My online browser has been updated, especially the functionality and content.

I have ran out of space for icons so I will have to do something with that to add more Big grin

Here is the OA server list:

http://clanarena.org/arena/OpenArena-Server-Browser

I have tried to make it quick as possible by using caching methods. Currently it will cache for about 10 mins and then the next person to click it will probably have a second or two wait time for the new page to cache. I haven't fully tested it Big grin

edit: i am going to leave it in cached state for now until i fix a couple of things

quickly added explus.. soon i will add a pulldown menu to filter more data... like protocol for eg. I want to try to avoid this if possible so if there's anything that would be helpful to be shown seperately let me know.

The design and logo maybe crap but its 0530 here.. i just woke up and that happened to be the next thing on my things do do list D''oh

Also, for people with clans, it's a good idea to add them to the server config. google will pick these up so good for PR Happy

(i still prefer the e+ spider for simplicity)

only con comment i have on it is it seems cluttered and/or needs a simpler way of organization

Thanks for the feedback. The entire site is cluttered Big grin The whole point is to try and get some more interest and life back into q3 based games.

The idea is that google will pick up every bit of info it can find.

I see theres a few freeze server on ioq3. If there's any recommended ones we can try then I can see if I can get a few people playing. Is it any good there? I know there were some issues with 1.35 but apparently sorted with 1.36 so going to check out a few servers tonight if i can grab a few people
