they go along with your other pb related stuff into your root pb folder the exact location of the root pb folder can be found by typing pb_sv_homepath via rcon

one of your sof2 cd keys is linked to a ban on our banlist - our policy is not to take anyone on with a cheat conviction,so i am afraid you will have to try another anti cheat site thats not so fussy. your probably already aware of this policy - boxer / Djeet - whats in a name eh

The latest version of PB as i type for sof2 is - server:v1.229 client:v1.232 A1363 You can check what version is running on your server by typing pb_sv_ver via rcon server response should be:12:06:51 ^3PunkBuster Server: PunkBuster Server (v1.229 | A1363 C1.232) Enabled The normal way any Q3 engine game enables PB is to have a single command line in the server.cfg: // punkbuster pb_sv_enable It may also be enabled by adding this switch to your server start file command line: +set sv_punkbuster 1 PunkBuster cannot be Disabled immediately during the middle of gameplay. Choosing to Disable PunkBuster by any method will set PunkBuster into Disabled mode but that does not take effect until the entire game is restarted and if the above commands are still present in your server.cfg or start file you will be back were you first started after every reboot. why are you trying to disable PB btw ? - If anything is needed on a server as a matter of priorities PB would be #1 **edit** your server is showing in HLSW - anticheat tool none which is like saying to every lamer with a hack and a copy of sof2 - "come use your hacks here"

as stated in the above link i posted , the only course of action thats open for anyone with a global guid ban or hardware ban is the trouble ticket system - there is nothing anyone can do for you here, as these bans are issued directly by EvenBalance and as such all enquiries re global or hardware bans are dealt with exclusively by them. http://www.evenbalance.com/troubleticket/

nice to see you here m8 - now all we need is to get you and pappa irc trained :P

phew - for one minute i thought we had another ET on our hands lol :) - wish they would improve the admin side of things for that game

errr does this have something to do with us m8 :)

There are some who would launch into a rant re other anti cheat sites :P but to look at things in a more objective fashion Iwould say the main difference between the 2 sites is the policy on cvars - PBBans actually bans for hack related cvars , I have yet to see a plausible excuse as to why a player would have something like vinneh_autofire in their cfg :) pb is quite a competent anti cheat solution but it needs that little extra help to make it a great anti cheat solution - we strive to provide that help by collecting and dissecting hacks (both public and private) for cvars/md5 scans - this information is then made available to our streaming admins via the MCI (Master Config Index) - all streamed information is untouched by human hand and gives every ban that makes it onto the MBI (Master Ban Index) cast iron proof to back it up. As always, Pbbans does not force anyone to use our MCI or MBI its entirely up to the guys and gals that fork out their hard earned cash to provide game servers - having said that, on a personal level i think if we can give PB a helping hand in any way possible,then thats exactly what we should do. over the last couple of months the servers streaming to the PBBans repository increased 3 fold so we must be doing something right :) - take a look around and hopefully we will see more of ya on here

now your streaming status has been verified - forum upgrade applied and you now have access to the private streaming game admin section - take a read - http://www.pbbans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=16906

need to see the exact pb message you get when trying to join a server to make any comment - but this is posted in every individual game section http://www.pbbans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=17507

The reason any anti-cheat exists is to provide as much information as they can to ensure that the cleanest gaming environment is attained for anyone who cares enough about protecting their servers/players to become a streaming game admin - you might trust implicitly your fellow clan members - but (theres always a but) :) do you trust implicitly every player that connects to your server - there are a ton of various pbss blockers out there that are part of a hack or stand alone, they will provide you with a nice clean screenshot every time - the best way to enhance PB for cheat detection is to run MD5 scans - we go to the trouble of collecting all the MD5 info and collating it for our streaming admins to use and any player that connects to your server only has to type /pb_logmd5tool 1 to get a list of what checks you run (if any) - so whats it to be? stand back and let it all flow by ya, or jump aboard and provide your clan server/members with the cleanest gaming environment that we can provide - the choice is yours.

yes please

Did you have something specific in mind m8 ?

like i posted earlier no one is forcing you to use PBBans or anyone elses bans - PB does a competent job on its own but needs a little help via MD5 scans etc to make it an exceptional anti cheat programme. If someone checks out a cheat for curiousity sake they have more chance of getting away with it on a badly configured server and thats the reason CB are insisting on streaming and at a minimum runs MD5 checks. As stated earlier we dont ban anyone, PB does - all we do is provide our streaming admins the most up to date information for keeping their servers clean and keep records of data that can be accessed by any concerned admin - no ones accusing you of being a cheat, cheaters dont get a forum account here. PB enabled and updated is only half the battle - you only have to look at any ban list from any anti-cheat service to see that most bans are generated by undetected hacks that are caught using MD5 scans. Streaming to an anti -cheat site gives anyone running leagues/ladders/cups etc etc the feelgood factor this is because any matches played, are played in the cleanest gaming environment possible,and, anyone caught with pb violations can never claim they were set up by someone else. You know - its the honest players who use your server i feel sorry for - they trust you to provide a clean gaming environment because your the server admin and you post whats tantamount to a cheaters charter here of all places lol - either get on with the streaming or go elsewhere and try your luck - again its a choice thing - here we are very much pro PB and very much anti hacks, your posts seem to indicate otherwise if you dont agree with PBBans stance on cheating and the detection of cheaters then please go elsewhere and see if they can help you, your opinions are the very antithesis of all we care about here.
