Hello, if you want to help with testing the new GLS, follow these instructions:
Quote:For joining the public beta you just need to modify your freelancer.ini in your EXE folder.
You’ll find the following line:
hostname = fllistserver.zone.msn.com ; GUN server in Redmond (DNS entry)
Replace that line with the following lines:
;hostname = fllistserver.zone.msn.com ; GUN server in Redmond (DNS entry)
hostname = gun.fllistserver.com
This works for servers and clients. Feel free to add your server.
Known issues till now:
* The “update” button won’t work
* You won’t get a list after leaving a server
Feel free to report any bugs etc.
I updated it on our server so it should be listed on the new GLS as well.
For any updates, read the news on this page:

Thanks to Crazy for running this beauty for the FL community!

Mal, I'd explain, but I'm not at my home PC right now. I'll put it all together when I get home.

In case nobody has PMed the solution to Mal...
- Open your Windows Explorer and go to your Freelancer Installation folder, then the subfolder "EXE". (e.g. "C:\Programs\Microsoft Games\Freelancer\EXE")
- In that folder, there is a data file called "freelancer.ini" (the ".ini"-part of the name might not be displayed, but there are only two "freelancer" files: the .exe that starts the game and the .ini, with the editor/cog wheel-symbol) that - as you suspected - can be opened with the text editor.
- Once you open the file, you'll see the fifth paragraph, "[ListServer]". That is where you find the line makjp mentioned above.
- Replace said line with the ones makjp has listed, close and safe the .ini and try out if it works.
