shinobi2204 Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Can anybody help me, I would like to set up a filter on ASE (All Seeing Eye) that will show non pure servers, I have been using this for about a month and I can tell a non pure server sometimes by the map or by whether the 'AllowDownload' part is set to 1 but I was wondering if there was a way of filtering these servers to make things easier and quicker. Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 I believe you can write filters for stuff like that. But I am afraid I am not very knowledgable about that sort of thing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinobi2204 Posted October 29, 2003 Author Share Posted October 29, 2003 Well if there is anyone who can please let me know, I am going to try Qtracker tonight and see what this is like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akshara Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 I can't say about ASE, but in Qtracker one can create a custom filter by copying one already there and simply changing the variables in Notepad. Here's the page that explains how, and it's pretty easy... http://www.qtracker.com/docs-filters.shtml When you open the Filters>Game window in QT, click on the Organize... button to access the available filters, and open one in Notepad, then save as whatever you want to not write over the original. Then follow the instructions on the page above. What you're looking for is a "rule" that includes the cvar variable that decides whether a server is a Pure Server or not, which I don't know. Once you find that variable, simply create a rule with it set to "0" and make sure that all of the other stuff in the file is changed to the appropriate entries, like filename and description, etc. Then when you select it in the Filters window, it should only show servers that have the cvar set to not be a pure server. Hope that made sense... you'll figure it out. Maybe somebody will be an angel and post the actual Pure Server cvar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amidala from Chop Shop Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Download th All Seeing Eye here to see all 500 servers, not just the 30 in the ingame browser: http://www.udpsoft.com/eye2/index.html use sv_pure 0 or sv_pure 1 in filters.

DeathStriker Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 It says its only a 21 day free trial, the other one costs $30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akshara Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 It's a 21-day free trial, but it still works fine after 21 days. To register and activate the Buddy feature, it's $10/yr or $30/lifetime. If you want a true freeware solution, go to www.qtracker.com and get Qtracker instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeathStriker Posted November 1, 2003 Share Posted November 1, 2003 Where do i have to type "sv_pure 0" in the all seeing eye program? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akshara Posted November 2, 2003 Share Posted November 2, 2003 You don't. Is this a joke post or are you serious? If serious, I suggest using Qtracker instead and going up about 11 posts to read my previous suggestion on how to create custom filters for QT.

DeathStriker Posted November 2, 2003 Share Posted November 2, 2003 This is not a joke, i tried Q-Tracker but it was to hard for my small, non-existent brain to understand so i thought ASE might be easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akshara Posted November 2, 2003 Share Posted November 2, 2003 Hmmm... ok. Well I don't know what to tell ya. Maybe someone with a little more ASE experience will chime in. As far as I'm aware, there isn't a way to create custom filters in ASE... but I mostly use Qtracker. Eventually someone will create this and post it on the Qtracker site, just like was done with JK2. I've gotta say though, in the Qtracker interface just under the File menu is a button for Options, and just about every single controllable feature is accessible there. Hopefully someone will post who knows ASE a little better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeathStriker Posted November 2, 2003 Share Posted November 2, 2003 ive tried q-tracker again, this is what i have written down in note pad. description Pure Server directory Pure Server game jediknightjediacademy active 0 filename sv_pure 0.qtf homepage http://lucasarts.com/products/jediacademy if mod equals "basejk" and if sv_pure equals "0" But it dosent seem to be working do you know what i am doing wrong? and how do you get it back to being a Q-Tracker file, it is still a notepad file.

Akshara Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 That looks fine... now you simply need to rename the file to "sv_pure 0.qtf" and then dbl-click it to begin the installer. Now before you say "but it is named that!," probably your system has file extensions for know file types disabled, which means that there's probably a hidden ".txt" at the end of your filename. To change this... Open a Windows Explorer window, and select "Folder Options" from the "Tools" menu above. Once that's open, click on the "View" tab, and then make sure this option is deselected... "Hide extensions for known file types" And then click Apply/Ok. Now go back to your "sv_pure 0.qtf" file and see if has a ".txt" at the end. If so, right-click on the file to rename it and erase the ".txt" - you'll get a warning, but ignore it. Now, dbl-click on the file and it should auto-install itself in Qtracker.

Kurgan Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 Personally I find both programs just as easy to use, so I don't see the big deal. Just spend some time clicking on menus and buttons and you'll figure it out eventually even without reading any documentation or tips from us. I ran a non pure server for Halloween and have been for the last few days but hardly anyone joins. I'm guessing mainly because I'm not appearing in the in-game server browser list. Prior to Halloween my server was constantly full, meaning I probably was on the list. Ah well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeathStriker Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 Ive done all of that, installed it and everything but it dosent seem to make any effect to the servers, i dont suppose you know why, do you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akshara Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 Yes... you need to change that last line to this: if mod equals "basejk" and if rule("sv_pure") equals "0" If you have any other problems, be sure to read this page on the Qtracker website... http://www.qtracker.com/docs-filters.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked for your server on the weekend, but I was unable to find it in the All Seeing Eye. I joined for a bit with the ip directly for a bit though...

Kurgan Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 Weird, because ASE always lists it for me, regardless if the in-game browser does (it rarely does). It's been up solid all this time except for a couple of hours when it crashed the other day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akshara Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 It was probably because the name was changed to "Kurgan's Trick-O-Treat"... it disappeared from my favorites (usually catches the IP switch) and didn't show up in Qtracker until I did a reload of all the servers.
