Kquery 4.0: Getting Started Kquery 4 FAQ - Getting started guide Kquery 4 is the latest server browser by K*software. After starting up (and clicking OK through various pre-setup screens), you should be presented with the main interface. There are 3 main areas to this interface, shown below : Section 1 holds information about the currently selected server Section 2 is the main toolbar that you'll use Section 3 is where the servers are listed in 3 categories Lets start by creating a new server list. Click on the main toolbar and select "List & Filter Options" -> "server lists" -> "Add a new storage list" Type in a name for the list. Tip: Use short descriptive names, such as 'game2xs UK' or 'CounterStrike 1.5' Now we have a blank fresh list to use. Lets add some servers to it. From the main toolbar, select 'Get Servers', then goto 'Return to Castle Wolfenstein' and select the latest version. Notice how you can choose to play older versions of some games - handy if you don't have the latest patches! The main serverlist should start filling up with servers like the following screenshot shows. By default, all servers go to the 'filtered' category becuase we haven't setup any active filters yet (but more about that later). Click on the [+] next to the 'filtered' category. Shown are the current servers kquery knows about, along with their status. Notice how empty servers are 'greyed' out and occupied servers aren't. This is to aid readability. Here are some more example outputs : The 'not queried' folder : Shown here are server addresses kquery knows, but has not been able to retrieve more information about. This could be to many factors, such as internet traffic, server crashes, version mismatches and so on. Clicking on a server in the list brings up more information about that server on the left hand panel : Tip: Double clicking a server in the list will force a refresh of that server's details. One thing to make things slightly easier are the colour coded player slot status indicators : = occupied = available = reserved for admins. This helps you to see with a quick glance whether a server is busy or not. Further features : To refresh your serverlist, click the refresh list button. To refresh just the selected server, click the refresh button on the server toolbar To join the server, click the join button on the server toolbar or right click on a server from the list and select join from the menu To prevent changes to your list, you can 'lock' it by selecting lock lists from the list/filter menu. The padlock symbol appears to indicate that all the lists are locked. Support : Please see the Kquery Technical Support Forums.
