Yes, its a real pain in the arse isent it ..... :(

ive made a few posts about it but got ne real replies ;)

the BW list doesent come up empty for me anymore . . . . it simply crashes gamespy with a "out of memory Error" !

The wireplay list isent 2 bad, it contains BW, Deamon, Wp etc and can be found at
"wp17.wireplay.net:27950"

the UKCCL list is at
"http://www.ukccl.net/ukcclq3.txt"
but only lists ukccl servers .....

id also sugest seting up some smartspy lists (u are using the full registered version of gs ? :)) for ff, team, duel, q3f ect. this really cuts the wait down but still takes 2 long imho :(

lo ;)

me and friends are still playing quake 2 as we cant be assed updating all the servers for quake 3 :(

quake 2's great as u can just update UKMaster which only takes 20 seconds or so and makes finding ur buddy a doddle :)

quake 3 - right click on Gamespy network, update, go have smoke, coffee, walk the dog ;) and then maybe all the servers be updated :(

Ive tried adding this master server to gamespy - http://q3master.barrysworld.com
It updates ok but there aint no servers? :(

If anyone can help me find a master server that only lists UK servers would be greatly appreciated :D

I think the adderss for the BW master server is just q3master.barrysworld.com port 27950, You cant have an http at the start as the bw q3 master is a "propper" :cool: master server not a web page :). Another problem might be the version of gamespy you use, when I last tried to update the master using gamespy 2.20 it appeared to get only 1 server with a 9999 ping (ie not existant), so I went back to 2.19 and it works fine for me. Hope this helps.
Another uk master I know of is q3fmaster.gamesinferno.com port 27950
which lists quake 3 fortress servers :D.

Rockhard id suggest downgrading to 2.19 if you have a copy or grab me(Eldritch)in irc and ill send you a copy, now to be honest what features does it lack that 2.20 has? :confused: None as far as im concerned, but then i only use gspy for q3 server browsing :).

Try updating the master and going to the all serers tab and see if 1 server is listed like it was when I tried to use 2.20. You could also try another server browser such as pingtool or game explorer or whatever

Thats a matter of opinion I dont like pingtool personally, but each to thier own (or is that 0\/\//\/? :D) There is also game explorer and i believe mirc scout will act as a q3 server browser, there are probably a few more around as well such as qtracker.
