<center>Deus Ex MasterServer List</center>

Description
This page shows the masterserver list. It's not realtime, it is being updated every 5 minutes. It also shows the total amount of players and it registers the highest amount of players.

Bugs
There are a few bugs, such as players showing up with "Error" as name and "Error" as ping.

Looks good, but if it isn't RealTime I might as well use Deja's DXSL. :(

XFire does the same right?

I suppose it's for players that do not use XFire.

Added new feature: Player Mapping.
It shows which player is where on the map.
Currently it's only working with CMD & Smuggler, and CMD doesn't parse locations correctly, so Smuggler is so far the only working one (I think).
Sometimes it cannot retreive the locations, then it will say "Player Mapping Failed", but otherwise it gives a clickable link.

Sometimes it can look as if a player is outside the map (behind a wall), but in fact he is standing against the wall. This is mainly in Smuggler, in CMD everything is simply fucked up.

I don't see any links to this on the mainpage, shouldn't this come under MM or anything?

This was "brilliant"... until I discovered your player mapping, now it's just fucking amazing, regardless of whether it works or not, lol. It's promising, and AFAIK a unique idea?

Christ, big brother is watching you..... even the virtual you....

Keep it up.

Agree btw, linky on the sitey

Also (sorry for some reason eidt button doing nothing): Which masterserver is this taking info from? Just the [A] one?

Alex - would I be right in thinking the player mapping catches the player co-ordinates from the server info stream, and uses the GD library to dynamically create the image?

Also it doesn't update frequently enough.

And what is DXSL, and where can I get it

PostPosted: Thu Dec 20, 07 2:40 pm

GameSpy, yes it catches the coordinates, and we can't make it update more frequent, it's quite a time-taking process to generate the page.

DXSL=DeusExServerList, use the search feature, i think it's on here somewhere. It's like Alex's page but portable!

Alex, that's cool. Earlier it only told me of about 6 servers but I know there's more up. Sorry for the questions, it's just I'm in the middle of making the same sorta script, but just for FTF clan servers and the new public one which will be up soon.
I got fucked over the other day by a mate of mine who said he could do PHP. He gave me this code which "he made" for server status, but in actual fact it was phgstats without copyright/any references to phgstats.
So I'm making my own...

Dw though, I'm not a rival - I know next to nothing about php and udp server thingies, and mine will never have player mapping. Unless I can figure it out. In which case there'd be no point coz I'd get slated for being a copycat.

Kaiden, (DXSL) I did a forum search and foudn a file you uploaded. Thanks.

Look at the phgstats script, and learn from it and use the same methods. I did the same with the MasterServer script (Even though I didn't use phpgstats)

I've had a look. Going to have a fiddle, coz it's the most fun way! To date I haven't achieved anything, but it's still fun.

Among other peripheral devices such as your printers, they get fried as soon as you visit the page. :x

Player mapping sounds very awesome...

Can it be a kind of spectator tool for clan war?

No. And the masterserver page is offline. It's not being updated anymore.

So, it's been given up?
