SAC couldn't authorize/Anti-Cheat Violation problem

[Threepwood]

Firewall - Windows Firewall


Anti-virus - avast! antivirus version 4.8.1356 professional


OS -MS Windows XP Professional SP3


Problem -
First of all, I use DLoader to get to mb2, then I join a SAC serv. I get kicked out in approx. 20 seconds and get the "SAC couldn't authorize bla..".

Then I have disabled/closed all active software, including xfire and the firewall. Same occurance. Then I disabled the antivirus, and instead got kicked to desktop and this in the consol (the relevant part):

109190 files in pk3 files

Removing replacements didn't help.


EDIT: Problem FIXED,
"WARNING: You are missing some files referenced by the server:
MBII/MBII.pk3 (local file exists with wrong checksum)"
This indicated I had a wrong checksum MBII.pk3, had to replace it. But also had ati drivers that were identified as cheat, which vortex already fixed.

Cody, maybe update Vista to SP2? :P

[commander_cody]

You sure you did this?

Put the client SAC in your gamedata folder

Execute DVersion.exe. If it says "Place me in your game and verify you have an original executeable! " get the original jamp.exe (http://sac-project.co.cc/download/)

Just in case

[commander_cody]

ok, problem solved ;p

[Threepwood]

yeaah, I have done it, still nothing. ;(

[Basic]

Same problem here :(

[Lervish]

ok, problem solved ;p
Mind telling others how you managed to do that in case someone has the same problem? :)

I think that a thread should be create to know the problems and how to fix them.

Suddenly i have the same problem, i was playing fine yesterday but ever since i havnt installed anything and my anti-virus hasnt quarantined or deleted anything, so its just suddenly decided to stop me from playing, i connect, get in, after about 15-30 seconds of being in the server it kicks me and says: "did not successfully authorize (SAC)!"

I got the same error today (1024) running Windows 7 and MSE.

Well when I download it now there are some files not in it, then there was before (prob first release) anyway this is what I did:

Place SAC files in gamedata folder --> Run de SAC application (this takes you into JAMP) then load MBII from JAMP.

It worked for me, I only have problems while spawning takes a sec or 5...

Try to see if it's renamed to something like z_zzMBII.pk3 and remove the z_zz's. I've got a similiar problem, for me it says "And WARNING: You are missing some files referenced by the server: MBII/SAC.pk3 You might not be able to join the game Go to the setting menu to turn on autodownload, or get the file elsewhere" :/

and I've still got 3072 error 8D

[Bliss]

I've also got the 1024 error, but what's the 3072 error :o?

That's the server file. Or well, it's supposed to be, it doesn't work for me.. had to download the files from Deathspike's post.

Indeed as Sxx posted, these are broken server files you don't need. Server owners should follow the instructions from my sticky in this forum section to get the proper packages to run a server with (linux works fine but doesn't need the pk3). I'm trying to get the site links replaced with the proper ones.
