Hello,

I want to query the gamespy master server to look for all live gameservers for a specific game. (arma2oapc, arma2pc)
But I do not understand how it works. I have looked into the source code of gslist, but I am not able to figure out how the query works. :(
Well, I know I have to send two queries and after the first one I will get the "challenge" code, but what do I have to do with this code?
Simply resend it with another packet does not work.

It would be nice if someone could explain me the procedure step by step. But please not with source code in c. I want to implement it with python and so it would be better if you use technical terms instead of examples. (Unless anyone can show me a python example ;-) )

the problem is that it's not a so simple thing because other than the protocol involved (you can take a look at it with a sniffer during the query) there is all the encryption part involved so in any case there is C stuff (enctypex.c and gsmsalg).

probably there are a couple of threads on this forum talking about this matter but don't know if they can help
