Server Error "Server Uses Protocol 43"


(Dread) #1

Strange,just got a new server…I try and connect and I get
“Server Uses Protocol 43”,and it won’t connect.

My server host is slow at helping,so I figured I’d post it here,you guys help just as much.

Any help would be appreciated,thanks

AFAIK protocol 43 is used by Quake 3 Arena. Which game do you expect to be hosted?


(Dread) #3

RTCW ET

Thanks

Some providers let you choose between several games. Maybe you have to choose your game first and need to configure it with a web interface?

The server is probably using a different ET version than yours( Or a different game ). Which version do you have installed? What server IP/port? :slight_smile:


(Dread) #6

ME: RTCW ET (Patch 2.60)
SERVER: RTCW ET (Not sure)

LOL,how do I see which version my server is…sorry guys just got this server

I think if you post the IP (with port), someone will be able to find out which game is running :slight_smile:

lol wow. protocol 43 was Q3 versions 1.11 - 1.16. we’re talking ancient stuff here.

et 2.55 = 82
et 2.56 = 83
et 2.60 = 84

edit - here’s a bunch from the ASE filters.txt, since i’m looking at it:

43 = Q3:A 1.11 - 1.16 + Demo
45 = Q3:A 1.17
46 = Q3:A 1.25
48 = Q3:A 1.27
50 = RtCW MP Demo
55 = RtCW MP Test 1
56 = RtCW MP Test 2
57 = RtCW 1.0 - 1.1
58 = RtCW 1.3
59 = RtCW 1.32 - 1.33
60 = RtCW 1.4*
66 = Q3:A 1.29 - 1.30
67 = Q3:A 1.31
68 = Q3:A 1.32
82 = W:ET 1.0 (2.55)
83 = W:ET 1.02 (2.56)
84 = W:ET 2.60

LOL wow,I dont know I just bought it. So it seems like I have to update it? about 30 times?


(Shaderman) #10

No. Worst case would be two times I think from ET 2.55 to 2.56 and finally 2.60. But first the server has to run the game you ordered (ET).
