NOW THE TRICKEY BIT :p To play on a 3.2.6 etpro server you need the 2.60b cleint patch, this is incompatable with all previous versions! However as a workaround
download the renamed patch FROM HERE WHICH I RENAMED FROM ET.EXE TO ET1.EXE .PUT THIS IN YOUR MAIN ET FOLDER NEXT TO ET.EXE . make a shortcut and place this on your desktop ,if you have done it right when you click on this shortcut you can connect to 3.2.6 etpro servers but not to 3.2.5 or lower. To connect to NON etpro 3.2.6 servers start your et the normal way with ET.exe ( thats the one that no doubt says enemy territories )
Alternativley you may download ghost : mcsteves installer http://www.bogeylicker.co.uk/et/ET-2.60b-installer.exe and the reverter : http://www.bogeylicker.co.uk/et/ET-2.60-revert.exe they are files for automatic instal/revrtion so you can play on both types of servers because he is v kind..!!
I will make a helpfile which i will post soon .. Cheers -=[<font color=blue><b>-=[MC]=-</b></font>]=- GOBBO
DO NOT OVERWRITE YOUR ET.EXE USING THE AUTO INSTALLER UNLESS YOU ONLY WANT TO PLAY ON ETPRO 3.2.6 SERVERS OR CAN USE THE GO BACK OPTION MCSTEVE HAS POSTED. EG you need to get both files

OUR SERVER WILL BE UPDATING TO 3.2.6 ON 1ST OCTOBER BE WARNED GET READY FOR THE CHANGE :p

well as server is empty atm and no one seems to get the idea that a client patch to help the client not be hacked is a good idea then i think stuff it and move us to etpro 3.2.4 or even etpro 3.2.0 with et 1.02 patch the very first one... well i dont really but i am thinking of rolling back to et pro .2.5 any input will be a help.

I really didn't think that it was that difficult to do with your simplified guide. It's only been a couple of days, why not give the masses until the end of the week or so? It's our server, do you really see this newer version of ETpro helping us? Think about it this way, if people can't update to play, do they really want to play? The regulars at very least.

That's my opinion, but I'm working on 4 hours of sleep so it might be a little skewed!

i agree with lucky.. you just put it on.. give it a little time.. if the server is still not populated in (x) amount of time.. then switch back.. my opinion though

Hi guys :P been a while since my last post, i guess i will be back in business in a couple of days, angel will have her new pc :D and i will get the leftovers :cry: , for now i´m trying to config the router, opened the doors 27950, 27951 and 27960, got the new ET patch going but when connecting to server, all i see is awaiting challenge, any ideas?


Btw only did it on UDP protocol as listed, is it enough :roll:
If it is terrible enough... just think how terrible it can gets ;)
