The <a href="http://github.com/Nayruden/ns2lua/" target="_blank">git repository</a> now has a working server browser. The online version can be seen on <a href="http://serverlist.devicenull.org/" target="_blank">devicenull's site</a>.

    So how long before the developers get annoyed at us making the engine test into a fully working game?

    I think in order for it to work you have to copy the files directly into the ns2 folder and not a mod folder. Not sure if that can be fixed yet.

    Er, I don't see how our code would help them at all. They aren't going to be implementing this any way even remotely like we did.

    Wow. I am so excited for when NS2 is going to be released.

    Its definitely the next Half-Life for modders. I cant wait for the next Counter-Strike.

    That Table error is nonfatal, and won't actually break anything. What's the exact text of the Server error?

    can something be changed in there for server browser to get from server

    last--> client #

    in order to get how many people are currently on server?

    example
    client 0 connected
    client 1 connected
    client 2 connected
    disconnected 1.1.1.1
    disconnected 0.0.0.0
    client 1 connected <-- this being last client connection

    what is printed in console
    might not be accurate but i think it would better than showing 0 players in server

    Our server browser has been working well except for some Steam-side authentication issues, so that's the hold-up there.
  • Matt_BLahMatt_BLah Join Date: 2006-11-02 Member: 58269Members
    Hurmmm it does not seem to be working quite right,

    I see the one server in game but cannot connect, when loading my own server it does not show up on the list after 4 min online... might need some more work but nice start.

    I'm stuck too, but only with the Table error...
    Joining the IP by hand doesn't do anything, with both WAN and Hamachi IP :/

    And yes, the original browser was working, since I managed to see one of my own servers, some days ago ;)

    You need port 27016 open in your firewall as well as 27015.

    I hope that the ping bars are from the mod and not the game. I really hate ambiguous ping indicators.

    I doubt they are going to get annoyed. it seems that they like all the stuff people are doing.

    They are from the game. Probably possible to override them, but I'll wait until the official browser actually works before trying.

    I had it only once, then after the reboot or something (for some minutes boths servers were down on your website) I was able to join a game and play
    But now it's not connecting anymore
    I've noticed something else: my internet seems slower when I'm attempting to join firefox pages take tinme to load (I have 8000 Kbps download speed so I presume that NS2 is making it slower)

    No cause I can watch a serie, navigate on firefox (slow but..)

    [edit] I've been able to join the server S HITE2 when it was online
    PS: By the way for forums admins I've been able to edit back my post after the "you don't have permission to edit that post" because of the bad word

    If you try to join a server that is down, NS2 will essentially attempt to DoS the other person with connect packets. It's crashed hamachi and logged my PC before.

    This is pretty excellent :) My copy of the engine test is so hacked up right now.

    There is a nice post by Max on how to load a mod from a remote directory so you can keep your NS2 folder vanilla.

    Look at this. Some general forum post and these badasses take time to read it and give us an update on their progress.
    I'm so glad I gave them money.

    Cause they are doing it RIGHT.
    Always keep an open door for your community and MOdders and everything will be fine^^(i hate companys where Gametypemods are handled like super LEET hacks as if they were bad).

    Like them much more, day by day. Keep on working on that nice game.

    Sadly it is the game, and I agree please list my ping, not some silly graph. That rates up there with chrome getting ride of the http:// and https:// from URL's
