Punkbuster
* Some games that have multiplayer ability use Punkbuster technology to reduce cheating. Punkbuster may cause a number of issues with Cedega users. We recommend that you manually update the Punkbuster files for your game installs. To manually update the files visit:
http://www.evenbalance.com/index.php?page=updatepb.php and download the pbweb.x86 script. Copy this script to the pb directory in the game installation directory. For example: /home/USERNAME/.point2play/Battlefield 1942/c_drive/Program Files/EA GAMES/Battlefield 1942/pb. Run the script. The script connects to the Punkbuster website and downloads the latest update files.
* When using Battlefield on punkbuster enabled servers users often get a scrolling OS Exception Notice that makes it almost impossible to receive actual game messages. This notice can be removed by adding:
pb_msgprefix [skipnotify]PunkBuster Client
to the file:
PBClient.con
This file is found in the Battlefield install directory under Mods/BfVietnam/settings/ or Mods/bf1942/settings.
* There are still a number of major issues that must be addressed before PunkBuster can be used reliably under Cedega. We should remind you that PunkBuster is not currently supported under Cedega and attempting to use it MAY RESULT IN GLOBAL HARDWARE BANS from the PunkBuster network.
