  1. Our last straw, QTracker will shut down their Gamespy Emulation Master Server at 1st August 2017.

    Well, I started off this evening shutting Qtracker down.

    After playing Ark for a bit, clearer heads have prevailed and I'm just shutting down my Gamespy emulation. Unfortunately the minority is ruining it for the majority and my Gamespy servers have been the target of many attacks within the past few years. This has resulted in downtime, lots of wasted money, countless wasted hours (that could've went towards the new version of Qtracker), and tons of stress.

    So, all of Qtrackers Gamespy emulation servers will be shut down on 8/1/2017. This should give mod authors plenty of time to move to other solutions.

    And the Forum is blocked, there QTracker says

    Gamespy emulation is going down on 8/1/2017. The forums are down temporarily so I don't have to listen to people complain.

    So the only way to join servers would be via the external programm URA or via OneOakWay.com. So the old fashioned way to join the servers via the nolf menu, won't be possible anymore. I find it incredibly stupid that you cannot even do some kind of petition in his forum, because he shut it down - make in accessible for others to write / retrieve technical help - although I do understand it, I find it still a bit childish.
    And who else is using QTracker? Counterstrike players? Why should they use an alternative master server?

  2. Max we would be happy to see you in multiplayer as well! Most people are online on saturdays and sundays.

    Us old people from the ego clan (ego-clan.com) are on saturdays online

     

    Oh you made me playing the single player missions again ;)
    And no I dont want your monkey

  3. Thank you very much for your response, but Eliteone trust me, that hosts file thing was one of the very first things that I did ;)
    In Windows 10 I can make a standalone server, that one is not visible to qtracker. 
    However if I make a server within the nolf menu (so inside the game) it is visible to qtracker. 

    Standalone Servers on windows 10 are only visible within my LAN Network, one other quirky: the grenade launcher + briefcase-rockets 'fly' faster, and when I go diving my breath and health goes away much faster. How fast: In hydro I cannot reach the briefcase, I die in the pipes.
    Oh and the intelligence items appear after seconds again. 
    This bug & and the network bug was for me the reason to host it only on WinXP. On WinXP it works immediatly & perfectly!

    So for (possible others)...don't host it on Win10. At least it doesn't work out for me :wacko:

  4. Welcome to the community! Its nice to see that that we still get new people :)
    Just like you I came via NOLF2 to NOLF1 and I got stuck with nolf1. 

    I hope we will see you someday online? As a far as I have seen it, players are online in the weekend at (US) evening times. In order to see the servers in the multiplayer you have to change the IP of master server which displays all the servers in the menu. Nothing big, but it has big effects for the case you want to play with us

  5. Hi Guys,

    So the master server is down, and now we are all at QTracker. Inside the game I can see the list of the servers again, but when I want to host a dedicated nolf1 server I cannot see that server in the list or on oneoakway.com. I tried to run nolfserv.exe with and without compatibilty or admin rights - unfortunatly it doesn't work.
    When I run the server with the "Server Companion" by URA: this one here...

    ...I can perfectly see my server in the list. So Port Forwarding and Firewall settings are fine. What am I missing?
     
    I know that there already enough empty servers. Why a new server? My siblings found my CD's and since they're bloody beginners I help them by making a higher netintelscore on HvsU. And in the already existing servers I cannot change the points for the intel-suitcases.
    And for the rare case that IF somebody would come and want to join he can, because he can see the server in the list ingame.

    Hope that there are still players outside?

    Greetings
    John
