Title: Server says its from Britain but its actually in US?
Post by: redstorm on December 04, 2006, 11:25:41 PM
Our clan is renting a couple servers from another clan and they changed service providers a couple weeks ago. And now it says its from britain but its actually in the US from what we're told. And I get about the same ping as our old server so it would pretty much have to be in the US area. The problem comes in that many people do the (From my country only) thing for server so they won't even look at it or pay attention to a different country's servers. So we can't exactly get any new recruits because the main people that come to our server is from Britain or something and they usually get like 200+ ping.

   

   Is there anything we can do to change it or would we have to get the service provider to change it?

   

   Thanks,

Thats odd if you get the same ping as before it cant be from Britain, maybe ask your service provider,

    or ask the clan your renting from since they have the rights to the box

Ok I contacted him and he said it was in chicago. And he also told me how to check if it was and when I looked it said that too. He also said there should be something in the server.cfg that will make it show whether its in the U.K. or U.S. and has something to deal with the CVARS. Anyone know what the cvar code could possibly be?

I use this in my config ...

   

   

   sets "Location" "UK"
   

   

   Just add to somewhere near the top of your server.cfg ( edit the UK to USA of course :P - you just need the code in the black window )

The same thing happend with our servers. I contacted gamespy and they told me that they update the servers every month. Give it some time and it will show up as a US server soon.
