MOTD
#1
I run serveral HL2DM servers and have noticed since the 7/2 update, the MOTD is not working on my windows servers but still works on the Linux boxes. Does anyone know how to fix? I normally run Mani and SourceMod but have Mani disabled till fixed.

Thanks for any help,
Daad

From the Valve game update notes for 7/2/12:

"Updated the HTML renderer for displaying server MOTD"

scso1502, Thanks for your reply.

Here is the coding. The text displays but the JPG does not always display. I have the same coding running on the linux server and it runs like always. On the two windows servers it is there and then not there. Very inconsistant. If you see something that might help, it would be great. This one of the last lingering issues from the latest steam update.

I am also having this problem on my SRCDS windows servers and I run 3 servers all with the same type of setup and the SAME motd. 1 of the 3 servers motd works and the other 2 dont and they use the same exact motd. Here is my motd let me know if you find anything wrong with it. It setup so it just loads an image and stretches it to fit the in game motd window. This is also a DoD:S servers.

Daad... Check your image link. The first thing I tried was accessing it from a web browser and the link is no good. Once that work, test it again and let me know if it's fixed. Something may have changed with the image file location and you are actually seeing a cached copy of the image sometimes making it appear to work when it really doesn't. Let me know.
