The Motd seems not to be working.

I put my server stuff in it just like I did with v1.34, But it seams to not work.

Can anyone help me with this.

1.35 Changelog wrote:[Add]ConVar 'motdurl' any url used with this ConVar (change it's value to 'none' or simply '' to use the motdfile ConVar) will automatcally get's the current version string passed trough (PHP: $_GET["version"]) which makes the MOTD more dynamic, feel free to request more...

i think you should provide more info rather than just "it doesent work".
dunno what sort of information, because ive never worked with MOTD's so i dont know anything about them, but your current info doesent help much imho.

that's what the bugtracker is for, i can't remember any bug someone finds D:

the bugtracker however is kinda like a todo list where you can select if you know the bug etc. which makes easier to remeber.

If you find a bug: post it on the bugtracker, same goes for feature-requsts :O

PS: it can also create a changelog out of the bug reports, so that is kinda included there too

Add

Code: Select all

motdurl "none"
to server.cfg. Note that it does not take effect on the first map load, only the subsequent ones. This means every time you restart your server/it crashes, you will see the default OC motd until the map changes.

thx
