CS.RIN.RU - Steam Underground Community

nice work for the comunity u guys are doing...
i have 2 questions ,
1 - u give me permition to use http://css.setti.info/code/masterserver ... ervers.vdf to patch the masterserver.vdf from inside steamrip ?(that will result for everytime steamrip user starts it , it will querie that page)

2 - can u post the patched hex adress inside serverbrowser.dll so i wont have to compare patched and non patched (im kinda lazy right now)...

Yeah, but nobody ever knows the right address . It's also more effective to let everybody add all servers they know in a form on a web page. There are currently over 300 servers (running or not) submitted to http://css.setti.info/. The rest are from CSN and GrCs2Ek's server list. Props for them too .



Yeah, it's not pretty, but it's working. In total there are some 700 servers (from which some 300 runing simltaneously usually). They can be sent in 3 udp packets and parsed in 0.1 microseconds on client. It's good enough compromise, don't you think?




Of course. Thanks.



You basically just need to change hard coded Steam masterserver addresses to invalid ones. That way when (for some reason) all servers have been queried from asterServer.vdf, it won't be able to fetch more servers from hard coded Steam masterservers. MasterServer.vdf is just some kind of additional resource for masterservers.

You can find these kind of values around c6450h. Take a look at IPs on the right side and change them to whatever you wish (they have been changed already, every IP has some value over 255).



It could be possible to change those IPs to point to certain address, but anyway one would need to modify MasterServer.vdf to exclude official Steam masterservers. Dropping the official servers out from ServerBrowser.dll makes it more flexible to just change values in MasterServer.vdf without need to edit ServerBrowser.dll in hex mode.

Add servercheck if it's cracked or not (there's documentation on this board somewhere about it)
if not cracked = drop

You mean this: http://css.setti.info/servers-excluded.php

no

easy explanation:
You can check a server if it's cracked or not by sending it "packets" to join a server. If it allows connection without dropping it's cracked

dunno I don't have much information about this lol bugmenot knows more about this, I never looked into it.... but this might be a better way to keep legit servers away from the master.

@ maddox

thats what it already does...

u didnt check the page did u? confess

Doh. Get a grip, MaddoxX. You mean this: http://css.setti.info/servers-excluded. ... .110:27015

Yes and no. You're screwing over all the cracked servers if you don't properly disconnect from the server, the bot will end up filling real player slots. Right now, Remix and I are the only ones who know how to do that. PM for documentation.

right, i didn't look on that page that long

Hah. Don't get cocky. Only |2emiX's CSN is filling up slots. Sending one packet once in a while won't flood any server, hundreds of people using CSN querying servers will.

"Remix and I are the only ones who know...". Should we praise you or what?

Still I hate perl

Very nice. I've always like the idea of having our own master servers, but when I tried using the old one, it would always freeze and then access the original steam master servers. MY favorite thing about this is now I can leave PG2 enabled when I play DZ CSS because this means we are finally completely non-reliant on the steam system (correct me if I'm wrong, I haven't put too much thought into it).

theres a part of master server.

That remark was unnecessary. I spent days researching how disconnects work and shared that information with Remix. If you want to know how it works, I would recommend that you contact either myself or Remix.



It'd be nice if VALVe shared more of their internal documentation on the master server protocol with the public
