Error playing...

[danzigk]

Hi everybody,

After few days of getting same error I decided to post on dplogin forum - maybe there are someone who can help me.

So, since a few days, every time I want to play it runs OK then freezez for a few seconds, then works again fine. Meantime I get "Line exceeded 1024 chars, discarded"... at third such message I get kicked out (not by someone, but by my client - I know that becuse when I started a game it just restarted). Of course, when I try to reconnect at same server i get Time-Ban.

What is wrong  
The error started at DP2-build24, now I have build 26 (and no improvement). I use Windows version o PBall.

Thanks a lot.

Hm - try this.  Go to c:\games\paintball2\pball\configs and rename your config.cfg to something else.  Load the game back up, and you will have the default settings.  Try connecting to a server with the default settings and see if you have the same problem.

I deleted all cfg-s files and tried to play... same "line exceeding..." but, this time appear a new message "newbie failed hardware check" - see picture attached.
could it be because some bad driver ? but, witch one - as windoze doesn't complain about any of them...

thanks,

Which version of Windows are you running?  Sounds like not everything loaded.  Have you tried a fresh install of the full version?

hello,

sorry for this sooo late reply (i was involved in something and got no time at all  ).

i deleted everything and reinstall build 26. unfortunately - the error didn't disappear.

windows is XP Proffesional (I also have Check Point vpn-1 secure client installed... i know that cisco vpn have problems with check point... but could this be the source of problems also for paintball2 ?)

what to do ?

What directory did you install it to?

[danzigk]

D:\_Games\Paintball2.

yesterday I installed a virtual machine on my pc (xp professional, without check point and without eset security suite). of course, paintball runs without "line exceeded ..." no more problems - still, this is not a solution for me (in virtual machine video capability isn't very good).

kind regards

victory... or not 

i found out why paintball keeps exceeding 1024 chars - it's a conflict with checkpoint security vpn client 

i unchecked the checkpoint on my network device... and... everything goes fine. still... i need checkpoint

finnaly... I got a new patch for Checkpoint SecuRemote and now everything works fine...
thanks for support.
