Phobics Master Server ***Were Still Playing*** Read!

Dash was testing this a while back but had a few problems. So far so good I guess.

From Phobick,

Hi everyone,

I have created a master server. I have been testing it throughout the day and no bugs so far...so I ask everyone to do the following:

Go to your ThinkTanks folder, and navigate to game/client..
IF YOU'RE ON VISTA/7, CLICK THE COMPATIBILITY BUTTON AT THE TOP:
Image

Open the prefs.cs and find the following:
Code:
$pref::Master0 = "2:master.garagegames.com:28002";

Under it..insert the following:
Code:
$pref::Master1 = "2:65.39.239.149:21567";


So it should look like:
Code:
$pref::Master0 = "2:master.garagegames.com:28002";
$pref::Master1 = "2:65.39.236.105:28001";


Once you've done that, save it and close. Then, delete the prefs.cs.dso.

If you're a hoster, make sure to restart your server when you apply these changes.

This will not replace the Garage Games master server..it will only use mine if it can't connect to GarageGames.

I am hosting this from a data center as well, so it will run well (even though it doesn't really need that much of a connection).

I ADVISE EVERYONE TO DO THIS. THIS WAY WE WILL NOT BE AFFECTED IF THE MASTER GOES DOWN

Tanks, it is working but Phobik changed his IP address for the master..

it should be:  2:65.39.236.105:28001.  Insert that IP address instead of the above and you should be good to go.  Make sure you follow directions..just his Master IP address has changed.

Yeah, it works just fine now. The servers are all showing up. Warfare helped out a bit with the code. My list load time is down from about a minute to around 15 seconds.

Back in business... even saw a full server last night. Here's what I used to set it up. Took a minute or two.

THE IP FOR PHOBIK'S MASTER HAS CHANGED. THIS IS THE ONLY TIME THIS WILL HAPPEN DUE TO IT INITIALLY BEING SET UP ON THE WRONG MACHINE. PLEASE UPDATE YOUR PREFS ACCORDINGLY:

Insert this line in the prefs in game/client (...game/client/prefs.cs)

$pref::Master1 = "2:65.39.236.105:28001";

after

$pref::Master0 = "2:master.garagegames.com:28002";

It should look like this:

$pref::Master0 = "2:master.garagegames.com:28002";
$pref::Master1 = "2:65.39.236.105:28001";

Save and delete the prefs.cs.dso
(PC users, you may have to press the compatibility files at the top to access the right prefs)

Phobik's master server seems to be bug-free now.  Thanks to all who made this possible.

mine reads like this:

$pref::isDemo 2:master.garagegames.com:28002 $pref::Master0 400



Not exactly the same as

$pref::Master0 = "2:master.garagegames.com:28002";


is thast a problem if I add the additional code line?
