hi there guys i keep gettin kicked by pb this is the message i get when kicked

: you have been kicked via pb ( for 1 minute) violation Game Integrity #20006


can any 1 tell me what this is and how to sort it out ?


tnx in advance

When PunkBuster is unable to verify that a player's gaming environment is functioning properly and/or has not been alterred, an Integrity violation is raised. This also involves the detection of modified game or PunkBuster files. These violation numbers are between 10000 and 29999.

Guess you'll have to reinstall PB with the new setup program.

Or just quit and reconnect.

tnx deej

I keep getting kicked for a cvar rate of 40000. Can nayone tell me where this is set?

um, in the console...
/set rate 25000

If you don't use someone's config, /seta rate 25000 so the change is saved. Otherwise, you're going to have to find the line where rate is set in whatever config you use. (Gotenks solution works but I can see him using it once then complaining it's broken again next time he opens ET)

I noticed some servers which force the rate to 40000 ...
And the result is that players get kicked for it when they connect to other servers.

Thanks for the reply's. Ragnar: this makes sense as it does not happen all the time, just on some servers.

Thanks

imho the upper limit should never be checked for rate, as this is what sv_maxrate is for, but some admins do it... but iirc the forcecvar should only change temporarily... unless you have the backups disabled

Is there any rational reason for wanting rate pushed that high anyway?

I disabled backup since it makes me lag on some servers (e.g. pmove_fixed 1 is not allowed, but I have bound it together with my jump key. So everytime I press jump, ETPro would make a backup ...)

There is no reason at all. AFAIK the engine limits max rate to 25000, so everything above this doesn't make a difference.
