    if you want to add favorites, you could use the json file in %appdata% (unless you want to manage them in your own way). and really nice work! :)

    Thanks Mige and Sewlek. :)

    Camron, can you elaborate on why you want such a feature? I'm wary of adding "stalking" features like a player search. Anyone familiar with the bf3 scene probably knows about the fiasco that is battlelog privacy / bf3stalker.com etc. However I do want to add Steam Friends support, so you'll always be able to find out which servers your friends are on.

    Yes, I plan to open source the code once I'm done with the project (completed to my satisfaction or abandoned), probably on github under the GPL.

    is it possible to add filtering by modded servers or not? to just show modded servers.

    This tool is really nice, good job!
    One thing though: i doesnt seem to show every server, i disabled all filters and some servers are missing like the all-in servers.

    Yep, that's definitely possible, I'll try to get that in to the next release.

    Oh, you're right. When I wrote this there were under 100 servers running ns2. Now that there are over twice that number my current (lazy-ass) method of querying the Master List doesn't work properly. I'll get that fixed asap, hopefully over the weekend.

    Would be nice if there was any way to spot if the server had NS2 stats running. =)
    Awesome program, thanks!

    The download link isn't working.

    Since I'm often playing with 3-4 friends, the "number of free slots free" feature is awesome.

    Edit: It's working again.

    This is awesome. Looks like it works a hell of a lot better than the in-game server browser. I'll try it out when I get home. Does it work for Americans?

    This tool is awesome, even tough it lack some features (Not many). But i hope that you're still working on this!

    Keep it up mate!

    I get a lot of use out of this tool, and i know a few others that do!

    Any chance of an update? Ive noticed i only get around 80-90 servers, and most of them are from my region. Its not a big problem, but it would be nice to see the intercontinental servers too for an occasional HPB game.

    Tnx for this tool, allot better then the ingame one!

    The in-game server browser finds 703 servers, while this tool only finds 231 servers. Is it because the tool only queries for servers in my region? I'm not seeing most of the servers I play on in this tool.

    I also can only find 231 servers. A buddy of mine also only did find 231 servers, we both had server the other one did not have.

    This is great! If it would actually work...

    I'm also getting only 231 servers found.

    as of the latest build (245 or 246) when you launch a server directly with this, it crashes steam. it may have been a steam update rather than ns2 update that's caused this, though

    This is awesome! However is there any way to make this work for NS2: Combat?

    This app, while it was great while it worked, is ancient. And as the CDT is working to repair the steam master browser, there's no longer need of it.
