Hi everyone.
Ive got a small problem. Ive installed the new 1.32 patch for Quake 3 arena, an now when I start the game an internet connection atempts to start and the screen goes all white. I Have to use the task manager to stop it. The game then runs as normal.

Is this a new thing with punkbuster or have I got a worm problem?

Yeah, It's probably just punkbuster trying to check updates. :icon14:

Its punkbuster.

rename the /pb directory to something else.

once you get q3 up and running you can turn pb off with console commands:

/seta cl_punkbuster 0
/seta pb_sv_disable

then you can rename the PB folder back to /pb

if your playing online and need pb enabled, enable it in the game menu.
