Hi there. I have posted some weeks ago another forum topic where i wasnt able to connect on some servers. Problem didnt solve anyway after reinstall under windwos 7.

Another problem nowadays is that i can connect on freeze mania server when there is no password.
When i connect with password (its the right pw) i always get. "Invalid Game Folder" Problem.

Perhaps someone can help me with both, i think its the same, problem.

Re: Cant connect on servers with password

when this server is passworded it probably has pure enabled too, so it means that you got some additional/invalid or modified pk3's in your q3.

backup your config and reinstall the game and e+ mod. after that insert your old config and try to connect again.

Gigabyte B450 Aorus Elite | AMD Ryzen 7 5800x (water cooled) | 32GB DDR4 3200MHz | Gigabyte Radeon Rx 6800XT | Creative Audigy RX | 500GB SSD (macOS 13) + 1TB SSD (W11P) + 3TB HDD | Apple Magic Keyboard + Logitech G603

Like camel and beazt said, when server is password protected it has pure on, sometime punkbuster is on, so probably some of your pk3 files are edited/modified, try to download other quake3 or buy original Tongue, backup tour cfg reinstall quake and you should be able to join next time.

Quake 3 dont need installation, i have windows 7 32 bit, and just unpacked game and play. Try to turn off User Account Control, maybe this can make problems, idk i have it always off.

Re: Cant connect on servers with password

So. Today i came home again. I Put my Quake 3 Arena cd in the laptop. Took all files from the cd to Desktop folder i called Quake3. I downloaded Excessive Plus Mod from front Page. I installed the Pointrelease 1.32.

And now i get this:

Server disconnected. Unpure
client detected. Invalid .PK3 files referenced

The problem accures at AIM+ or DOK or ... But its the same servers like the Problem before. Dunno whats now. I have nothing done - just what i was telling you above.
