Making your server accessible by the general gaming public:
You want people to come and play? Well
then they have to be able to find you.
Plugin: Gamespy of course (but there's
other things, such as Pingtool, or KALI).
All you gotta do is, click on the following link, and add your IP address to the PQ/Ritualistic SiN server list, and it will filter down through Gamespy, Pingtool, KALI, and most anything else (they all leech off PQ).
asp.planetquake.com/sinserverlist/output.asp
Some of you may be saying "Well what about the setmaster variable and heartbeats?" Well, I don't think SiN has a master server, so scratch that =).
Remember, public has to be set to 1 in order for your server to be open and "public":
public 1
Note that you want people to be happy, YOU are serving them. You really should setup dmflags to what most ppl like them as (weapons stay, no falling damage). Also, don't go rendering in 3Ds, or browsing porn while ppl are playing... can u say MUCHOS LAGGOS? You want return players, regulars (if u have a 24hr server that is =). Server names are a good place to advertise URL's, wink wink =).
