corrupt module kick info


Facelift

Recommended Posts

This is the info on the issue and was sent to me by a former PB staff.

 

 

A corrupt module list is basically a file downloaded from ( A ) server that is recognized by PB on ( B ) server as a bad file, if the file from the ( A ) server has been modified in any way then this error occurs b/c the game is seeing two files almost exactly alike and will kick you. It is also Admin accessible and can be used as a manual kick if the admin wants to be a dick and kick you for some reason or another.

where did u get this nonsence? :/

 

this seems to be happenning on ALL windows based dedicated fear servers since august the 11th, i've got 5 windows based fearservers and am the only one with access to the filesystem. ive been away all weekend and only played on those servers after the 11th.

 

The corrupt module list is a bug in PB that needs to be fixed.

 

Me and alot of other admins/players have troubletickets pending at EvenBalance waiting for their reply.

 

Also, Streaming admins caught tampering with Punkbuster components on their server lose access to this website.

I agree with you also anyone who tampers with Punkbuster components should lose all there privialges/access to this site.

Note #2: You may want to try our tool "PBSetup". You can install/update/repair PB with it:

 

1) Download PBSetup for windows from this link:

 

http://websec.evenbalance.com/downloads/windows/pbsetup.exe

 

2) Create a directory like "C:\Program Files\PBSetup" and move pbsetup.exe to this location. Any folder will do, at any location.

 

3) Run PBSetup - (Recommended) Create a desktop shortcut to pbsetup.exe from where you downloaded and then double click on the icon.

In addition, be aware that PBSetup attempts to locate the installation directory of any game automatically. It does this using a series of "game hints". The "game hints" can be registry entries, hardcoded directories, or system environment variables. Although PBSetup currently detects the game installation paths well, there is a chance that we've missed some locations. If you find that PBSetup does not automatically find your game installation, please fill out a trouble ticket and let us know. Please include the game, your OS, and the complete path to your PB folder.
