@ pain - Please forgive if my questions sound ignorant but what is Never Launcher status as of now ? Is it useful to the end user yet ? Can a pw owner set this up yet to auto DL, cep for example ?

[Lazarus Magni]

Not to be a jerk, but this is a stickey attempting to inform folks of existing alternatives to the server list in light of the loss of game spy. It is not a general discussion thread.
 
Please post such querries in their appropiate threads. Just trying to keep this a clean, consise method for accessing the curent sever lists. I think it is vital to have such stickeys, and not have people have to wade through dozens, or hundreds of posts to get the information they need to participate in the online NWN community.

P.S. I am certainly looking forward to adding Pain's NL to this list.

*Keeping fingers crosses*

P.P.S. @ Pain? Got a link? I will list it in the OP if so. I was not under the impression this was functional yet (or open to the public), although I have been a bit busy with RL recently...

Updated to make it clear that multiplayer still exists. After playing with a new player a week or two ago (and I have seen evidence of this on these boards as well), it became clear to me that it might not be obvious to new players that, yes, multiplayer (and PWs) still exists and is/are possible. I have updated the title of this stickey (and some information) to make that more obvious for anyone looking here.

Heads up, nwnlist.com NWN1 Action server list looks like it's working now.

[Lazarus Magni]

Goodness, gracious.... about time. Thanks!

Updated the OP.

I don't know what is happening, but a lot of servers are offline in yourserverlist.com and nwnlist.com, but realy are online and i can connect with them with the game. Another server status web (www.iscandar.ch) neither can connect with them.

 

This happen since yesterday, i think. Skywing master server have the same problem, servers are disappearing from listing!!!

 

PD: Neverrun have same problem

[Lazarus Magni]

Not sure what happened there, but seems to be resolved?

[MrZork]

Not resolved yet. I noticed the same thing at http://yourserverlis...art=action&ord= yesterday and the problem persists today.

 

Edit: I should mention that I am checking the World of Greyhawk action server (96.29.255.115:5121), which I know is up and running at the same Direct Connect location. It appears that some other servers are still being updated on the server lists; at least the number of players and the ping times change every so often.

[AlthorDeMalavir]

After some investigation, the problem only happen on web pages where listing is based in php direct connection to servers.

 

http://zhtw.xfire.co...7.161.239:5121/

 

http://www.iscandar....&template=black

 

http://yourserverlis...1.239&port=5121

 

But i don't know why this happens.

 

With a fsockopen (in php) you can write bytes at server, but the server don´t send any information.

 

PD: Example is a server what is online, and was listed before without problems.

[leo_x]

Maybe some of these servers have set GameSpy Enabled=0 in their nwnplayer.ini?  If someone tries to ping the server with a gamespy message (like the PHP sites used to) and it's disabled the server will not respond.and will appear offline..

[Lazarus Magni]

Indeed, when GS first dropped support to NWN I changed this setting in our ini for our server. And it proved to also delist us from the alternative server listings. I certainly recommend enabling it even though GS is MIA.

[AlthorDeMalavir]

Problem solved, i have find a alternative method to read server information, you can use gamespy v2 protocol or use neverwinter nights protocol, this protocol is used to read ingame server information at history or favorite tabs.

 

PD: This method don't require GameSpy Enabled=1 in nwnplayer.ini

Hi Guys
I had the same issue with server status pages not working -
more specifically the UDP listener from nwserver would never bind to a port = therefore there was no UDP listener to respond to the server status request.

http://www.iscandar....&template=black

My own server which is appearing correctly was able to get it resolved by making a hosts change
(Someone on the forums told me to change it to a valid ip)

# Copyright © 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host

127.0.0.1 localhost
8.8.8.8 nwn.master.gamespy.com

8.8.8.8 is googles dns server ip - and I think it is guaranteed to be up 24/7

It seems that if nwn.master.gamespy.com is not connected to within X duration, the UDP listener just gives up, and ends up not being setup on nwserver start up.
If however you fool it into going to a valid IP address, it will bind and listen appropriately to UDP Requests.

Pre-release.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated. This is NOT a final version, there'll be another release.

[Lazarus Magni]

Umm... this was supposed to be a quote from virus man... Apparently I don't know how to work these dang new-fangled forums. I certainly had nothing to do with this tremendous effort. I will add the link to the OP once it is finalized.

[virusman]

NWNCX has been updated with the final Serverlist update. Please update the links to 0.2.9. Thanks!

[Lazarus Magni]

I will make the rounds and do so. Thank you Virusman.

Related thread for those who do not wish to modify their server setup and still wish to have the server stats posted to NWN listing services. Any services NOT able to read data from a server without some modification to the server read from, THIS is your solution. Contact us and we can discuss the methods.

 

Server stats posted without nwnx, without changing hosts file.

Thanks a ton, Virusman, it means a lot to us.

[Lazarus Magni]

Edited to update the status of nwnlist.com

[Eonwe]

I really don't understand it... nwnlist.com lists my server without me doing anything, but my php script doesn't work at all. Does anyone have any idea what could be the solution? Thanks!
