Re: punkbuster error

I now am having PB kicks every time I join either First Strike or 2142.  I even went and deleted all the PB files and did a manual update but it still is doing the same thing.  It's as discribed above and says something about versions 1.266, A1375 and C1.745

I saw a lot of people dropping from all the servers so I wonder if it's some kind of error in the PB system?   I had no issues at all yesterday so this all makes no since.

Re: punkbuster error

Download pbsetup.exe 


Put it inside your pb folder and use it to update....


I had it in a different folder and it didnt work, so maybe its the same deal with you guys.

Re: punkbuster error

Yeah and also mine was something to do with PB having problems writing to a file called PBag.dll or something like that.   I found that by watching the console and what it was saying there.  I deleted that .dll and ran the updater again and after a restart it appears to be working now.

Re: punkbuster error

ty pbsetup.exe doesnt need to be in you pb fildor, as you can select any game that has pb.
just make sure when selecting the game it uses the right map/folder
pb has a log file with usefull information about why your getting kick. read this file and search for the error in google,
that is if pbsetup doesnt fix your problem.
also you could try this file http://www.evenbalance.com/downloads/pbsvc/pbsvc.exe to test you current installed pb version. you can also use it to reinstall, but to do that please make sure you uniinstall pb with it first
