[cod] PB server not able to update clients

Fri Dec 14 09:50:57 EST 2007

So is this something that will be done automatically? Or do we need to update our servers with the new files?

from evenbalance's website:

Friday 12.14.2007 [5:30AM]

Version 1.625 of the PB Server for COD4 has been released to our PB Master Servers for auto-update and to our website download page. This update reverts to PB Client version 2.009 due to recent PB Client builds not auto-updating smoothly. A new PB Client build will be released soon to correct this issue. Kicking has been temporarily disabled at our masters so as not to negatively affect players who do not have PB Client version 2.009.

Thanks for your effort, but i had no troubles with our servers. ;)

Just noticed what Geoff said, that several servers (windows server as well) kept kicking players for an not updated PB.

So the clients had the problems with updating their PB Version, not the servers. ;)
