I tried to play freeze tag for the first time tonight since building my new computer with Windows 8.1 and reinstalling everything.  I got a PB INIT FAILURE error a couple of minutes in.

 

Is there an update I need to find somewhere?  Does anyone know where it is?  Thank you!

Other than going to even balance and doing a manual update I can't tell you. Of course you know my feelings on PB.....It only keeps amateur hacks out.

Install the service. Init = Initialisation - it can't start as you haven't installed it.

@Sitting- duc  au contraire mon frere, the PnkBstrA service is running.  The service is set to "Automatic" startup and apparently starts as a consequence of running the game.  It has to be an update kind of thing.

I don't think even balance is supporting legacy punkbuster anymore @@Frags.  I can't find files for COD WAW at their site any more.  Nor can I find any COD5 patch on our servers anywhere.  We should have whatever punkbuster updates is required available here!

Ah Ha!  How did I miss that?  :wallbash:

(I was looking on the redirect server and couldn't find it there...)

BTW - For those who go looking for it on the redirect, I put it up there now (after getting it from the link Sammy mentioned.)
