[hlcoders] A2S_RULES just getting another challenge

Heyo. This is perhaps not entirely related to the subjects of this list, but I'll give it a go. I'm trying to query a server for ConVars using a C# application (code snippet here: http://csharp.pastebin.com/PW8Hfajm). I've followed the instructions on this page

On a note, doesn't it look like you're sending FF FF FF FF 57 when you're expected to send FF FF FF FF 56 in that first packet? On Mon, Jun 14, 2010 at 6:06 AM, Harry Jeffery harry101jeff...@googlemail.com wrote: I am not sure what you are doing wrong but this library may be of interest to

@Harry: Thanks. I've already tried tools created by other people (not that one though, the one I tried was just called Source Query Tool). It worked, but I really want my application to stand on its own legs. : @Harry: Looks right to me (?). The first packet would be the

HLDS is broken, send -1 as challenge ID in the first rules query and you will receive a valid challenge ID which you can use again for the real rules query. Heyo. This is perhaps not entirely related to the subjects of this list, but I'll give it a go. I'm trying to query a server for

That worked. Thanks guys. Side note though: I'm not getting all the ConVars I'd like, and the last one is cut off. The dev wiki mentions this. Still no solution? 2010/6/14 Ronny Schedel i...@ronny-schedel.de: HLDS is broken, send -1 as challenge ID in the first rules query and you will receive

Well a few points: The commands in the Linux Commandline... and well those on any UNIX or UNIX Workalike have not really changed since the 1970s. You could pick up a book on BASH or TCSH from the 1970s, and still have most of what you should do. This kind of has allowed for tools to be put

It's all down to personal opinion, as long as it does what you need quickly and effectively then it's fine. I've yet to see the dark side in cannonical so I honestly can't say much about their ethics. Either way, I 3 Linux and so should Valve. On 15 June 2010 00:19, Katrina Payne

Spoiler Alert. It's like the ratman drawing that says She's watching you. Canonical is she in that case. I'm personally a fan of Fedora, but if Steam on GNU/Linux is distributed as a tarball, that'd be best in the interests of Valve. Even if some people (mainly Ubuntu users) would be a bit stuck

Something to consider, though, is that the 3D driver support is years behind from *ahem* a particular GPU manufacturer. I won't embarrass them by saying their name, so I'll just say their initials: ATI. Their driver support for Linux is, frankly, pathetic at best. The Fedora team is trying to

This also adds a rather odd burden here, that allows Linux to get a better standing for gaming. It is not that unknown that without mixing, Linux generally does not require anywhere near as much over head to run as windows. The minimum requirements to run a GUI on Linux is about 256MiB of RAM.
