Punkbuster Problem

[Sully]

I get kicked in COD2 with this message "server disconected kicked via PunckBuster (for 10 minutes) Cvarcg_hudobjectiveMaxRange=10000 "
Bunkbuster is enabled and I believe bunkbuster is up to date.
How can I fix this?
-Thanks

I was receiving a similar problem w/ ET - apparently somehow my config was changed by a mod to set a cvar out of the acceptable range. One temporary solution was to open up the console and manually set the value to something inside of the listed range; a longer term was to hunt down the config file and replace it.

Once you're connected to that server, use a command like /PB_CVARLIST to see what the ranges are supposed to be. You should then be able to do a /set cvarname value.

How do you get into the console to make the changes ? I use the ~ key and it would not let me do anything with those instructions.

With some games, you'll need to include a command line argument to enable the console.

I'm not sure about your specific game, but ET was something like /set <CVAR> <value>. When you logon to a server you probably see some warnings flash, they give you a few seconds before kicking you, I think. Those should give you an idea of the acceptable ranges.
