am i the only one really annoyed by this shitty mod that makes servers look populated in the list when they really arent?

so dissapointing when you join an 11 people server and theres actually noone playing.

Those servers automatically go on my never visit list.

The very most annoying things about several of them is that they screw up my grapple bind and then have the gall to add their other shitty fake player servers to your favorites! I think maybe they even somehow got their favorites into my list even with my .ini's set to ro.

Never visit, indeed.

I'm happy to say there is an automatic player transfer to a new server mutator without the fake player mod, for a new server IP change.. :)

I didn't think this was aimed at the uK servers. This is about the servers that always show fake players all the time without the intention of redirecting to "new" servers... as I understood it.

The redirection reasom is pretty simple. 97% of players do not interact or visit the forum. Therefore there are two options. Turn off the old ones and just have dead servers or redirect the traffic. I know which one I prefer.

The old servers are offline now? At least they are in my ut, any ip's of new US servers? If there are i cant find them. The ip's on the homepage are still the same and with recent players.

The IPs on homepage are of new servers. They are not the old servers. If you thunk old servers are showing on homepage, do a hard refresh (CTRL+F5). If you still have old servers in your favourites list, just enter the servers.

The server you enter will delete itself and replace itself with it's new one.

Ok if the ip's are the new ones, they still are offline. I did a hard refresh but nothing changed. I tried open location but i still cant connect.

It was ok until 2-3 days ago, then the servers Bunnytrack-Combi-US insta were offline

You seem to have triggered some firewall rule. I've whitelisted you now.

I see, didnt know you're only doing this during ip changes.

It never seems to forward me to a new server tho, im always in that empty server which looks full in the servertab.

If you're kept there, then the mod has bugged and won't work again until next mapvote. In any case though, both the old / new servers will update your list. Or should.

About servers...

I only play iGib on US or the UK servers... and every time I open UT there it is the Combo Gib server on my favorites and now there's a NW server... no matter how many times I remove those from my favorites they keep coming back when launching UT again...

Is there a way to permanently stop those from going into my favorites?

Tks :)

Maybe a temporary solution: Set unrealtournament.ini to read only.

That wont affect any server updated files that i need to download and have referenced on the .ini?

I might have uploaded the wrong setting on the file. Thank for letting me know. It should only update for the server you enter. I'll check tonight.
