After all these years...

Post by quarn »

Hi there.

First of all, this is amazing and im sorry for my english, if there should be any trouble. Im from Denmark 32yrs old and have played the all mighty q3a from the begining.
On a 56k modem to a faster 512kb to my current 8mb. And ofcours we go back to the year 2000 where the bloody game came out and captured the life of the little dane guy 27 years of age.
Ofcours i have been doing other things then be sitting in front of the screen, hell perhaps theres has gone months where i didnt play the game. But honestly i have played q3 and all of its mods for too many, and i mean too many hours. Its sick!.
Ive tryed dusins of other FPS but i allways go back to q3a. Nothing gives the kick like, from a run with plenty of -well -placed series of frags HOLY and just every fxxxxxx thing. You all know what i mean.
Hell on occasions i even tend to be "spiritually" drunk while playing the game. I just love it.

And i cant belive after all these years ive never looked for a forum to q3a. That i find funny. The forum even has recent topics in it. After 7 years on the street, the game is still fxxxxxx excellent.

So hi, and a hug to the oldies and a frag the the nxxbs ;)

I do have a question wich to me is very wierd.
I have got vista installed and the game it self can run very fine
but only on non pb enabled servers. I do can connect to pb enabled servers and pb verifies that all settings are within allowed limits. Fine, i can join the game and i can play just fine, just untill I get fragged, Then i get kick to main screen and console just pops not connected to server. I dont know what happens when you get fragged in q3a, will pb do anything at the exact moment you get fragged ?.
I can frag others and capture flags but when ever i get fragged -it pops to main menu. That is very wierd.

EDIT:
I have tryed different pb commands like -write -security etc. Tryed deleting pb folder, and reinstall of 1.32 realease.
Nothing seems to do the thing and im guessing its pb related but ofcours i dont know for sure.

Welcome to the board!!

As to your PB problem....it might be the video drivers. At one point, I updated my video drivers for my Geforce video card and it broke the game playing on PB servers. The strange thing was that I could play on non-PB servers....check that out and see if thats the case.

Being Vista, you may not have many options when it comes to drivers...if that turns out to be the problem.
