SouthSaturnDelta 1 Posted September 15, 2007 Hi guys. Today I try to connect to MP and no servers show up at all. I try a remote address and this appears,but the internet servers do not show. Anyone else getting this today,or am I messing up somewhere? Worked grand last night and internet runs properly ect. Also filter options are set to allow any servers to show - just that nothing appears tonight ! Help mah!!! SSD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PositiveG 0 Posted September 15, 2007 Why does the game even rely on GameSpy? People can't connect to my server even by typing in the IP! http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ArmA:_Startup_Parameters Has anyone tried using the startup parameters? "C:\Program Files\Atari\ArmA\arma.exe" -connect=10.10.10.1 -password=if-theres-one Substitute the server IP of course. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Visceral_Syn 0 Posted September 15, 2007 Disable uplink to gamespy master and people can remote in. In the Server.cfg change this: reportingIP="armedass.master.gamespy.com"; to this: reportingIP="0.0.0.0"; //"armedass.master.gamespy.com"; ...Syn... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dwarden 1125 Posted September 15, 2007 it's just master.gamespy.com failing to return anything related to Armed Assault yet other games seems to work fine and return data from query master Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SouthSaturnDelta 1 Posted September 15, 2007 This makes me mad. Cant even play OFP either. Â Most UK servers as they're down so its Booze city afaic. Just as well I have Morgans spiced and OVD Rum. Too drunk now to try these params ... Likely off 'til tommorow really. Saio Na ra !!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SouthSaturnDelta 1 Posted September 15, 2007 Well matt, you must have known the IMO password then,but I dont sadly.(think I saw the IMO remote with 130/130 players earlier) N.B. Wow, 100 + players sounds freaking mental.Never seen more than 30 myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PositiveG 0 Posted September 15, 2007 I'd like a workaround, hoping to play this weekend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LBpilot1 0 Posted September 15, 2007 is this happening to everyone or just some people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PositiveG 0 Posted September 15, 2007 Try it. Doesn't work for me and three of my friends. I wonder if this has anything to do with the new server hacking that's been going on? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oChaos.DNJ 0 Posted September 15, 2007 What new server hacking? but anyways, no. If all arent displayed its Gamespy. Though it could be caused by someone hacking gamespys servers, which is doubtfull though. --------- None displayed for me either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SPCWEBB 0 Posted September 15, 2007 if it is a ddos attack then that might be what is happening, RUS Did it in February Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PositiveG 0 Posted September 15, 2007 I doubt anyone has hacked all the servers. I doubt Gamespy has been hacked. There's some Hack Kit out (read that over at Tactical Gamer). I suspect either one or more of these scenarios has happened; - Gamespy has shut down the ArmA master list service. - The ArmA devs have shut down the ArmA master list service. - There's a DDoS attack going on, against this master list service. That DDoS report link (earlier in the thread) is months old. I don't suspect that particular issue is what we're seeing here, but you never know. All of this is just pulled out of thin air, by me, but at this point it doesn't matter, I and others just can't get a list and play. Can someone describe how "ArmA Start" works? Â How to install it, etc. Â We had a squad match scheduled but now can't play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
