Setti masterserver is updated

Major improvement to Setti masterserver has been activated today. From now on Setti masterserver prioritizes nearest servers for the user.

The servers are categorized based on country and continent. All users first receive the servers from their own country and then from their own continent. After that rest of the servers are shown. This helps receiving the lowest ping servers at first.

For example user in Finland would first receive all servers in Finland, then all servers in Europe, and then rest of the servers all around the world. That way the lowest ping servers, located in Finland, are shown in the server browser as soon as possible. The European servers are shown quickly after that, and the high ping servers across the seven seas are shown as the last. User from Brazil would obviously receive the servers in totally different order.

Awesome update. Hopefully it will solve problems with high pingers on servers xD

Feedback from CS1.6 users would be nice. They gained the most from this update because there are so many CS1.6 servers everywhere. The whole CS:S server list takes just seconds to refresh in full, so it doesn't matter so much which servers are sent first.

You are posting in wrong thread. This is about Setti's Masterserver. It has nothing to do with your problem.

You need to download the updated CSS to play at Setti. Check this thread: http://css.setti.inf...-nosteam-setti/

Still working with the crawler ? I am waiting for over an hour for that crawler to connect and nothing happens. As i can see you are still indexing css 1.0.0.34 but not mine. I don`t know why...my ip is real, no routers, anybody can connect to the server.
Can`t you do something to automatically index the servers faster ? I promise i will still visit your site and click the ads

If you've got your server once in the list, then your server is periodically checked and verified for days even if it goes down. Submitting it again on the server submission form doesn't help.

If your server IP changes, then it's considered as new server and it's checked in few minutes. If the check succeeds, then it's added on the list. All versions 1.0.0.34 and the new 10.0.40+ are supported.

You probably haven't patched your server correctly and you think it's Setti's fault. See the list http://css.setti.info/servers/css/ and then go ask the server admins how they've patched their servers. Then do the same. Usually server admins get their servers patched with the normal instructions provided with the patches, but sometimes I've seen it turns to struggle of wills.

[Shtok]

Thanks for the instructions...the server is 1 or 2 years old and i used to play on it a lot, and always was indexed very fast on setti. The patch is rev emu (an older version). Anyway, the crawler connected after a few hours...so it works.
Please don`t misunderstand me..i really appreciate your work here. Setti is the reason counter strike source and other valve games are still popular in no steam community. Without a working server browser i guess nobody would play.

The new modification is just great but why don't you make adding servers to be for registered users and ppl shoul claim their server and the point of this should be that they could remove the server from setti (using an option) like GT idea but it is very usefull when your server got stuck and kicked out from the list you could add it again.

Greetings.

This is wrong thread, and should be split to its own thread.

Everybody can remove their servers from Setti list by banning Setti's IP. There is no way to get permanently kicked out from the list, so I it's not necessary to limit server submission only for registered users.

Maybe claiming the server via SMS and then having something extra would be nice.

[k1ck]

That would be great, but what about servers like mine ... my server gone down for a week and dissappeared from the list on port 27015 because I have other on port 27016 and the 27016 is listed fine .. but the 27015 is gone and even adding it and waiting 24h didn't fixed it at all. I know about others like me what should WE do ?

PS: You can see the IP of my account the same is the server IP because I don't wanna make advertisment here.

Cheers

Your server is OK. Post to new thread if it doesn't show up tomorrow.

@everybody
This thread is about localization support in masterserver. Post feedback about the new update.

If your server doesn't show in the list, start new thread in the forum.

Thanks for asking.

The masterserver uses Maxmind's free IP-to-Location database. You can use and test the location accuracy with their free online demo at http://www.maxmind.c.../locate_demo_ip

Sv_region setting doesn't affect the location at all. Maxmind's database updates every month, so if your server is not placed correctly now, then it might be after next update.
