I too faced same problem

 

Press ` to pull down console (key below esc)

Type this in console to turn on extensions.

 

/seta r_allowExtensions "1"

 

If you join a server, PB gives you 2 min to turn on extension before it kicks you. So you need to be quick.

 

 

PS : Turning on extensions gives a boost to fps in ET. Th difference is nearly 20 - 40 fps.

ok i typed it in game and it was telling me that it will change when restarting the game so PB kicked me after minute

 

 

THE STORY:

1. extensions "0"

joining a game

typing /seta r_allowExtensions "1"

telling me that will change only with restart

and PB kicking me after 1 minute...

I believe after you change the extensions, you'll also need to do a /vid_restart

 

Oh sorry I forgot to mention it.

Do as SkyeDarkhawk told. Type /vid_restart in console after enabling the extensions.

Do you happen to have an ATi video card with the latest drivers? If so, uninstall them and download the 10.4 Catalyst driver pack and use those. 10.5 and up breaks OpenGL rendering.
