Slow Posted January 7, 2007 Posted January 7, 2007 OK, I set up HUB and am streaming. What is my next step? I've noticed punkbuster kicking a couple of guys for MD5 tool: [01.07.2007 12:11:40] VIOLATION (IGNORING QUERIES) #9013: escbob (slot #9) Ignoring MD5Tool Queries [43bd3191578e29af026cbcd65357cb6d(VALID) 68.118.181.8:28960] What does this mean? I know this guy, he's not a cheat. Is this bad? Quote
RodeoBob Posted January 7, 2007 Posted January 7, 2007 You are set my friend :) The kick you listed above.....comes from a poor internet connection....and not a sign of a cheater :) Quote
mcsteve Posted January 7, 2007 Posted January 7, 2007 (edited) No its not bad, you will see a lot of these and they are primarily caused by connection problems. Edit (about 30 seconds later): Fast fingers RodeoBob, you beat me :P Edited January 7, 2007 by mcsteve Quote
Slow Posted January 7, 2007 Author Posted January 7, 2007 OK, thanks guys. One more question...is the a specific list of the "kicks" somewhere I could look at? Just for my reference. Quote
mcsteve Posted January 7, 2007 Posted January 7, 2007 Look in your PB folder for a file called "sv_viol.log". Quote
Slow Posted January 7, 2007 Author Posted January 7, 2007 Yeah, that's where I was looking, was just wondering if there was a list of possible kicks somewhere. Quote
RodeoBob Posted January 7, 2007 Posted January 7, 2007 Kicks and Bans are two different critters :) A server can be setup to "kick" for a variety of things....and those things could all be non-bannable offenses. PBBans uses the violations identified by PunkBuster as the basis for bans. They range from Aimbot, Wallhack, Multihack, PB Hack, etc. You may also notice a few bans appear that come from CVAR and MD5Tool scans. These scans take PunkBuster one step further and bans people using or possessing known cheats on their computers. Quote
