Server and spider issue
A helping hand, any tips & tricks would be appreciated...
When i run a Q3 E+ server it of some reason refuse to show on the Spider here.
This problems occured when i got myself a new modem/router/firewall (Zyxel Prestige 660-HW-61). In the settings there are no DMZ option.
I tried 'allow all ports' in the firewall-NAT table, allow all TCP/UDP traffic, respond to ping requests...
To connect by typing its public IP works!
But it would be great if ppl knew it exists too
I know i've done something wrong, question is: what?
Does your E+ server show up on ASE?
I know your problem appears to be router related IZ, but I thought I would throw some additional E+ server info just in case. The following information is also for anyone else.
Check your server config and make sure you have set sv_master1 & so forth...
Here is my setup:
set sv_master1 "master0.gamespy.com"
set sv_master2 "master3.idsoftware.com"
set sv_master3 "master.kali.net"
For those who don't know what sv_master does, please read below:
sv_master is what reports your game server to a Q3 master server. By default sv_master1 is set to the id master. You can also specify sv_master2 as master0.gamespy.com and it will show up on their list as well. You can have as many sv_master as you want as long as there is a master server that it will report to.
I've noticied that my server [MR.]Clan ExcessivePlus FFA shows up twice on the spider. I don't know much about the spider, but I am sure master1 & master2 are the reason.
try monster.idsoftware.com
Start the server and try
http://www.excessiveplus.net/?query&81.225.165.248:27960
If it wont show up then your port is not forwarded correctly.
Even if your sv_master's aren't correct sv_master5 is still hard set to master0.excessiveplus.net (our master server).
Think its the respond to ping thing that is malfunctioning!
