That is probably the reason, the overview of the maps are outdated as well.

Some limitation in the gamespy reporting, IIRC.

PRSpy hasn't been updated since v1.0's release. Hopefully we will in the future but its not very high priority since it works as it stands and we have bigger fish to fry :)

Possibly, would have to speak to AM about that but it might be possible with some extra coding to fix it but dunno.

I don't know about you, but my PRSPY (on Chrome) is showing up to 100 players.

Click on the server, the scoreboard will show only max 64 people.

Gamepsy is the limitation as discussed previously.
https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f10-pr ... prspy.html

There was even a suggestion on how to fix it.

So basically how the thing works:

BF2 server running and tells about itself to Gamespy (server_ip:gamespy_port)
Gamespy sends just "FE FD 00 5D AC 81 59 FF FF FF FF FF FF FF 01" UDP packet to that ip :p ort and receives 1-3 (depends on player count) packets with all the information about map, mode, player names etc.
Its also maximum of 64 players like the nametags so might look like too hard to fix.

Here comes the mumble server which has all the names.
So devs need to just replace the gamespy:
pr_serverlauncher running and tells realitymod.com about itself
prspy based on that information querying the server info from the server and the full player list from the mumble.
Easy.

Yeah, using mumble is not the way to do it, and besides, we don't have a server launcher ;)

Anyway, PRSPY has been updated to show 100 players, but it won't be until servers actually report the 100 players that it will show up, which will happen in the next update (unless they are ninja servers and get the code before then ;) ).

The ingame server browser, and other servers browsers will still report only 64 players, as that is a game limitation.
