SlowLoris Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Out of nowhere today I was kicked from the Recruiting server (haven't had a problem in quite awhile), and when I tried to reconnect it said "Invalid GUID..." something or other.... I ended up uninstalling both ET and PB, downloading a new ETkey from ETkey.org, and trying to reinstall, but it still gives me this error about an invalid GUID. In fact, the most recent attempt at installing ET failed completely; it wouldn't even start up! What do I need to do in order to get back on F|A servers in ET? Or any servers for that matter... I know its an outdated game, but I like it, and I assume most of you do as well Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DFighter Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 I think removing the old etkey out of etmain, and download a new 1 and copy this in etmain will help. Make sure punkbuster is enabled and you are ready to go I think Or were you renaming at the time ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drizzt DoUrden Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Not working? If /cl_guid reveals that you have an *Unknown* guid, join a server then type the following: /pb_cl_enable; pb_system 1; pb_writecfg; reconnect; This should solve all issues.

SlowLoris Posted November 10, 2012 Author Share Posted November 10, 2012 @DFighter > I had recently changed my name and then was messing with colors too... @mAdArA* > I tried that, followed the instructions in the guide on how to get a new ETKey/GUID, and I can connect for about a minute before the game freezes and either crashes or kicks me back to the main screen with no explanation. I am apparently banned for ~18 days on F|A Recruiting where I normally play; it says for "respect or gtfo"(?). But why does it say I'm banned from the Jay2 server as well that I hardly ever play on? And even despite those 2 apparent bans, I'm able to play on all the other F|A servers? Although it does freeze/crash like I said, so I'm not really "playing" anything.... This is a weird problem that just arose out of nowhere. One minute I was playing, the next I can't even maintain a connection...??? I checked all of my hardware and my network setup, restarted modems and routers etc. but there hasn't been any change. Anyone else have any ideas?
