Lost my Favorite Servers and Can't save new ones?

« on: November 03, 2006, 09:02:15 AM »

Anyone else having this problem since the last update?

I had a bunch of favorite servers, but with the new dynamic pricing update they got erased.No big deal since it looked like half of them the night before didn't even exist anymore.

But now it looks like i can't save new favorites that i have found.

anyone else have this problem nor know how to fix it?

I think i may have fixed it. found an article on HardOCP's {old forum i use to hang out in before the Admin took the Car Section of the forum out and decided people should have to pay for it after a fight}

There is a fix for this.

Start steam, and directly launch the game. Now, click on "find servers" and select the favorites tab and in the filters options, select from the dropdown menu "Secure", even if it's allready there. Exit the game. Start the game up again and open the server browser at the favorites tab and select "Secure" again and click "Refresh."

Don't do anything else in between like browsing for server with the out of game server browser.

Another one is to go into the steam dir,find the servers folder and delete the serverbrowser.dll file, it will come back{but i usually just move it out of the folder just in case}
