Ok I just checked it out.. was very nice, I love the pop-up balloon telling me where the good guys are - one thing I did notice is: if your sort a server by frags, the order is wrong, it thinks 23 is less than 3, so it only looks at the first number when sorting..

I'll try again tomorrow and report it to you. Don't hurry, you can add that in next release with more bug fixes :wink:

Thanks for the tip. It's been added to my to-do list :)

Hopefully I'll be able to nail down what bugs are left this week. (Although there's really no such thing as bugfree software :)).

Hmm. You have the same problem as AssKick3r. Any of you getting any error messages?

AssKick3r, Uncle-.

It might be a problem with the default ANSI setting on your computers. I think I've got it fixed now.

I've updated the hotfix .zip file. Try and download, see if it fixes it.

You the man, Span. Now it works!

One suggestion, could you add team scores? And if it is possible teamnames too? I've always wanted that but ASE only has team scores, which doesn't really help if you don't know who is in which team. That would be helpful in cw servers, of course.
Maybe teamname by everyone's name would be even better - it would work for publics too, not just cw ones.

Thanks mate :D

About your suggestion tho. The problem is that I only get teamscores in response from the server when I run a status query. Something like that would require server-side support :?

But there's one thing that I've been thinking a bit about tho, and that is to make an Aq2TV service, like the one CounterStrike has got. I doubt I'll ever get around to making something like that tho, it would require an awful lot of work and time. But it would've been a nice feature :)

Did you install .NET framework 2.0? What does the error message say?

Oh, nevermind then.

About AQ2TV, there's already Q2TV tho I don't know if it works. Uncle and I have already tried it out and it didn't work. Maybe Uncle has some extra info for you.
I have client and server zips if you want them.

Well, if there already's made such an app, I guess there's no point :?

But I appreciate any suggestions I get :)

Now it works great.

About that Q2TV thingy. There were two projects, one was Q2sp (which is proxy and you watched the player who had the server) and the Q2TV which never worked for me =) Would be great to have at least gamecast thingy with recording demo etc :< Like CODTV :)

Offtopic! O_o
