Thread: Worried About MOHAA Master Server

    Default Worried About MOHAA Master Server

    Hey Guys,

    With all of the recent changes at EA, I'm a bit worried about the MOHAA master server which returns all of the running MOHAA servers in game when a player goes to "Multiplayer". These servers are then queried by the client.

    Would it be possible to write a program to do the same as the master server? I'd be willing to host it on my dedicated servers. Preferably, the master server program would need to work with Linux, but I also have a Windows option. I know we already have a "Reborn Server Web Browser", so could we incorporate it into the client in case the master server were ever to be taken offline? Thus, we could run our own master server and be self reliant. Just a thought. I'm not sure how the master server would query the servers, return the list, and in what format the data should be in, but I could possibly help write a Windows version using C# assuming I get the information I need.

    What do you guys think?

    We have a Reborn Master Server written in C#. I wanted to rewrite it to C/C++ because C# has some problems with initialization, or we could fix the issue.

    Anyway.. people will need to update to Reborn, because CVars like sv_masterserverXX doesn't work. They are not used because normal MasterServer was changed to GSA MasterServer protocol and there is no way to change the address. You can only edit the exe.

    This is why I wanted to create a centralized MoH:AA website with all services, so in case something like this happens, people would easly find us and use our services instead of dropping the game.

    There is a special subforum for the Masterserver implementation. If you would want to help, I can give more technical information how does it work and so on. You can also get access to my Dropbox folder where current source code for our Masterserver resides.

    Trust me, the information will spread like wildfire when that happens. I would spam everyone on my xfire with the information as long as put it up at my mohaa websites...

    I work as a software engineer using C#, so yes, if we've already got source code, I want to help make it work. Just describe what's wrong with initialization, and I'd be happy to take a look at it. I'll post in master server forum.
