Ok I have a debug version of qstat with fixed steam master server support up and running. Can everyone download and run with the following command line: qstat -stm,game=cstrike 207.173.177.12 URL: http://gaming.multiplay.co.uk/downloads/qstat-steam_debug.zip
Note: This is purely a debug version and will not actually query the servers its is ONLY testing the master server response.
The output will be something like: No servers = 232, 1 No servers = 463, 2 ... No servers = 29610, 129 Total servers = 29609, 129
The source code is there for anyone who wants to compile it under linux etc.
For those on linux or who have a packet capture program installed you may wish to run it up while running this test. What we are looking for is the number of packets sent / recieved from the master 207.173.177.12.
If the number of packets recieved differs from the second number reported by qstat in the last line we could be looking at an out of order issue. Currently on the reciept of a packet ending in a NULL address qstat will terminate processing. Im not sure if steam does the same thing or not but this may running it will at least provide us with a good idea on what is going on.
