for a resonse to your ticket.

  6. if you have bought a brand new game and the cd is already banned there are a couple of probable scenarios dependent on were you bought it :) but firstly I would check that the game cd key matches the one on your jewel case.

    Some games have had a change of cd key happen when pb is run for the first time so thats the first check.

    I know a guy in work who sells copied games that come in a sealed wrapper and are indistinguishable from the real thing .. each copy has the one cd key so pretty useless for online play.

    I have also heard from an unofficial source that the limited copies of sof2 that have been released by raven have mistakenly been given the same cd key.

    Whatever is the truth it seems there are a lot of players with a useless cd key that is already globally banned.

    If you take it back were you bought it from tell them your not returning the game but want a working cd key for online play, make a note of the one you have now and if possible check in store if the new game they give you has a different cd key :)

     

    sorry I cant be more upbeat about this m8 but I have come across some players who bought 5 copies of sof2 online from different countries and all had the same cd key.

    Best of luck with your proposed game exchange and if you get this resolved please post and tell us how you get on :)

  7. its been repeatedly stated on the forums that the only thing one can take as 100% true in relation to a guid and ban is the guid information :)

    everything else is for info purposes only and can not be proven 100% true unless the IP is static.

    I suppose you could ask your clannie about it :P

  8. without a guid no one can check out if your on any ban index so with that in mind lets concentrate on the information I have at hand re you and RTCW :) this is info gathered by PBBans enabled servers and collated in the PBBans Master Player Index (MPI3)

    I see 3 guid's directly linked to you.

     

    f0abdd6003d02eb4b2da31baa29dc935

    euro

    6e7143b7acafa5bc30d7399c1e07443f

    //pR//EurO

    which are both clean.

     

    6068d9f9a4e1adfe304e45b8783be7d5 is also directly linked and is a leaked cd key off the internet.

    Alias(s) (960)

    IP Address(s) (1482)

    This guid is banned on both PBBans MBI and PsB MBL.

    There are that many players linked to leaked cd keys off the internet that we do not use that type of linked ban to prevent anyone becoming a member here.

     

    Having said all that if you have recently reinstalled RTCW check that the cd key is the one you used on the install via the game options menu .. there have been recent cases were a completely different cd key showed up right after pb was first enabled after a fresh install.

     

    If the cd key is the correct one then use one of the other 2 you have and you will have no problem.

    There is another possible 2 scenarios in that you have a banned guid for a cheat on a server that is not streaming to PBBans or PsB or your banned recently on PsB because the MBL info we use is a month behind.

     

    btw .. if you feel like getting your friends "paid for cheat" and passing it to me, dont hesitate, you never know it might not be one of the many prvate cheats we have already lol :)

  9. we have reached that magic number of members that spammers target .. we have had quite a few in the past month or so and part of the process we go through is to check every registrant for cheat convictions primarily then the additional checks that identify possible spammers that make it past our filters ..apologies if this is not the case here :)

  10. Fozz,,,you know what would be nice,,,, a section for non-streamers to post ss's and demoes ,,,I know they cant be added to the MBI but atleast its good to look at and a good heads-up for other servers who do\dont stream ...just a thought :D

    I think you missed a key sentence Tim :P

     

    Will have to get streaming!

    lets not forget why we only accept pbss/demo evidence from streaming servers - its so the digital fingerprint of any submitted pbss can be verified as 100% genuine via streamed info from our EvenBalance repository this totally eliminates the "I was framed whine".

    With demo evidence everything can be checked in the same way from the time the player connected to the server to the time he leaves or gets kicked.

    By creating a section for non streamers to post pbss/demo's in would open the floodgates for pbss and demo's that we could not guarantee would be 100% genuine and would have no way of checking on, not to mention potentially innocent players being subjected to "mob" justice (for want of a better phrase) :)

  11. As posted on the "How to" guide:

     

    NOTE:If your server is empty for a long time, it can be shown as non streaming.

    To avoid this happening, open your pbsv.cfg and add the line: pb_sv_task 0 3600 pb_sv_ver

    and restart PB.(pb_sv_restart)

    This will regularly send "heartbeats" to the Hub.

    The length of time before your server shows as "not streaming" seems to vary but normally does not kick in for several hours of complete inactivity.

    Adding the above command line to your pbsv.cfg forces your server to stream a minute piece of info at the set interval and by doing so lets the Hub see that all is well.

     

    The PBBans Hub is a new innovation and there are several things our coders are working on.

    We already have "live" banning / dual streaming / log forwarding / enhanced cvar detection .... apologies for anything I forgot :P

     

    Other things may be coming up soon but it depends on priorities, the main priority of any anti cheat site is to provide its clientelle with the cleanest gaming environment possible and by sticking to that ethos means that other stuff has to be placed on the back burner.

    The Hub never ceases to amaze me in what its capable of and when our coders get some free time they will be able to work on what they want to instead of being forced by some slavedriver to work on reaction plans to new types of cheat :P

    The one thing I can say with certainty is that the PBBans Hub is still in its infancy and there is a lot more to come from it. :)
