JJFS Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 We host a few F.E.A.R. servers but they seem to disappear now from the gamelist ingame. We host the servers on Windows servers and firewall is off. Anyone know about this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIS-MOTHER Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Does it use gamespy? If your answer is yes then check your master server listings. It happens alot with GS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJFS Posted February 20, 2007 Author Share Posted February 20, 2007 Yes it does use gamespy, how I check those master server listings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 What is the IP of the missing server? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECF Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Yeah, must be the master GS list being screwy. As you can see by the link here the server is indeed acive and able to be queried. --Link Removed at client's request-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJFS Posted February 20, 2007 Author Share Posted February 20, 2007 Yes but the weird thing is that it was good 2 days ago and before that but now suddenly it's messed up. Isn't there a setting in the config file you can add to keep it communicating with the master server, like COD has? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 May be. But I personally do not know it. Maybe someone here does though? Or maybe a google search will provide the info? I know that the GS master lists go stupid from time to time. Just par for the course with them. So it may even pop back up in a day or two without you doing anything.

HIS-MOTHER Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Yup COD2 had the issue early on in it's release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJFS Posted February 20, 2007 Author Share Posted February 20, 2007 But still I don't understand why it is with my servers while there are still 650 servers visible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIS-MOTHER Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 It is random, not just your servers. The best thing you can do is just leave them up. Do not restart them. Let them sort of seat themselves in the lobby. For now. Get ASE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJFS Posted February 20, 2007 Author Share Posted February 20, 2007 Yes but the customers want to see their servers in the serverlist of course but I will give it a few days to see how it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 It is frustrating to say the least, but it does happen with many game types. As an example. I play every once in a while on a BF2142 server that I have in the in-game history list. As of now it doesn't show anymore in the history list. If I do a sort by name on the regular list sometimes it shows, sometimes it doesn't. However, I am always able to connect if I connect by typing the IP directly in and hitting connect. GS lists are very strange to say the least... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIS-MOTHER Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Yes they are strange. Also if you notice when you refresh a lobby list, after it has loaded if you let it sit for a bit it will add a few more every 45 seconds or so. To be honest I don't think there lobby code is to tight, that or there servers are getting overutilized. It is a TON of querries to handle.

JJFS Posted February 20, 2007 Author Share Posted February 20, 2007 I was just thinking, I installed LGSL yesterday so to make a list of our servers. Can it be cause of that? that it interrupts with GS or something... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJFS Posted February 23, 2007 Author Share Posted February 23, 2007 Removed the servers from LGSL and now the problem is solved, so seems LGSL can fuck up all servers if you add them all. Pretty messed up then. Seems only to be by F.E.A.R. servers so gamespy listed servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIS-MOTHER Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Might be that the LGSL script is blocking GS from reading the servers querry ports? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJFS Posted February 23, 2007 Author Share Posted February 23, 2007 exactly but that is a pretty messed up situation if people find it out with bad intentions hehe, then we have to switch IP's everytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
