"Test App"

by Anthony Rosenbaum · in Torque Game Engine · 06/18/2002 (6:04 am) · 3 replies

In the scripts there is a place where you change the string "Test App" to your game's name. However, several months ago when I changed this I couldn't find my game anymore when I would query the master server. Is this still true or has this been fixed. Also I noticed if the scripts are slightly different sometimes you can't find a hosted game even if it is still set as "Test App" can someone confirm this?

You have to change it in two places I believe; one for the server to "register" with the master server and again for the client to find the right game and server when it queries the master server. I don't have the code in front of me at the moment, but try this:
