Yep- we're gonna create sub directories for the server-based games like there is now in wireview

The speed that it takes for the computer to draw the interface? when I load it up it must take over 30 secs just to draw all the little boxes and buttons.

(I am using a PPro200 64Mb ram and win98) so it is a bit of a morris minor of a system

Suggestion
when selecting Half life there must be 30 servers or more - could you have a sub directory where you chose

Half-life
Select mod i.e. TFC CS or HL
and only then does it refresh the servers and see who is logged on. this would speed up things I'm sure since I only look for friends on TFC (CS - ick) and trawling through all the servers takes time

also can you write some code to cope with unexpected disconnects - i don't know what message i got but a simple box with connection lost would be better than the warning boxes I got

apart from that I like it - haven't had much chance to play but roll on saturday http://www.gameplayerz.com/ubb/smile.gif

The drawing time on the first load will be slow because the client is having to pull *all* the pictures, XML, CSS, etc. from the server.

Subsequent loads should be much quicker as everything is in a local cache.

We hope to be able to supply a pre-loaded cache in later builds (when the content is more stable).
