Hi,

I am a Linux user and recently started playing this game and I think it's just great but as of today I can't get any servers from the master server. I tried to input that fix on the home page in the console but it states "cl_master" is not a proper command. I looked in the server.config file and there is no line for "cl_master to change. Can you help me?

Thank you in advance...

search for master.urbanterror.net and change it to master.urbanterror.info

its not in the server config, its in the q3config.cfg in your /home/user/.q3a/q3ut4 directory

Thank you for responding!

Ok...so I couldn't find the line states "cl_master....there are three lines:

seta sv_master4 "master.quake3arena.com"
seta sv_master3 "master2.urbanterror.net"
seta sv_master2 "master.urbanterror.net"

So I changed the seta sv_master2 to read .info, saved and went out and started the game...still no servers. I went back to the config and it changed BACK to .net....seems the game just defaults it back.

Just launch the game, press the tilde (~) key and enter:
\cl_master "master.urbanterror.info"
You are editing the wrong variables in the config. If you want to do it in the config, change the value for cl_master. Still, far easier to do from the UrT console.

I did just as you said...quite a few times and it still tells me that cl_master is not a valid command. I opened the config and and searched for cl_master and there is no line for this the only lines are what I wrote above. I'm truly at a loss now but thank you very much for trying...

If you use a recent variant of ioquake3 that cvar is removed. It uses server1 which is overriden by urt code at UI startup. A workaround I used on my builds was to override it back [in case it determines it uses master.urbanterror.net].

Hi there.
I have the same problem, running UrT at Linux (Fedora 14, 64Bit).
Seems to be that there is no way to change the master by using the console or by editing the q3config. This isn't also working.

@mitsubishi: I don't get the point. You are talking about a "reinstall" ?

That IP is probably old. Try 91.121.24.62

I was talking about the client version. Do you use the binary provided by the game .zip or something else? If you use something else it might be a recent ioquake3 that has cl_master removed and uses sv_master1 for that job. It can be workarounded by "overriding the override" urt does on it [and that would need a 'reinstall']. (it could also use sv_master2 theoretically but for some reason it's stuck and doesn't do it).

Thanks! That solved the problem for me. Can find the servers now. :)
