Title: no servers shown in 0.80 both internet\lan
Post by: a7fuc on August 12, 2008, 01:31:30 PM
i don't see any intenet or local servers in 0.80,it worked with 0.77.
when trying with my laptop instead it works for internet ones,but when connecting to a local server made with the pc with XPSP1 it keeps awating connection forever.
i've tried with the net_enabled cvar 1,but it doesn't change anything.

what can i try?

p.s.:the new mouse control sucks :)

There is a known problem with the binaries that ships with 0.8.0 that is fixed in these: http://brie.ostenfeld.dk/~poul19/public_files/oa/dev080/serverfixFor080.zip

I don't know why people cannot see any servers. I fear it might be the IPv6 thing.

If net_enabled is 1 , the engine doesn't open a IPv6 socket

It is not the socket that worries me. There are other calls that might hit Windows functions that worked different in Windows version before Windows XP SP2.

My knowledge of the Windows API is limited, so I am just guessing.

Just copy over the old files and i still can play usual? Or is this a “server only fix”?

You can just copy over. They are compatible with the old files except hosting (and in_mouse -1 in Windows) works.
