A curse

I think for me to curse. As soon as I go on any server - it breaks. Companions of the suspects and hostages run into the wall, who was arrested and was sitting on her lap - just freeze like statues. Can not be something to use to write in chat ... In general, in what could be the problem? Help me, please.

Well first instinct would be reinstalling the game...have you tried that?

Did you crash or something before this issue popped up? Did you do something to the program files? Might be some error file saved in its folder that you could delete.

Reinstalling should do the trick if you need to though.

It sounds like an issue with your internet connection

West, the fact of the matter is that I can move around the level. You should be familiar with the situation, when suddenly the timer before the start or end of the round stops, you press the "Ready", but nothing happens, and your message will not appear in the chat room (neither you nor others can not see it), during the game all start run straight until you collide with the wall (and still running), you press the action button next to the door, etc., but nothing happens ... the list goes on. And it happens to all that, and they have nothing left to do but to reconnect to the server.

Before reinstalling, I would recommend you to try the game in single player. If it works, problem is most probably from your internet settings. If it doesn't work, then you can try to reinstall.

Where did you get the game? (Buy cd? Buy on internet?)

How to explain ... In general, you are greeted crash the server. The "symptoms" I have already described. This happens when I go to the server.

I download it. License.

it deffo sounds like an internet connection issue, it happens to all of us from time to time. A good way to test if you suspect it, is to fire your weapon, if the bullet count does not alter, you have crashed.

Check for programs using the internet at the time you are playing, and close them. Also check any firewall settings.

Ah yes, if it's SWAT, whenever it happens for me, I can no longer reload, yell, open doors, or just any action. I can unload the rest of my mag with the weapon on hand, but I can't reload once it's dry or switch weapons.

If that is what is happening for you then like everyone else has said, it's the internet.

Do what WIZ recommended, check firewall, maybe you need to add some exception to that or your AV program.

Nick, this error just can't simply be a single player.

Everyone else - thank you, I'll check it.

He meant to test it out on single player (offline) rather than multi player so you can single out the source of your issue.

If you have no issues in single player, you can single out internet as the problem since single player does not require you to be connected to the internet.

If the issue persists in single player, your files are corrupted or something, so you should try reinstalling.

Jack, I find it hard to believe that you don't know why you are causing the crashes. According to the server logs, you are running software to cause the crash. Stay out of servers if you know you are crashing them. Why ruin everyone else's games, unless you're an arse.

I've had to lock the server to keep you out for the time being.

Sorry for that. Can't you say what kind of software can cause such crashes?

It has come to my attention that you may have illegal software installed on your PC that is designed to cause DDOS attacks on our servers. I urge you to uninstall it immediatly or, by law we are required to report it to the authorities. The effects of which could result in anything between your ISP cutting you off or local law enforcemnt agencies getting involved.

You got your game one of three ways: You bought it retail either disc and key or direct to drive, you got it from a friend or someone else with the disc and key, or...you downloaded it illegally from the internet.

If you downloaded it from the internet, I guess you could have gotten a version that was modified by the person who uploaded it to run this software as part of the game itself.

I suggest, if you acquired the game via option 3 or something similar, that you uninstall and purchase a retail version and see if your luck improves.

The only other option is...well...that you are pretending you don't know what is going on while making these posts and you are laughing at us for trying to help someone who is being malicious to our team.

Random, you yourself have seen what happens when I go to the server. Why would I make fun of you, April 1 has long passed.

Yes, I got the game through the third option. The fact that in our stores the game is long gone, the money either, in Russia downloading games from torrents has become common practice. Nobody are not punished us, nobody cares. DDoS I also never dealt with, I do not need.

And I do not think your police trample in Russia.

I removed the image, so I have to download again...

Jack,

The situation is simple. You have an illegal download. I dont think it is common practise in Russia to download from torrents. More common practise with people who wont pay for things.

Now to solve your situation you need to delete the download from your system then check it for all sorts of viruses, spyware, and any hacking programs. Next buy a legal copy of the game. Amazon is not banned in Russia the iron curtain was lifted a long time ago mate.

What barrier are you going to put up next ?

Random, yes, confirmed. "The options you specified are invalid".

That's actually not the error message you get when you are banned from a server. It's something else about your game.

If you just google "the options you specified are invalid swat 4", you get a bunch of results...perhaps those would fix your problem. Are you using "Player" as your name? If so change it, then retry.

Take a step back and look at it from our perspective. We have an unknown player coming to our server and crashing it, thereby, preventing us from using it by his repeated joining. If you just read those two sentences and you didn't know we were talking about you, would you then consider that to be malicious? If you are honest with yourself, I think you would see it that way.

1. I am not so much an unknown.
2. Crashes you do not have a very rare event, right? At first I thought it was just a server error, and came again.
3. So in this case would not be worth to accuse me of DDoS. It's a bit different.

Okay, let's not stir up the conflict. Anyway, thanks for help.

upd
Still, you ban me.

Jack, we can only go on the information provided in the log files generated when someone does this. Nobody accused you, we just warned you that our logs were indicating such an event.
I personally do not know you from Adam, all i know is that our log files flagged you up. It may well have been a false alarm, but i can only go on the information i have.
