Enemy Territory server list fix

[Pedro-NF]

Paul ,the developer of Trackbase, has modified the ET.exe file.
Now you can connected again to servers via the server list.

Make a copy of your original ET.exe and secure it somewhere.
Unzip the archive and copy the fixed ET.exe in your Enemy Territory folder.
Start your game.

when was the server list broken? i used it like 3 days ago without an issue

etmaster.idsoftware.com has been down for about a week and there is a new list from Trackbase at master0.etmaster.net, but to have access to it you need to use the modified ET.EXE files from the link in the first post. You must have seen the list that was in the server list cache - click on REFRESH and you shouldn't see any servers anymore.

Rudi Visser has developed a Proxytool for the ET serverlist - As all ET Players have probably figured out by now, id Software have turned off their master server for unknown reasons. This basically means that there are no server listings available at all for the time being. Nobody knows when they will turn it back on, if at all.

Thankfully the community came to the rescue, with Paul creating a backup master server. However, his solution requires the user to either use custom ET.exe files, or modify their hosts file.

What I have done is made a service that will proxy requests through to the appopriate master server. Rather than having to modify your hosts file or replace another file, simply download the installer and run it. It's always going to select the correct server, so if id software's master server comes back online, it will connect to that, otherwise it will use Paul's.

I will make it switch between them also, so we have a highly redundant network without the need for modifying ET files or providing a PK3.
Instructions: needs NET Framework 3.0, download file, run and play!

I was wondering if any one got the linux version to work? Not that I would want to play on any other server!

If you did get it to work what steps did you take and where do you copy the new file. When I try to copy it too /usr/games folder I get a permission error should I move it the terminal?

Short statement of ID Software on Twitter because of the master servers

"We recently became aware of a possible issue on the Wolf:ET master server. We´re working on a solution and will update when we have more info."
