10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>Hmm.. So what exactly is sent from the
client to the gamespy layer to get it to send back server information? In the
old BF1942 server, all that was needed was to send \xff\status\ or \player\info
to the UDP/23000 socket, and it would start singing.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>This one is a bit different, as it seems
like the first 20 bytes after the IP layer are somewhat different, except that
there’s the occasional 23.456 that is sent to the server, and the
response is the server information back to the client…<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p><font size=2 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>you could

<p><font size=2 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>in the
hours i while away waiting for builds on my suck machine, i poked around a
little bit more at the gamespy layer. the problem is that there is a hard limit
for the amount of data that gets sent for the handling of an 'old query' in the
version of the library we're using. </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><font size=2 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>nobody
else seemed to have done this, but the place where things get cut off is at
position 2048, an odd # in the non-number theory sense, and not coincidentally
the gamespy hard limit.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><font size=2 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>we're
'not allowed' to modify gamespy code, so that's out, but can you guys just use
whatever the 'new query' format is?</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
