*** DESCRIPTION ****
*********************
This is a small modification of the "Join Server" menu to allow switching between several MasterServer : RavenSoft, JKHUB, Ouned and MBII.
The mod change the function of two buttons :
"Get New List" => Now, it change the masterserver. To know what masterserver is now used, just open the console. Warning, when pressing this button, the list is actualised with the previous masterserver. Press "Update" to see the list with the new masterserver.
"Update" => Now, it gets a new serverlist from the selected masterserver.
!!! THIS MOD NEEDS TO BE USED WITH OPENJK EXES TO WORK CORRECTLY. IT WILL NOT WORK WITH JAMP.EXE BECAUSE SV_MASTER1 IS PROTECTED !!!
*********************
*** INSTALLATION ****
*********************
- Just put the switch_masterserver.pk3 in your base or mod folder. If it doesnot work, you can try to rename it "zzzzzzz_switch_masterserver.pk3".
- If you have Japlus, JA++ or OJP, you can put the dedicated "switch_masterserver_japp.pk3" (for Japlus and JA++) or "switch_masterserver_ojp.pk3" (for OJP) in your "japlus/ojpenhanced" folder in place of "switch_masterserver.pk3"
- For other mods, you can put switch_masterserver.pk3 in the mod folder. It should work. The only change is that you will have the base join menu in place of the mod join menu.
*********************
*** KNOWN BUGS ****
*********************
The mod uses a "autoexec.cfg" to allow switching between masterservers. If you have your own autoexec.cfg (or if your mod uses one, for example ForceMod III), there will be conflicts.
You must add these lines in your own autoexec.cfg :
seta masternext "vstr masterraven"
seta masterraven "seta sv_master1 "masterjk3.ravensoft.com"; echo "^4MasterServer: ^5Ravensoft"; set masternext "vstr masterjkhub" "
seta masterjkhub "seta sv_master1 "master.jkhub.org"; echo "^4MasterServer: ^3JkHub"; set masternext "vstr masterouned" "
seta masterouned "seta sv_master1 "master.ouned.de"; echo "^4MasterServer: ^1Ouned"; set masternext "vstr mastermb2" "
seta mastermb2 "seta sv_master1 "master.moviebattles.org"; echo "^4MasterServer: ^6MBII"; set masternext "vstr masterraven" "
