Need to know what to put in .cfg for Master Query

(invictuswolf) #1

Okay…
So here goes…
My server shows up in the in-game favorites query and the Pathfinder favorites query…
However, even when the ET Master server is working, our server does not show up in the Master in-game query or the Pathfinder Master query…
Does that make sense???
This is what I have in my server.cfg right now:

// ----- Master Servers -----
set sv_master5 "master.qtracker.com:27900 "
set sv_master4 “master0.gamespy.com”
set sv_master3 “q3master.barrysworld.com:27950”
set sv_master2 “clanservers.net”
set sv_master1 “wolfmaster.idsoftware.com”
// --------------------------

set sv_master6 “etmaster.idsoftware.com”
set sv_master7 “master.gamespy.com:27900”
set sv_master8 “eg.dynip.com”
qstat -rwm,71 etmaster.idsoftware.com:27960

What else can I do to assure that our server shows up when people query to search for available servers???
Thx in advance 'cause this problem is really pissing me off :???:

afaik you only get 5, and make sure etmaster.idsoftware.com is one of them (sv_master1), ive been using:

// MASTER SERVERS TO REPORT TO

set sv_master1 “etmaster.idsoftware.com”
set sv_master2 “master.gamespy.com:27900”
set sv_master3 “master0.gamespy.com”
set sv_master4 “clanservers.net”
set sv_master5 “eg.dynip.com”

but if i remember right you get a message in console about eg.dynip.com so can probably swap that one out.

Where’d you get the other ones from? No need for wolfmaster.idsoftware.com - thats RTCW. Never seen a rtcw server with q3master.barrysworld.com:27950 or master.qtracker.com:27900 (ill check this one out though :)). Also im guessing you dont need two gamespy references but not at all sure :). TBH i think even if you just have the etmaster one the other browsers should take the info from there.
