GSIO his Master will stay, just in case this happens again...2. If you want to change the hosts file back, feel free to do so manually or use the automated tool for windows.3. If you host a server make sure you have BOTH Master Servers in your config file, as follows:set sv_master1 ef2master.activision.comset sv_master2 ef2master.gdev-rp.org

To retrieve the list of servers from the new Master you need to modify a system file.The changes to the file will make your computer use a different IP for the address of the Activision master-server, this is necessary since the game offers no option to change the master server.Please be aware that this method is also used to redirect users to fake-websites, so it is likely that your Virus-scanner or Security Software might give you a warning.How to change ef2master.activision.com to the new master server ?For this operation you will need to have administrative privileges!___Windows___1. Open the file named simply "hosts" in "C:/windows/system32/drivers/etc" (assuming you installed windows on drive "c").2. Make sure you use Notepad.exe or any else text editor to edit the hosts file, Wordpad or Word or Office will !!!N O T!!! work!3. Scroll down to the bottom line and add the following line:78.46.64.6 ef2master.activision.com4. Save the file and reboot your Operating System.___MAC OS-X 10.2+___1. Access the TERMINAL.2. Browse the directory using the command string:cd /private/etc3. Open the hosts file in the nano text editor:sudo nano hosts4. Scroll down to the bottom line and add the following line:78.46.64.6 ef2master.activision.com5. Press Control and X and save the file with administrative privileges.6. Reboot your Operating System.If you are running your own server add the following cvar in the server-config file, make sure the server loads the config file on start-up:set sv_master2 ef2master.gdev-rp.orgIf you host a server from inside the game menu you should type into the console (use the middle mouse button to paste text from the clipboard into the game console):seta sv_master2 ef2master.gdev-rp.orgThere will be no changes for the Authentication server, since we don't intend and are legally not allowed to validate your cd-key, which means you can still use a creative combination of letters and numbers to create your own custom cd-key. Happy Fragging! http://www.darkmatter-clan.com//news/index.php?action=show&id=190 Fri, 02 Apr 2010 21:54:48 +0200 [dM]P|Chriss Activision has officially ended the support for Elite Force II.
Activision the Publisher of Elite Force II was hosting the Master- and Authentication-Servers for the game. The Master-Server was providing the Server list for all Internet-Server.This events has two effects:1. New Servers will no longer be visible, and if you click on get list, your current server list will be overwritten and no servers will be displayed.2. The CD-Key saved in the registry (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREActivisionElite Force II) will no longer be checked when connecting to a server.For Effect NO.:1Don't worry, there is a temporary solution for the empty Server-List issue, download the work-around, follow the install instructions and you will see all the standards servers again.We are pretty sure there will be a community sponsored Master-Server soon.For Effect NO.:2The Authentication-Server does no longer check for a valid cd-key.The Authentication-Server was also preventing the game from working without a cd-key or installation after a Operating System re-installation or when being copied from one hard drive to another.

We recommend the Co-op Mod mini (5MB).The Map features a Klingon Underground-Base connected with a Federation-Outpost. The Federation-Outpost offers high interactivity, such as a working Holodeck offering 3 different Holo-Programs, a Restroom with Water which can be disabled in the basement, Replicators replicating weapons and health and more!File is available at:www.moddb.comwww.effiles.com

UPDATE - THE MASTER SERVER IS BACK ON-LINE AGAIN
We have learned that the Master Server of ef2 is currently down.Perhaps Activision is just making some changes on their servers again.How ever, the servers are still on-line, and you can still connect to them via IP. To make sure you have all the IPs here is a screenshot of the servers taken from Qtracker.
