Help Joining Server, Weird Bug

Flyingcow

im trying to join one of my favorite combat servers 187|combat but it doesnt show up in the list

when i try adding the ip to the favorites, it doesnt work either.

209.242.60.222:27030, <a href='http://www.gametiger.com/search?address=209.242.60.222:27030' target='_blank'>http://www.gametiger.com/search?address=209.242.60.222:27030</a>

and when i look for the server in gametiger, it shows the server is up...

i have no filters too.

connect 209.242.60.222:27030 doesnt work either

Seems fine to me.

Does this happen with all servers you try to connect to??

Perhaps you have a steam related bug, where you can't add servers to your favourites list and your old ones disappear. Try this:

Close steam
Delete: steam\clientregistry.blob
Delete: steam\config\serverbrowser.vdf
Restart steam (it will update)

Then add the IP you want to connect to.

Failing that, try a reinstall? <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

it only does this on the 187combat server, it may have to do with the server using port 27030.

ill try what you said first.

luckily iwas able to get the serverlist out of the recycle bin and restore it..

Flyingcow

please help...

everyone can join and see the server but me.

could the port 27030 have something to do with me not being able to connect
or see the server? ive been able to connect to the server in the past, when it was using a 27015 ip. the new ip uses 27030 and i cannot see the server nor connect to it.

i have ports 27010-27039 open on tcp and udp...

Hate to say it ut theres other fish in the sea. That's not the only server, and if they can't accomodate themselves for players then they won't have players.

Flyingcow

that server is the best combat server ever, and it is my favorite servver... dont tell me join a different server, that doesnt solve anything.

can anyone tell me if the www.scrow.com works for them
thats the homepage of the server.

princess

Sorry for you losing the favourites list...assumed you'd back it up, nevermind though <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I can connect to that server and access the website. Try running a tracert to the IP ?

Flyingcow

ok, i went into cmd prompt, and typed ping 209.242.60.222:27030

and it says cannot find server.

princess

Myabe cus you need to ping it without the port. Try a tracert.

Type "tracert 209.242.60.222" in command prompt and paste the results.

(ps that server has 1001 dirty plugins and bizarre things to download, are you sure you like it? <img src='http://stat.livejournal.com/img/mood/ibrad/laugh.gif' border='0' alt='user posted image' /> )

Yeah.. I mean, let me quote half the NS Community:

"zOMG UR A NOOB CO SUX NOOB GO DYE OLOLOL NOOB"

and, if I may quote 90% of the community,

"OGM OGM CO WITH PLUGIINS WHAT NOOBTECH IS THAET!?11"

=(

Seriously, may I suggest some other, VANILLA combat servers? or even *gasp* a classic only server?

Flyingcow

i play on the server, but im actually good...

i note your internet sarcasm which brings you down to a lower level from my first perspective.

yesterday i tried accessing the website again and it worked. The server also showed up in the server list. the website and server seem somehow related.

but all is good now. thank you for the help

He's making sarcasm of the general community, calling them lower level from his own perspective, as it seems to me.

A friend I have has an identical problem to yours but on a far larger scale, he said he was told numorous times that it was his ISP, and quite frankly, I would have to agree, the only server he can view is my own.

You might want to talk to your ISP next.
