Graeme Devine .plan Update -- 9:13 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun

id's Graeme Devine updated his .plan with a solution for Q3ADemo users who get booted back to the main menu when thye try to connect to a server.

Why do I get booted back to the main menu?

It's because you've got a 1.11 client and you're trying to join a 1.09 (demo test) pure server.

Since the protocol # is exactly the same, you see all the 1.09 servers in the browser, but when you try and join the game you get booted because you aren't "pure".

We'll switch off support for 1.09 listings in the browser once 1.11 demo is out for the Mac and Linux. Meanwhile there's not much I can do since I can't tell from the client side if you're a 1.09 or 1.11 client asking for list of available servers.

Until then, download this Gamespy tab for Q3ADemo, or this one for the full version of Q3A. Then you can use Gamespy to filter out the servers you can't connect to.
