NewbieDeathShooter Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Howzit, I got a real problem. I try play Wolfenstien ET but whenever I try join a server it says awaiting gameplay and then it starts downloading tons of stuff. I manage to join a few servers that don't require any downloads. Thanx for any help in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aniky Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Mostly u need to download server files that re needed for joining the server. If u did fresh install u will need to download jaymod mod from there which will start automatic and all the maps that ur missing, if there's anything else apart from that, its server custum packs. Would be good if u could post a screenshot of that file u downloading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewbieDeathShooter Posted April 14, 2010 Author Share Posted April 14, 2010 i downloaded jaymod mod and a bunch of custom servers maps but i still got the same problem. I also downloaded W-ET 2.60 patch but that didn't make a difference. When i joined one of the servers the same download message comes up saying "downloading http://94.75.233.44/faredirect/etmain/venice_ne4,pk3".

hobbit Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Then just wait for download to finish? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewbieDeathShooter Posted April 15, 2010 Author Share Posted April 15, 2010 Then just wait for download to finish? I did that but then the server either times out or the download screen starts showing that the download is 106% finished and that i've got -5min remaining Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTF-Berzerker Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 I did that but then the server either times out or the download screen starts showing that the download is 106% finished and that i've got -5min remaining Like said upper , when you enter a server , sometime you will be downloading files directly on the FTP of the server hoster , like maps , mods , skin etc ... So you just need to be patient , dont forget this command , really usefull to toggle on/off download set cl_allowdownload 1 set cl_allowdownload 0 1 = You will allow the server to send you the required file to play 2 = You wont allow the server to send you the required files to play , so you will either recieve this message Missing pk3 Files ... If its a fresh instal , be sure u enabled PunkBuster , since FA are PB Protected servers If you get Punkbuster error , or anything else that dont allow you to play on a PB Protected server , update your PB , follow the steps on this website http://www.evenbalance.com/index.php?page=pbsetup.php Hope that help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewbieDeathShooter Posted April 17, 2010 Author Share Posted April 17, 2010 Is your problem solved? So, so. I had to reformat my drive and re-install my W-ET again. Instead of installing patch 2.60 I installed patch 2.55 most of the servers work as long as I join through xfire or gamespy not through the ET server. thanxs for all the help guys!
