No servers - Fresh Install

[fscii]

Hi I just downloaded and installed AC 1.1.0.4 today. I can do everything EXCEPT find any of the servers that should show up in the game list.

I scoured the wiki/docs and this forum and have done the following...

1. ping masterserver.cubers.net -- 150ms avg
2. ping assault.cubers.net -- 150ms avg
3. made sure port 28760 is not blocked
(to further guarantee #3 is clean, firewall disabled and router put in DMZ to my static ip)
4. to verify my isp doesn't block that port, I also tried via VPN which doesn't block any port [except for SMTP]

I go in game and pull up the multiplayer menu then to list servers. I do NOT get any error saying the server can't be reached. I watch the bar until its complete then nothing. I tried the F5 refresh. Still no servers show up. I use the Force Server Listing option - still no servers.

I'm running Windows 7 64-bit. I'm at a total loss - and have done quite a bit of reading/testing to no avail. Please help :(

Are you sure it is version 1.1.0.4 and not 1.0.4, type /version ingame. It sounds like you have version 1.0.4. Download the latest from here

There was a time yesterday when I couldn't get the serverlist either. Try again now.

it says "version = 1104"

Now when I alt-tab out of the program to the assaultcube dos window I see

"master server is not replying" which naturally would make me think its a port issue but again, look above at all I have done for ports... even dmz mode on router and going vpn (no port blocked except SMTP) I'm totally stumped.

my servers.cfg file only says ""

If you don't have an irc client try http://assault.cubers.net/irc.html

Also try http://cubelister.sourceforge.net/, then follow the instructions on how to add the new masterserver.

Just want to let people know that after all this and spending time with Gibstick in IRC, turned out a re-install fixed it. Must've had a corrupted file when I installed. Thanks for the help everyone especially Gibstick.
