hello again everyone:

i can't find the disc i copied/saved the wolf et folder onto and have been trying to reinstall the game.
i see the BBA files are on the D/L section and D/L them from there instead of the server.

i extracted these files (jmod directory files) and put them into the jmod folder but the server still disconnects me saying they are missing those files.

are they supposed to go into the ETmain folder? or should i extract the .rar in the jmod folder instead of copying them over?

alot of them ask to write over others i've extracted. is there a specific order to extract them?


if i had the disc i could just copy the jmod folder like i usually do

thanks for any help

Here is a shot of BBA's pk3 downloads page. Notice that each column is headed either by '-etmain Directory' or '-jaymod Directory', which tells which folder to put each file into.

Overwriting old files should be okay and almost guarantees uncorrupted files. If you are paranoid, move all pk3 files to another location before downloading replacement copies.

You know that a lot of the files in our download directory are not being run on the server at this time? You could cross-check with the current map lists...here is the list for ET #1:

Download all the files with BBA in their names, or let the server auto-download them, as they will mostly be short files.

Here is a list of some with the more obscure file names.

Marrakech Streets 2 - et_mor2_night_final

ETDO Fuel Depot etdo 1

ETDO Radar Laboratory etdo 2

ETDO Launch Facility etdo 3

ETDO Mechatronics etdo 4

ETDO Pipeline Refinery etdo 5

ETDO Oil Kombinat etdo 6

I think. Just download all the 'etdo' files.

No problem, Kakeroo. Watching you administer BBA-style is what first got me to consider applying to the clan.

Just paying it forward.
