GMOD Prime - An Alternative Server Browser (alpha!) - Garry's Mod

I haven't really been considering mobile users because I didn't think anyone would really take the time to copy the ips manually, where doesn't the button show up?

Hh, make the server owners put their server in a category when the add it? Would help for searching and such i assume? And does that review thing change the position of the server on the list? Because it shouldn't ( in my opinion at least ) maybe make it randomly generate the list unles you search for something?

searching is fixed, sidebar floats now [QUOTE=AJ10017;46686186]where i tried it, you cant submit reviews and you cant submit comments on peoples profiles[/QUOTE] I'll look into it, but it's not really a priority right now

it's been a couple days! I just pushed decent-sized update, fixed some stuff on the backend and added a notifications system, which I'm surprised no one suggested. next on the todo list is support for communities/multiple servers, so I'll keep everyone posted!

[QUOTE=frietje2008;46711718]check gmod tower out 70/64 players online bug?[/QUOTE] reserved slots / sv_maxvisibleplayers

Yeah, they actually allow up to a 100-something

Brilliant job. This site is very neat, organized and simple. I already added two servers. I would also like a way to sort by gamemode. Also, you may not want to allow gifs as headers, I can imagine them being quite obnoxious, and distracting. I'm assuming signature HTML codes for forums will be implemented at some point too? Here's one thing to note though, and it's something you may have to attempt to counter. When it comes to Gmod servers, few people actually come to comment on a server positively unless they are from the community themselves. It reminds me of GameTracker where the only comments people make on a server are "I was banned for no reason, can I get unbanned?" - RandomBannedGuy and "This server sucks the admins are bad and it's bad." - RandomButtHurtBannedPlayer. I feel that people don't generally go out of their way to make remarks unless it's negative, even when the majority of opinions are positive. In a way, I feel that will make this site more of a third party rant site about how mad you are at certain admins, etc. rather than the quality of the server overall. I would suggest displaying a message when signing in that this website is not a complaint or rant outlet and shouldn't be used solely for these purposes. Again, I love the concept and layout. Hope to see this grow. Edit: I tested using a gif, and yes, it is distracting.

All hail the shaky banners! But here are some more bugs you may or may not now about with sorting. [t]http://puu.sh/dwvya/6c5fd5635e.jpg[/t] Why are offline servers ranked high when they should have 0 players? EDIT: Turns out offline may be my side because I refreshed and it had players... [t]http://puu.sh/dwvHD/205e757c7f.jpg[/t] Why do servers with players on them get ranked below server with none? EDIT: Turns out that sorting doesn't apply to any page after the first even if it is reapplied. When refreshing the page, the sort by and order by selections get reset. What do you mean by "sort by time", is it time since server start? Why would you sort by that?

uploading gifs is intentional I'll look into the sorting stuff when I get a chance thanks for the support! [editline]a[/editline] also, sorting by time means sorting by the time the server was added and the review system that's up now is the best that anyone could come up with, if you can come up with something that'll work better I'll try to add it

Suggestion: Make a way to post a server package, You type in your community name Wower Gaming, then the logo, and the ips. When you click on it it shows the community's servers. Just a thought to reduce server spam from one community.

that's what I'm working on now, it might take a while because I've had stuff going on but I'm trying my best to get it done this is what it'll look like: [t]http://puu.sh/dA2bD/b6b0f8d703.png[/t] [t]http://puu.sh/dA2cv/c1691b30fa.png[/t]

bad news guys. I just finished rewriting the backend for the update, and it ended up being a lot bigger than I thought. I'm gonna have to clear the database, which means that all the servers are gonna have to be added again. it's a setback, but it's definitely for the best, because we won't have pages like [url=http://i.imgur.com/9Kte7iV.png]this[/url] anymore (no offense exile!) and we can all start fresh after the comment drama. the good news is that this update is gonna push the website into beta, and after adding support for sorting/searching by region, I'll just be fixing bugs and stuff! that means I can start posting about prime everywhere, and hopefully it'll start to get more and more popularity. just be sure to save a copy of any descriptions or banners that you wanna keep, and I'll keep you guys posted!

Great work! A wipe is probably for the best

since I can't show ips or players on the little cards anymore, what should I add? [img]http://i.imgur.com/pQcVvpI.png[/img] these are what they look like now, but I wanna know what you guys would wanna see on them

You should make it show the collective players of all servers a community has.

something like '(all players) on (number of servers)'?

[QUOTE=PortalGod;46798909]something like '(all players) on (number of servers)'?[/QUOTE] Something like "100/300 players on 6 servers"

[img]http://i.imgur.com/uxIuiiD.png[/img] this is what I came up with, but is showing the feedback going to cause drama again?

it's live everybody! prime has officially been updated for communities instead of servers. this will hopefully clean up a ton of the clutter. as a result, everything has been reset, which means everybody can start out with a clean slate. on the plus side, we're in beta! I'm typing up a reddit post as we speak, and I also plan to post it on the SPUF. if anyone else has any suggestions, or wants to spread the word themselves, feel free! as always, if anyone finds any bugs or has any suggestions, let me know!

Images 404 after upload.

yep, fixed that too, try again :v:

It would be nice to be able to upload images per server, too.

the idea with that is to use the one banner for all your servers, like these (randomly taken from minecraftservers.org) [img]http://minecraftservers.org/banners/167701385535826.jpg[/img] [img]http://minecraftservers.org/banners/198121394002096.gif[/img] [editline]30th December 2014[/editline] looks like comments are messed up, working on it [editline]30th December 2014[/editline] comments are fixed but I think favorites are broken, working on that now [editline]30th December 2014[/editline] fixed favorites!

You should re-add the option to sort by players.
