GameSpy & CDKey
by Steve Gibson, Dec 03, 1999 12:11pm PSTA warning for you guys who just got Quake3 and are attempting to use GameSpy. There seems to be a bit of a conflict right now which causes some people attempting to connect through GameSpy to get a "someone else is using this CD key" error. Not quite sure what the problem is but for now I'd suggest just using the internal browser or just copying/pasting the IP from GameSpy to the console. (You can paste using shift-insert) Of course, once this problem is fixed you'll want to use this GameSpy filter to find all the registered servers.update Jack - I just spoke to Graeme at id who's looking into it on their end. It turns out it's not a GameSpy-specific problem, because doing quake3 +connect <ip> does the same thing. As soon as we come up with some sort of workaround, I'll let you guys know. I'm sure we'll be putting out a newer version of GameSpy soon to better support the final game anyway. By the way, this problem doesn't happen to everybody it seems.

I get to
awaiting gamestate...
in the connect deal and it doesn\'t go any further. DM works fine. This happens to me through gspy, through connect <ip> and through the server browser in q3 all three.
only happening in CTF every other type of game everything is a-ok
b00la
Quake2 in the past, is something different than importing the tab?
another thing, I heard it works over LAN without CDkey auth... does that mean I will be able to play my brother without him having to shell out cash (he\'s only 8yrs old so he\'s not the richest guy:))
Give props dude, go BUY it !!!!
Warez version are not gonna work on the internet anyways, a la 1/2 life and Starcraft...
