hidden [][][][][][][]x.pk3 file


(dribbler99) #1

Hi,

My basic installation of ET appears to have been modded by an et-zone.de pk3 file which has changed all the menu options to having red characters. It appears to be loading a file in etmain/ called something like [][][][][][][][]x.pk3 which I believe is making the changes.

I’d like to remove this change but it doesn’t appear in loaded mods and also the above [][][][]x.pk3 file doesn’t show in the etmain directory.

Anyone else seen this problem and know what to do to remove it?

Cheers!!

Are you searching “[][][][][][][][]x.pk3” ?

I guess these [][][][][][][][] symbols are letters that ET doesnt show… for example § and such symbols. So dont search [][][][][][][][], but a pack with strange name. :slight_smile:

Thats a bad way for clans todo it, should never been in etmain…

Some like to ship garbage in etmain, so people are force to have a modified menu with an ugly ‘Join our server(s)’ button… When they don’t go as far as modifying the main menu itself (background, music, mouse icon, …).

New version of silEnT mod will prohibit the use of them.
But I’ve even noticed much more vicious than a single “ugly” button : on a very popular ETPro server, when you click PLAY ONLINE, the serverlist is empty, so the temptation to click on the ad-buttons is high … Anyway, clicking a second time on PLAY ONLINE brings the list back :slight_smile:

If clans need this stuff you should rename your modfolder to your clanname and keep it there…

Hi all,

This kind of practice is purely & clearly putrid because it disturbs only the new players , finally a bad example !!

They have to propose this “direct_play.pk3” separately (i mean they don’t put this “pk3” on their “server/etmain”)…but it is the player who has to put it himself in his game only if he wants !!

For me , 1 more time it pastes a bad reputation to this awesome game (since longtime it is is true) and while this time they have some forced people to go on their server LOL , in fact these are any poor guys and us we have the hard life , but i don’t give up , i continue to work !!

Take a look guys , my server is the only one server to run its own “Pack HD”…for an unique quality of rendering :slight_smile:
