Gametype not showing for all servers (precompiled build)

Postby MirceaKitsune » Mon Sep 22, 2008 8:26 pm

I downloaded the latest precompiled build yesterday (Nexuiz-NEWEST, 21-September-2008) from the precompiled builds list and extracted and started it up.

When I went to the servers list I noticed there is a new Type category where servers finally show what game types they are currently running. However the game type on the servers are only displayed for less then half of the servers there. Screenshot included below... as you can see, under the Type list there are only a few types listed like dm, ctf and a race type.

I hope this isn't because the server also needs to have this version to be able to show its gametype in the list... I'd feel foolish for reporting something so obvious if that's the reason but I thought to be sure and point it out either way.

Yeah I get it now :) I feared I was probably reporting this for nothing and making a useless topic. Sorry :oops:

See it the other way round - it is also a nice way to see which servers have upgraded and which haven't :P
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

True :)
<Taoki> ... So maybe the new colored bars under the sbar weapons could indicate ammo level rather than accuracy stats.
<Morphed> great now there is a place to show current phase of moon on hud
