Download pbweb from here http://www.evenbalance.com/downloads/pbweb.exe

Put it in quak3arena/pb

Then run it and let it finish. It might take a while. After that try a game again.

Did pbweb report any errors?

Post by **Magic_Blaster** » Fri May 06, 2005 7:45 pm

it did get an error, but not sure what it was

Try running it again and see if you can remember the error this time.

type /pb_webupdate in the console and a wait for a bit
also type /condump error.txt in the console. Then find the file (should be in quake iiii arena\baseq3 or or under the mod you play under), open it, and paste it here.

Nosir, only one down so far. Hadn't even started when I posted that. So,

Of course there will be the usual nonsense posts later on.
