Patches your server.dat, it removes the IP of the ping server that is offline from server.dat.

Too bad that it appears that the ping-server is USA based, and thus euro servers will have a higher ping Neutral

accually the euro server ping will still go down with this app.

Im currently working on v2 of this app that should lower the ping even more and make it a more accurate ping reading for all countries.

But it will also give the EU servers a bad appearance because their ping will be higher then the USA ones.

lol Olaf, do you really think he is moving his ass for Renegade ? Razz

When people ask me "Plz" just because it's shorter than "Please" I feel perfectly justified to answer "No" because it's shorter then "Yes"

Are you talking about the problem where players see ping as 999? That was because during the xwis transition, people used the xwis tool to change their hosts file to direct them to xwis's servers. Easier fix? Use that same tool, set it back to the default WOL ip, and problem solved, correct pings dispplayed according to your connection speed In Love

Next some servers use firewalls and these firewalls blocked ping communication for example some MP-Gaming servers. I think these servers was already fixed.
