I've seen conversations of late regarding server protocols, master query, etc.
We've been running our own server/player/map search for some time, slowly improving on it. We've done some RSS/XML feed work (and CSV formatted) as well. We'd be willing to work towards any specific exporting customization if anyone wants to contact me about it. We are always looking for ways to improve it! Right now it's 1.6 only : We are re-integrating 1.5 back into it shortly, based on popular request. CS only: Again, we can DO other mods, just the interest doesn't seem to be there! Completely refreshed database every 8 minutes. Working on getting that down to 5 minutes We have map search We have server search We have player search We also have some interesting stats like most popular maps, server sizes, etc It's a simple site, pretty fast search and yes - a spoof on google. http://w00t.phxx.net p.s. : We also collect a buttload of data that we haven't made use of yet. It's a 2x 2.0ghz box with 4gb ram attached to a 140Gb mirrored ata disks. We have about 70GB of data stored.. and well.. while we need to improve the indexes, it /could/ be useful data. Ideas? _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
