Couple of questions

Post by DRuM »

1. I've got 13 servers all under favourites 1 in all seeing eye. When I try to delete one, (by right clicking and scrolling to 'delete selected servers), nothing happens. How do I actually delete servers from there?

2. A question I always wondered. Under osp in all seeing eye, some servers will say Game: osp and some say Game: baseq3, ( Game being the column to the right of the 'Players' column). One server I go to regularly is osp/ Game: baseq3, yet is totally osp functional. So why does it say baseq3?

1. Right-Click and select "Remove from Favorites > Favorites 1".

2. The server must be server-side OSP, and not all OSP functionality is supported...

Thanks, that works. I dunno what 'delete selected servers' does then, but anyway, nice one.

Regarding server-side OSP, what does the host of a server need to make it totally osp and not osp/baseq3?

From osp-q3-Variables.txt:
// osp_gamename <0|1>
// Allows OSP to run as "baseq3" for UI server browser filtering.
// This allows server ops to let clients use the in-game browser
// and select their server if the client uses the FFA/1v1/etc.
// filter types.
// 0 - Shows up as "FFA/1V1/TDM/CTF/???"
// * 1 - Shows up as "osp"
// ---> Note: To use this properly, you will have to put everything
// (configs, subdirectories, etc.) in the baseq3/ directory, copy
// the "game" .pk3 in the paks/ directory into the baseq3/
// directory and rename it to something like "zzzosp-game099.pk3"

Thanks misantropia.

" Allows OSP to run as "baseq3" for UI server browser filtering.
This allows server ops to let clients use the in-game browser
and select their server if the client uses the FFA/1v1/etc filter types."

Still don't quite get it though, so excuse me for being slow.
What does it mean 'run as "baseq3" for server browser filtering'? I see the osp/baseq3 servers that I go to only under the osp tab, not the baseq3 tab, so what's the difference?

It was a hack meant for the built-in browser (since it only sorts on game dir). Most external browsers are a bit smarter about it.
