Topic: Favorite's and Freinds *help*

[DeadGoat]

I've tried to add several servers to my Favorites list. First by clicking " Add Current server", then adding the servers IP address and it never shows up in my favorites list.

As well, when I go into the page that names all the current players on a server, the option to add somone as a freind is gray, so then I try'n add they're name manually and it always say's it can't find their name.

Has anyone else had a problem like this or know of some things I could check or do ?

the latest steam updates have rendered both useless for now,
they might try to fix them again, but who knows when....
they just got favorites working about a month ago, now its
busted again?

I don't know, but it's really irritateing finding ppl like the guys from THIS site and never haveing any concrete way to play with them again.

Same goes for finding good servers (like I played on last night) that have a good choice of maps and the whole spawn killing protection and a smooth connection

Good stuff I can't access a second time

that's our server IP>

hl2dm.killazinc.net:27015

copy and paste...

[Smackintosh]

or you should be able to go to the killazinc.net homepage
and click the "Play HL2DM with KillazInc Now!" link to direct connect.

Strange, Favorites and Friends seem to work fine for me.

Smack, the server who's link is on the main page, is that the server we were on last night ?

Yes.

K, well that makes it all easier. I'll prolly just play on that server ususally (if there's ppl on it)

not mine, and for some reason xfire won't recognize our css server anymore, it just displays it as a css server. usually it gives the actual name of it along with all the server data

I just got mine to work.  Don't ask me how but it does.  I did format and reinstall Steam and all my games yesterday.

Who knows.

Try deleting the clientregistry.blob file in your Steam dir. (close Steam first).

I'm almost positive I deleted it  a while ago for some log-in problem I was haveing (which it fixed)

Which explains why I can't find it now. So, I guess I can completly reinstall steam if it comes to that. At the moment it's just an inconvienience.

[mephisto_kur]

the clientregistry.blob is recreated when you log in.  If you have played since you deleted it, but can't find it, you are looking in the wrong place.

[DeadGoat]

K, I found it and deleted it

We'll just see if anything changes
