PB issue. Can we please make players aware by disable rating of that server like SL did while back for servers not running PB as it should or running with totally modified files?

\pb_plist
\pb_alist
\pb_kick

None of the client PB commands work on that server. I asked admin on that server and he said PB is not up to date. Even with PB not up to date pb_plist should work unless you patch the PB. I camped server for 45 mins under different names and no single PB kick was issued.

Then people complain PB doesn't do anything while admins are running fake or modified PB.

Thanks

Same feeling for me: all my team is now playing on this server, because there is no lag !
So I did try /pb_sv_writecfg, it works, and copy all their variables in server PB cfg, but lag is still present on mine.
Maybe they have found a way to have PB and no lag (or maybe you are right, it is a false PB)

Their PB variables :

pb_sv_writecfg writes down your own pb-config not the servers one.
But since the server not responding to a player command , I decided to deactivate ranking for it.
Even if pb is enables, we dont rank servers not using the most current version of the AC solution.

Thanks for reporting this

Hey $mart, I have an advice for you - you can test with pb_sv_sleep 100 and pb_sv_pktSendMode 1 on your server if you want to decrease PB lag a lil'.

Posted by: $mart Aug 28 2011, 08:03 AM

Thanks for the pb_sv_pktSendMode Dragon! - I put it immediately.
Good Week End everybody

Try pb_sv_CvarFreq 3 instead of pb_sv_CvarFreq 6 and see if it helps. If you are using cheat scans make sure they are up to date and not old ones. Some admins like to use cheat scans from all anti cheat sites and then complain it lags. Use the optimized version from PBBans.

Also, sometimes it's not PB causing lag. It's more of server host problem where they put 30 servers on there quad core machine. Once you get 100-150 players+ on one box, it all starts lagging depending on the machine and BW.

GSP also plays good role in server lag.

Posted by: $mart Aug 29 2011, 07:51 AM

Thanks daredevil, I've set it to 3, hope it will be better. And no I dont use special'cheat-scan, just running PunkBuster Server for ET (v1.809 | A1382 C2.254) Enabled.
And I'm sure these particular lags come from PB and not from my GSP because when I set PB off, all is right.
PS:But I'm obliged to run PB as some clan members are so good that beginners think they are cheater lol

I got a question.

Could fakeservers from top places (like: http://et.splatterladder.com/?mod=serverinfo&idx=527415) be excluded from serverlist?

Posted by: schnoog Oct 20 2011, 05:16 PM

Thanks for the info.
The "clone" is downgraded by negative Reputation Points, so it will not be on top of the list.

Schnoog

Feel free to report any facade server. It`s not the sence behind SL to list server more than once (OK, atm. multiversion were shown twice, but to change this is a major change in the structur of the SL codebase)

Posted by: Dragon! Nov 3 2011, 12:57 PM

They are excluded from global serverlist, but when I change 'show mod' to Jaymod only, they are still in the top.


Posted by: schnoog Nov 3 2011, 01:57 PM

Thanks for the info, never tried it (shame on me)

Will try to solve it ASAP


Posted by: schnoog Nov 3 2011, 02:23 PM

Should be fixed now.
If you find more bugs, don`t hesitate to contact me.

Thanks

Kind Regards
Schnoog

I think they don't care about this... But I do care and just wanted it to be fair :)

Posted by: TomDome Feb 14 2012, 05:58 PM

Thanks for reporting Dragon! but the server shows as not PB protected meanwhile. The update can take a little while until it is displayed correctly when changeing from PB to no PB and so on.

Posted by: Dragon! Oct 12 2012, 04:31 PM
