Server List View Problems

[¿Ðàrkér¿ TRC]

Ok, alot of people are aware of this.. when a server is up on the games in progress and is joinable, the list server in the jj2 window wont load. It just keeps trying to connect...

Will this be fixed soon?

It's possible that JJ2 is trying to get the list from the wrong/different server. In the last majorly released list server patch, it was set up for two different servers: jazz.contrabandent.net and jazz.nimrod-online.com. Unfortunately something has caused these two servers to not work together properly, so if someone hosts a game on one server it will not show up on the other, and vice versa. The list server that gets used more commonly now is jazz.nimrod-online.com. GIP scripts like the one J2O uses use this list server, but sometimes JJ2 uses the other one, where no games are listed, and this is why you may not see games in JJ2.

As a temporary solution, you can change JJ2's registry settings to use only jazz.nimrod-online.com. Applying <a href="http://www.nimrodnet.co.uk/listservers/List%20Servers.reg">this</a> registry file will do that for you.

Better solutions to this type of problem are being worked on, but I don't know how long it'll take.

Coney doesn´t makes sense to me...

[Coney]

I talking about appling the regestry,where am I supposed to apply that regestry (http://www.nimrodnet.co.uk/listservers/List%20Servers.reg) as in which file.Or maybe I just misunderstood something.

[Coney]

Wait a minute how is this any different from the serverpatch?

[Nimrod]

It is the Server Patch, but a newer version.

You should be able to just double click on the file once you download it, and say yes that you want it to be merged with the registry. Then run JJ2 like normal.

[Tubz]

Download it, don't bother saving unless you really want to. Just click open, and when it asks you the question, answer yes. Then run JJ2.

Thanx a lot Mono, now I can finally play some JJ2!

[Coney]

Oh, thanks I got the list server to work but it doesn't much matter though bacouse it still times out after thirty seconds.

You want some carrots dont you?

[Coney]

What?

[Coney]

Oh,and by the way I was using firefox so that's why I had a little trouble using that link because for some reson it did not download it but just opened it so I had to copy & paste it all to the old list server patch.Just thought I'd tell you that so people won't think I'm crazy.

[Monolith]

In that case you could just right click on the link, and select "Save Target As..."
