PunkBuster Update

[Variable]

PunkBuster update link in the controls works but it actually does not do anything when you are in-game. Is there something I missed? This for the America's Army game.

 

Thanks!

seems to work on my servers

I press the little no punks dude and

Of course my pb did not need to be updated, so all it did was restart the pb engine again. and you'll not really see this while playing online. Maybe a little lag, + all the cvars get reloaded , and tasks etc get spewed to the screen again.

 

Other then that, what are you looking for it to do?

PS,

that's what logs and time stamps are for

press the little button, go look at the logs..

(make sure you not the time so that you can see what log to look at)..

I've had this issue as well. I just downloaded the update from the site and updated it manually.

[Variable]

I created a new game server and also pressed the punk dude. This is the pop-up massage:

 

Starting the Punkbuster update...

****Don't close this window. If you close this window the update will still be executed on the server****

 

Downloading the newest version of Punkbuster...

 

Punkbuster update has been downloaded successfully.

 

Restarting the game server...

 

Game server has been restarted.

 

The punkbuster update has completed. You may close this window.

 

However, when you join the server it says that the server is running on an older version of punkbuster and that it needs to be updated. Not the exact message but something like that.

 

This update link of Punnkbuster is it only to upload the pbsvnew.dll and then you would have to manually execute this in-game?

 

Thanks!

Same thing happens in Call of Duty 1.5. After a few server restarts it stops though.

Do you think that there is a setting somewhere that would fix this? It would be a shame if this feature is there and does not work correctly. I think it is awesome to have.
