Got a new error for everyone! - Page 2

**squeek.** · 10-16-2013, 05:09 AM

I'm seeing if installing a server using SteamCMD will allow people to connect. SteamCMD is what you're meant to use to install servers of games that use the new content system, so it might be the issue (and if it is, it means all dedicated servers will have to convert to SteamCMD)

**squeek.** · 10-16-2013, 05:18 AM

That is the fix.

Try connecting to: 64.74.97.32:27050 (it will only work if you have converted your Source SDK Base 2006 to the new content system)

So from now on, servers need to be installed using SteamCMD with appid 205 (Source Dedicated Server).

Chickenprotector · 10-16-2013, 05:21 AM

Server side. Either way, either-or. Thanks for looking into the issue Squeek.

If it hasn't been done already, I'll add it to the main post.

JuiceDD · 10-16-2013, 10:48 PM

Its very Important that you have steam turned off when reloading all the files !!!!! Wont work unless you launch from your steam games Library

NFO will most likely have a fix in the next 24 hours. Should prepare a post for people that weren't steampiped on how to get piped in their steamers

ddm999 · 10-17-2013, 07:25 PM

Dayum, kinda OK with the fact my PC's broken to shit now that I know FF's been fcked up while I was gone.

(dammit windows xp you made ff crash from god damn firewall fuck you windows firewall you piece of shit god damn it)

NeonLight · 10-17-2013, 10:33 PM

The servers are now starting to get updated. I can connect to one of pickup servers (BOSS) with the new file system. So hopefully all the servers will be done by the end of the night

KubeDawg · 10-17-2013, 10:48 PM

Yep, my server should now be updated.

aleXtric · 10-18-2013, 05:10 AM

All the pickup servers are up and running but...

One issue I'm seeing is all the FF servers that have been updated aren't showing up in the server browser under 'Internet'. They're only showing up in Favorites. Also when you right click the servers rather than saying "No users currently playing on this server." It says "Server is not available." Even though the servers work

OT is the only server i see that is updated and in the Internet tab, I'm wondering if this has to do with a cfg or what. I have 'heartbeat' etc in the pickup cfgs but still seems to be an issue.

**Dexter** · 10-18-2013, 05:18 AM

i noticed that too, but they started showing up a few hours later intermittently, not sure if its BS or what

rdrt · 10-18-2013, 04:26 PM

Despite my best efforts I cannot get my server to show under the 'Internet' tab either. I can connect from favorites, but otherwise cannot seem to add to the master server list atm. I also notice in my server dialog there are no longer those last two lines showing the IPs of the master servers to which it should be added.

KubeDawg · 10-18-2013, 06:39 PM

I've submitted a support ticket to NFO to see if they can fix the issue:

Quote:

I have one more issue since the new update, my server no longer shows on the Master Sever list. It will appear in the History tab or Favorites if I've saved it, but no longer under the Internet tab. This is both while in-game & out-of-game.

I've done a bit of digging to try to find a solution and I think SRCDS needs to be running the current version in order for the servers to appear on the Master List.

1. Could you check to make sure SRCDS is in fact up-to-date?
2. If it is, please find another way to get my server back on the Master List?

I also know a few other server admins who rent through NFO that are having the same problem.

KubeDawg · 10-18-2013, 06:55 PM

LMAO @ NFO's crackpot support:

If the game is working and connectable you should be running the latest version. The FF staff kind of did a "half assed" conversion to steampipe. The game was already kind of hacked together to begin with. This may be an issue on the developers end.

I guess I forgot to mention it was working fine before the update.

rodox · 10-18-2013, 08:39 PM

Trust me... I talked to them in IRC the other day and they did not know what they were talking about at times.. They were very confused thinking FF updated it's game, when it was all valve's doing. My advice to everyone is you want to stay with NFOservers, get an unmanaged VPS from them and manage the server yourself. You are basically paying a premium for them to manage it when you could pay a little extra (if its at all even extra) to manage it yourself and get full root and remote access. You will never have to deal with their support again (at least making updates). Or just find an unmanaged VPS from some other provider... either way. Once squeek finishes the paperwork and the game is officially on Steam, you will have to go through all of this once again with them. Whether or not the game is kind of hacked together in some ways, it took squeek literally 10 minutes to figure out what to do and make it work. They are a server company so it's really no excuse.

Hahaha... man I wish we had ANY say in the conversion to steampipe. Really, it was all Valve thinking that no one would even notice that the Source SDK Base 2006 was converted; they just sprung this on us without any warning at all. Super cool detail: Source SDK Base 2007 is still in an opt-in beta phase for Steampipe because Valve knows that mods exist on that engine.

Also, what? How could they even think this was our doing? The FF installs literally did not change. They used SteamCMD to download Source Dedicated Server. No clue how they thought we control something called SteamCMD or Source Dedicated Server.

**Dexter** · 10-19-2013, 12:35 AM

as a NFO customer I can that is some top notch tech support guy trying to pretend he knows more than he does!

rdrt · 10-19-2013, 08:05 PM

Has anyone figured out how to get the server to consistently show up on the master list? I see O-T seems to always be there now.

aleXtric · 10-20-2013, 01:36 AM

Quote:

Usually that happens because sv_master_legacy_mode has the wrong value, the server is tagged with the wrong appid, or master server entries need to be manually added. But, your server is configured the same as his for these (now) and it's still not showing in http://api.steampowered.com/ISteamAp...=192.223.26.28. This is really leaving me scratching my head. I'll keep digging.

Not sure when this is gonna get figured out lol

Iggy · 10-20-2013, 02:38 AM

Anyone know how this will, if at all, effect the Beta Version of FF?
