As we know by now, U (players) and V (rules) share the same format whether the server is HL1 or HL2. The T-packet (details) however, is different.. HL1 servers respond with the 'm' packet and HL2 servers respond with the 'I' packet. Now, seeing this I came up with a great idea.. A universal qstat/halflife thingy.. Something along the lines of: 1. send T, U and V. 2. examine T-reply, if 'm' -> HL1, if 'I' -> HL2. 3. return results. This way, qstat could be used to query a server and show the details without the user having to figure out if the server is running HL1 or HL2. I myself could use this feature.. I suppose this could pretty much be done using existing qstat-code? The servertype could still return HLS / HL2S, identifying the gametype for later use.. So Steve, what do you think?? ;-) - Anders ----- Original Message ----- From: Steven Hartland To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, August 14, 2004 2:55 PM Subject: Re: [hlcoders] qstat 2.5d beta 3 available ( full cs: source support ) Yes just fixed BETA 4 now available :P Packet validation was too strict. I've removed the protocol version check for the time being. Steve / K ----- Original Message ----- From: "Anders Pedersen" > Steve..
