From http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Source_Server_Query_Protocol " Request format Challenge values are required for A2S_PLAYER and A2S_RULES requests, you can use this request to get one. Note: You can also send A2S_PLAYER and A2S_RULES queries with a challenge value of -1 (0xFF FF FF FF) and they will respond with a challenge value to use (using the reply format below). " Asking for a serial with the player- or rules-character as mentioned in the "Note" works for me - and it is within the spec :) Regards Christian Celler _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
