Quake 3 Authentication
Quake 3 Authentication
Is there some trick to getting Quake 3 to authenticate me on any multiplayer Quake 3 server out there? Every time ive tried, no matter the circumstances, it always times me out due to authentication.
pb authentication might be failing if your configs read only, or if your pb wont update - there is a pbweb applcation - check the faq in this forum
also, do a console dump and look for an explaination of why auth failed (perhaps)
edit OT - how you settling in to Aust? Youve been here a few months? now yea? Hope its all good for you

that image is illegible, try a console dump:
I think this is the command:
/condump condump.txt
also check that its not your router: http://www.evenbalance.com/index.php?page=faq-q3.php
edit check the aussie and new zealand servers - unless your on dial up which might explain the ping.
crap, pbweb has been discontinued!! try this link: http://websec.evenbalance.com/downloads/mac/pbsetup.tgz
you might need to completely remove pb and reinstall it from scratch - anyone else have ideas?
if you can get misanthropias' attention, hes forgotten more than l will ever learn about q3, try messaging him via the TnT forum if needed.

ive long since deleted the screenie, but i think it says
Authentication tim-out
disconnected from server
Im also very sure its not a pb issue, since i have it disabled 9/10 times and ive been told that its not.
It happens on every net server i join, regardless of ping, players, location or pb usage.
Im also using a Mac, and ive read in places that there have been issues with mac authentication in the past, am i wrong?

Ive never had authentication problems where I was accessing a server using the same protocol I have installed for q3.
It may be your router - read the link above on that, and try it out.
other than that, I have no ideas how to help, good luck though
