Here's a suggestion, can you put "Hide black list servers" and "don't show notify windows" above "open location"?

I am used to "refresh all servers" be the last in list.

I love XBrowser's features and hopefully now that there is a Umod maybe more clients will install this. Now if we can just get more server admins to install XServerQuery.

^.. Notice Flags and extra info , as well as click-able link to email etc..

This mod really doesn't get enough attention , I have been using it since the beginning and it is simply stunning.

there are perhaps 20-30 servers using it atm but more need to join in imo..

also I would ask that {G}ott continue development of this mod and add a few more features to it in the future..

Like a Search Box :)

so players can type part names into it and all servers get filtered in the list to find which ever server they are looking for

now in terms of admins getting users to install the UMOD. what I recommend doing is.. using a combination of 2 mods allow this ability ;

ServerAdds Download
SendTo Download

XBrowser UMOD: download

ok so what I propose you do is a simple advert in the serveradd's like so;

Code: Select all

Type !xbrowser to download the New Server Browser Query. (opens Webbrowser , alt+enter to see download)
Thats it.. and clients will immediately receive the download dialog via web-browser :D

Search function in a new tab can be nice, searching server name, and have a drop down selection of gametypes... I guess.
