Few problems with servers (ET 3.00 problems?)


(Destroy666) #1

There are some weird problems with our servers lately and I have no idea when and how they started.

  1. Our Jaymod (2.2.0) servers don’t accept people without GUID. Error: “You have an invalid GUID. This may be a temporaly Problem. Try to reconnect.” Servers with other mods don’t have it.
  2. In Sniper (Jaymod+EnhMod+QMM+omni-bot) there are random ET crashes for random players on mapchange, without any error. Just when time reaches 0:00. Don’t know if in other servers too.
  3. Some names in all ours servers show without colors in XFire, trackbase etc.
  4. Beginners (Nitmod 2.2) and Trickjump (ETJump 2.0.0) don’t show up in serverlist
    Last 2 are most likely ET 3.00 problems, coloring bug started after updating to 0.6.6 version and disappearing servers in serverlist since beggining of using (0.5.2). First 2 never seen until now. Any idea what may be wrong? Have any of you similar experience with ET 3.00?

  1. Maybe it’s because of et 3.0.0
    You can allow/disallow users with sv_allownoguid and edit the kick message with sv_guidkickmsg (default ALL people are allowed to connect/this is RECOMMENDED as many people DO NOT play with guids anymore)
    sv_allownoguid “1” allows people with no guid(default). Setting this to 0 disallows people to join without guid (not recommended)

  2. Try to add the portcvar fro 2.6b masterlist:
    set net_port_extra 27965

As I said it happens only in Jaymod servers. This setting is default in all our servers. Now I noticed something more (wrote a bit wrong in 1st post) - it accepts people without GUID but some not. It seems to only disallow people who had GUID but don’t have anymore. When I told few people to temporarily delete etkey from etmain, all had this error. When they connect it shows only ‘xxx connected’, they get kicked immadiately without any ‘xxx disconnected’ or kick reason in console. Those connects aren’t also logged in server.log

About net_port_extra - I’m sure it’s set up correctly. Those 2 were shown up at the beginning of using new version, but later disappeared. Have found someone with similar problem http://forum.trackbase.net/threads/1429-Server-isn-t-showed-in-server-list

Playernames. It’s really weird. Mostly it’s only 1-3 players. Sometimes someone’s name is colored, sometimes not. For example this server: http://et.trackbase.net/server/1799/ Atm '545.3nforcer! and -TWC|Leedzor|FaF show without colors, although they have them in-game.

I think you should contact Paul to solve your issues (I’m pretty sure that at least the problem with white nicks is ET 3.00 related).

It’s Trackbase side not ET 3.00 side. We didn’t change anything what could cause these problems,As I said it’s just Trackbase side or random unsolved problems.

How’s TB connected to XFire or SL? There is same as in TB, so it’s some bug with coloring names in received info from server. Or I don’t understand something. But that doesn’t matter much for me. Wondering more about other problems, as they affect activity on servers in much bigger extent.

I think TB uses info from getstatus. This was the getstatus i retrieved from around this noon (CET).

If it helps ? Or even matters ?

As you can see, no color codes on said names, so TB or SL cant have them (or they use other way to retrieve data i don’t know about).
