Hi, I think A2S_SERVERQUERY_GETCHALLENGE is not working, because I sent FF FF FF FF 57 to server and there was no response. But when I sent A2S_PLAYER w/ challenge number -1 (FF FF FF FF) I get 41 CB 4F DF 0A and this looks like challenge number, so we have to send first A2S_PLAYER to get challenge number and second to actually get player list.
HLSW does it this way: 1. send TSource Engine Query - because for this command it doesn't need challenge number 2. receive server info 3. send A2S_PLAYER with challenge -1 (FF FF FF FF) 4. receive challenge number as stated in A2S_SERVERQUERY_GETCHALLENGE ff ff ff ff 41* c6 2a 3f 09* so actually A2S_PLAYER with challenge -1 returns A2S_SERVERQUERY_GETCHALLENGE packet not A2S_PLAYER packet, so you can't parse it as player packet since it doesn't return players' infos. 5. send A2S_RULES with challenge from 4. step: FF FF FF FF 56 c6 2a 3f 09 6. receive A2S_RULES 7. send A2S_PLAYER with challenge from 4. step: FF FF FF FF 55 56 c6 2a 3f 09 8. receive A2S_PLAYER source: wireshark conclusion: HLSW itself gets challenge number from A2S_PLAYERS (by passing -1 as challenge number) not A2S_SERVERQUERY_GETCHALLENGE, this could be because A2S_SERVERQUERY_GETCHALLENGE is broken. I've tested this myself and yes, A2S_SERVERQUERY_GETCHALLENGE as stated in http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Server_Queries is not working, maybe they changed 57 to something else? PsychoQuery uses A2S_SERVERQUERY_GETCHALLENGE, so it won't work until someone patches it.
