Title: Hardware failure -> Temp-Ban
Post by: abrken on May 24, 2007, 12:53:21 AM

Hi,

What's going on ?

This morning I was playing DP with version 16 on Grafitti server

Then the map has lag forever so i disconnect and relaunch DP 16

Then the server kicked me telling that I was not a registered user and another user has already registered my nickname. lol, that was me !

So I decided to switch to DP 18

I have entered my login in the profile and reconnect to the server.

I was playing for about 1 minute and sundenly the console appears with this kind of message :
"ABRken was kicked because of hardware check failure".

Woa ! first time I get this message. So I have tried to reconnect the server and ... I discovered that I was "Temp-ban"

What this ? what did I make wrong ? My ISP didn't change my IP adress ! I am ABRken ! please help me !

Are you running Linux?

Ok, it seems I have fixed the problem.

I'm running Win XP.

I think it has to do with my installation process.

I have tried to install DP 18 over my existing DP 16 manually. This was THE bad idea !

After using the original DP 18 directory and copying DP 16 map/textures and so files to DP 18 directory, it seems to run just fine.

Thanks,

AbrKen.

Just run the update.  That's what it's for.  No need to manually do anything.
