    PBsetup for LEGACY Games

    THIS ARTICLE IS FROM PBBANS. EVENBALANCE RECENTLY CEASED SUPPORTING THE FOLLOWING GAMES:

    AA2, BF1942, Call of Duty (all formerly pb supported Versions), cysis, cysis wars, D3, ET, FFOW, FC2, q3, Q4, ETQW, MoHA, NfSPS, Prey, RtCW, RSR6, RSV, RSV2, SoF2, Wolf, Warock

    I HAVE BROUGHT IT TO OUR FORUMS TO HELP KEEP AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.


    This is a workaround to install the latest punkbuster update released for games with discontinued PunkBuster support using the original tools and update resources released by http://www.evenbalance.com 2002-2011.


    For Linux skip to footnote.

    HowTo:
    Extract the archive to any folder, change directory to the new folder

    (double-click pbsetup+legacy)

    From there run pbsetup.

    Add the legacy game and the proper Game_Path (not! /pb), that is: where the Game.exe is. To check the Game_Path just ALT+Return the Windows-Shortcut to the Game [copy+paste the 2nd line's "Execute in:" Value].

    Then run menu item 'check for updates' and pbsetup will download the latest pb-update (*) to the proper /pb location(s).

    See also: HowTo.gif

    Limitations:
    pbsetup will download a new pbgame.htm without legacy games each time when it is run.
    Thus it is recommended to unpack the archive again from scratch if needed.

    Disclaimer:
    This is a workaround to install the latest punkbuster update released for games with discontinued punkbuster support using the original tools and update resources released by http://www.evenbalance.com 2002-2011.
    No fixes, updates or support will be delivered, this workaround is delivered as is.
    (*) No warranty is given if or how long the download resources used to pb-update the listed games will stay available online.
