Indeed it isn't responding with the expected results. HLSW can't read the server rules and I'm getting the same response and same magic number.

Does 1248 mean anything to anyone? Perhaps it's the total bytes in the entire response? I'm just guessing... It's really close actually. There's 1294 bytes in the entire response (both packets). 24 of that is header data for the split packets. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Andrew Collins Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2008 6:34 PM To: hlds_apps@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: [hlds_apps] Additional 2 bytes in TF2 query protocol Haven't seen a message in this mailing in so long I'm not sure if it's still active, so lets find out. :) Example Server: 8.12.16.207:27015 Jiggly's Fun House #1 TF2 When sending a request for a rules packet from this server, it is responding with this: fe ff ff ff 67 20 00 00 02 00 e0 04 ff ff ff ff [rest of standard rules packet] According to this page: http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Server_Queries#Protocol This packet header breaks down as this fe ff ff ff = Split (long) 67 20 00 00 = Request ID (long) 02 00 = Packet Number (short) e0 04 = ? ff ff ff ff = Start Rules (long) What is the e0 04? The packet doesn't use compression, and if it did those two bytes are too small for the 2 expected integers, so what is it? _______________________________________________ hlds_apps mailing list hlds_apps@list.valvesoftware.com http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_apps _______________________________________________ hlds_apps mailing list hlds_apps@list.valvesoftware.com http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_apps
