Wolfenstein and .wolf directory

I recently lost most of the files in my home directory. I already had Return to Castle Wolfensteing installed on my system, but I get complaintswhen connecting to a multiplayer server about files missing in my ~/.wolf directory - especially relating to punkbuster.

 

Does anything need to be put here, and if so what?

the .wolf directory is where the pb files are kept

 

/.wolf/pb/

[john@bob john]$ cd .wolf/pb

[john@bob pb]$ ls

dll/  pbag.so  pbclold.so  pbsv.so    pbweb.log   scrnshot/  svss/

htm/  pbcl.db  pbcl.so     pbweb.dat  pbweb.x86*  svlogs/

[john@bob pb]$

 

but the directory should be recreated when you start wolf if it was deleted.

I had it stop working on me and the only way i got it fixed was to do a full reinstall, i was able to use the pbweb.x86 manual update program but that was a pain as you had to do it every time you wanted to connect to a server.

Hmmmm - I do seem to have those files installed - but I'm still getting problems. Is there anything else that should be installed under ~/.wolf?

 

I tried to run a local server so that a friend of mine could play a quick game with me - but if I ran the server from Linux, it failed - he would get kicked all the time. When we ran it from Windows (with me playing as a client on Linux) all fine

try downloading the manual update utility from evenbalance (the turkeys who make pb).

pbweb.x86 is the file, make it executable, stick it in your .wolf/pb/ folder and run it.

then start up your game and try to connect to a pb enabled server.
