Topic moved to ET Help Desk

ok, you have deleted you last post so i guess that your test didn't give anything

that happened on different mods, so don't comes from a pack or a map..
you can try to save your packs, maps, profiles and etkey and re-install et, will not take lot of time and you'll see if that comes from game itself (btw, don't keep .dll files)

soz im a lil noobs, when i save them do i just put them into a folder and delete ET and reinstall?

by **mem** » Tue Apr 17, 2007 17:38

don't delete et

copy/paste all files you need in a folder called by exemple 'et_save' with this structure :

*maps : et_save/etmain/ (so, a folder called 'etmain' in your new folder 'et_save' in which you'll put all your maps)

*each ps (or others) pk3 : et_save/"mod_folder"/ (so, if you copy your etpub packs, put them in et_save/etpub/)

*profiles : et_save/"mod_folder"/profiles/"you_profile_name"/ (by exemple : et_save/noquarter/profiles/MissFits/)

*etkey : et_save/etmain/

if you have custom configs, put them in right folders too

then, uninstall et (don't erase it) and re-install, hope that will work

Edit : this way will, if all is fine, just erase all standard game data, so the files you'll save in et_save are just here to avoid any problem (exept your etkey and profiles, this ones will be erased too), you can also, to be sure, erase the 'Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory' folder after the uninstall and copy/paste again each file in each folder from your et_save, this method will be more long but better, you really choose what you keep or not

:S but if i scroll up there aare many many things

About screenshots u take>
I seems that your ET lost maps files from PK3 files.
It allways looks like this, when all the maps files are not loaded correctly.
In my opinion, you have to reinnstal ET, as Memnoch wrote.
Save only your ET key, and f.... all the old PK3 files.
You will have to download them from dedicated servers once again.
Did you checked your system for addawares and viruses?

i reinstalled, and it looks like i will have to dlete pk3's and maps but i will keep trying things see what happens
