If you would like to get that pb problem maybe fixed, read the thread "Punkbuster Issues" and maybe give some answer about the questions there. would be a first step to get this problem done. it is up to you all - if you like.
Nope, its a case of getting annoyed, frustrated and realising its not going to change unless you turn off your pc and on again and you can play for a good while before it occurs again.
So I thought it was strange that I can get this game to launch on my iMac but since I've installed it on a gaming PC with everything being up to date. I get PB kicks and Boots. Does anyone know why this is happening?
No, the server will start always with pb enabled. you can disable it, but while starting the server, anticheat logic will overwrite your settings to enabled.
It is so cool to see AA 2.X still alive. Played Pipeline SF for the first time in over 10 years, i don't have the reflexes anymore, but still have a lot of the muscle memory. See everyone in the servers and thank you to assist for keeping this legacy alive!
will be overwrited on server side by assist anticheat logic. client will stay, but you will get the message: you need to have punkbuster enabled on this server when connected to it.
@-Rtn I had the same issue, yesterday. Its working now. I did PB fix twice as admin with no luck. I then did a PB update and rebooted the PC which fixed it.
update windows , fresh install AA. do not re use any old files. just re download everything. and install fresh. i had issue with PB heart beats B. exe failing. I did what i just said am i am playing fine.
hi i always restart comp. after this right click mousw for assist icon and run as administrator after this fix pb .Closed assist and run normal option its pain in ass but work
@TomG try this: delete all rules in Win firewall regardin AA, be sure to delete ALL the specific rules at voice AArmy and Assist too, with rel apps not running, then restart both givin allow to tyhe win firewall asks thats all. Be sure of a renewed and updated PB enviroment too.
