Hi, We're writing updates to the script to solve this problem. (To avoid the caching).
We'll be posting it asap on the webpage, along with the server query codes.

The problem I have is that when I join the server, I see the motd with the right currentmap/nextmap colored, but after a changemap, the image has not been refreshed. I've made several tests using the url linked above outside tf2, and the update is fine. It seems TF2 (client-side) caches the motd. Am I wrong? I've made other tests, like changing map, then disconnect and reconnect to my TF2 server, but the motd was still not updated. So I stopped the server, made specific config files for the first 2 maps, with motdfile "motdtest1.txt" for the first map config, and motdfile "motdtest2.txt" for the second one, each motdfile being a simple text file saying the map name. I restarted the server, joined it, and the motd I saw was... still the graphical one. So what do I do wrong? Does someone know where is the motd cached? How can I be sure of what does work and what doesn't work? When I'll be done with that, I'll publish my php motd source code for those who want it Thanks for your help Cold' On Sun, Jun 15, 2008 at 7:41 PM, Patrick Shelley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'm gonna mess about with this later today - will let u know how i get on. > > Cheers Saint ! > _______________________________________________ > To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, > please visit: > http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux > _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
