Missing servers in in-game server browser

[dukenukem. 12]

Hi all,

i have updated to 1.62 patch, and i am missing servers in the in-game server browser. for eg, i clear all filters (by pressing default then ok) and press refresh, the list that is returned is somehow a subset of the full list. cos i sort by server name, and i cannot find any server start with 'TAW...'

yes i have searched in the top of the list and at the bottom where all the servers with the red X icons are...

but when i put that string into the filter and only filter 'TAW...' servers i get ~12 servers, which is correct.

anyone else encounter this issue? i feel it is somehow connected to this issue i posted here:

http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?81060-ArmA-II-launcher-by-alpinestars&p=2196508&viewfull=1#post2196508

in the launcher server browser, notice that the number of servers retrieved is maxed out at 500, weird. this did not happen in 1.60, i am sure cos i always have my filter not set to filter anything.

thanks alot!!!

EDIT: sorry, now pressing default in filter dialog sets ping to value of '100'. i manually change value to '0'.

Thanks for replying! are you referring to the in-game browser or the arma2 launcher or both?

All browsers, ingame or outgame can only retrieve up to 500 servers atm, due to GameSpy change.

However SIX Launcher and upcoming Play withSIX still can display all servers; http://www.six-updater.net/2012/07/gamespy-serverlist-queries-limited-to.html

An update for SIX Updater might occur soon.

Thanks for that sickboy, didn't know abt the gamespy change. Any idea if that is gonna change? yup six-updater is able to show ~700++ servers, thanks for that.

oh well just gotta live with it for now.
