Download Wolfenstein Enemy Territory 2.60d -> http://downloads.aaxxss.com/files/WolfET.2.60d.dmg

Drag the Wolfenstein ET folder to your Applications folder.

Run the punkbuster installer.

Download a punkbuster etkey -> http://etkey.org/

Put a copy of the etkey in the following location: ~/Library/Application Support/Wolfenstein ET/etmain

- Launch the game to create these directories or create these directories manually.​

Set screen resolution via the following commands in the game console (press ~ after launching the game to view game console) :

/r_customwidth XXXX
/r_customheight XXXX
/r_mode -1​

Didn't work for me

Hi,

I followed your suggestions and even added to autoexec.cfg the following:
seta r_colorbits "32"
set r_allowExtensions 0

However, when I try to connect to a server, the game quits and appears this message "VM_Create on UI Failed".

Anyone know how to solve this?

Thanks!
 
Why have you set the following args?

seta r_colorbits "32"
set r_allowExtensions 0

I believe "set r_allowExtensions 0" is causing the issue.
 
So I used to play ET a fair amount before I switched to mac in 2008 but I've never managed to get punkbuster to work right on the Mac version.

I always get "cannot authenticate" errors in the console and kicked for "PB INIT failure"

I've just deleted both /Applications/Wolfenstein ET and /Library/Application Support/Wolfenstein ET

and downloaded a fresh copy. I put the key from etkey in (it didn't work at all without that)

right back to the same problems!

Anyone get this to work?

I just changed my old macbook for a new mac book pro on lion. installed wolfet 2.60 d + pb + et key.
when i launch the game, it sounds like a bomb is exploding in the computer. desktop freezes and i need to restart.

is there something wrong with the version ? should i go for 2.60c + patch ?
 
Perfect for me, unless 2 details ...

Perfect,

1) unless for the sound "click problem" ... solution for me :

added the

~/Library/Application\ Support/Wolfenstein\ ET/etmain/autoexec.cfg

file with :

seta r_colorbits "32"
seta r_mode "-1"
seta r_customwidth "1680"
seta r_customheight "1050"




2) unless for the punkbuster that kicked me ... solution for me here :

Will all this work with Mountain Lion too? I'm guessing yes.

i have an :apple: 10.8.3, so just try ... and tell me :D

the main problem i get (not explained in any forum) was the "punkbuster" INIT/KICK/****** problem when the game was loaded and connected to my favorite 188.165.230.146 server :mad: :

the 2) punkbuster update was necessary ...
 
Uninstall ET completely

hello everybody,

I got some issues, my ET stays fixed on just one game server, which appears in the main windows menu. I have no idea how this server got preference in my game but I can't find no way to get rid of it, plus the game keep crashing every time I try to play.


How can uninstall the whole ET? does anybody knows all the relative folders' paths on mac in the library sections?

I found some and erased them but the problem persists.

I'm on mac lion 10.7.5

thank you in advance
