Not seeing anything in the client>server list. Anybody else getting this?

Could connect to the Air Combat Group server ok through direct connect remembering the last connection

If i remember correctly, that's some kind of Steam mix-up but a workaround exists:

a) Start your own server from your PC for a couple of minutes (just host a mission and slap a password on so people don't accidentally join). Apparently this sort of forces a "refresh" to the whole system.

b) Exit your hosting session.

c) Go back to the client menu and the servers should now list correctly.

I haven't had to do this yet because i never faced the problem up till now, but as far as i can remember that was the workaround proposed by everyone else.

Hope it helps ;)

It is but dont you need some kind of special beta program and have to register on their forums? Also you can only see servers which have some kinda code in the name? - Not all. I did not like the user interface of the program 3 years ago, is it still archaic and clunky?

HyperLobby has passed through the beta and is now official.4.3.2.It should update when you log in.It now has an officially supported Clod room.

You still need Steam running.

We needed hyperlobby before as the only alternative was X-fire or direct connection. The chat feature on hyperlobby was ok but you dont really need it when you have TS3...

I cant really think of a reason to use hyperlobby... If you need steam running all you are doing is limiting the amount of servers you can see...

I'm put off Hyperlobby totally because of that horrid admin girl who used to be on it bullying or banning everybody she could in the IL21946 lobby and laughing about her super powers. A terrible administrator.

Won't be using it because of that reason alone.

Don't remember her name but she used to gob off at people in the chat bar and if they said anything that didn't sit well with the lunatic she would ban and then laugh about it. What an awful person - power with no control, but you reap what you sow don't you.
