Title: Serverlist is odd
Post by: PopeJo on October 23, 2011, 09:40:39 AM
The serverbroswer gives strange results. (see: http://dpmaster.deathmask.net/?game=openarena )
1. it doesn't show defrag servers any more
2. it shows odd stuff like
Gametype: obelisk (Vanilla CTF - Runes Enabled)
the in-game broser also shows stuff like "megafrag" servers .. whatever they are ...

so: how can I see the defrag servers again?  :'(

I'm unsure, I suppose dpmaster updated its website, so it recognizes game types.

"directory names" are not always relevant of the game type, so that's a good thing it changed.
Though, directory names were also useful, so unless some other column is added I fear you'll have to use other tools to view directly that info.
When clicking in the server details you get these infos:

I've seen that the guy that writes dpmaster code is regeritered at this forum (even if probably he doesn't post here since a long time). I'm sorry I don't remember his nickname and I have not been able to find the post where he said he was the one that writes dpmaster.

Anyway, we may try to contact him and ask explainations; if we find his data. Bye
