I have to be honest, I didn't read all the replies/posts, but this is what I use on my servers and I do have scroll bars.

Re: [hlds] Can't spare the bandwidth?
But what's the point when people have said over and over again that to redirect your motd to an external webpage all you have to do is put the link in with nothing else at all?

Not 9 replies... Just 9 to this message. 1500 messages in my inbox, but that isn't the point. What the URL for your motd? Here are two sample motds that I have.

It uses embedded Internet Explorer, so other than a few bright people who know how to make Windows Use Firefox and those people who are using Wine on Linux, you only have to worry about IE for HL1/2 games. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Deacon - Digital Gaming eXtreme Sent: Monday, January 23, 2006 12:05 PM To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: RE: [hlds] Can't spare the bandwidth?

One way to overcome this is to replace the contents of the motd with an address: http://www.example.com/motd.html Which will make the game load that web page as the motd, which can be any size from experience. - Andrew -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Visitor Rodgers Sent: Saturday, 21 January 2006 4:33 PM To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: [hlds] Can't spare the bandwidth?

Just use the motd.txt to point to a webpage containing the motd you want.
