This is here due to a lack of Quake 3 or Misc Games forum...

Alrighty, I've had quite a bit of experience hosting dedicated LAN servers in the past, which has been fine. My problem now is I am attempting to run 16 servers from a single machine. The machine is more than capable and opens all the servers fine, however, when I go into Q3, I can only see 4 of them.

I should note that I am using the CPMA mod, but I'm guessing the same thing would happen if I attempted to host VQ3 servers.

I did a bit more playing around and narrowed it down to my Q3 only being able to see my dedicated servers if the port is set to 27960, 27961, 27962 or 27963. If it's anything other than those four ports, I can still manually connect to it via /connect 192.168.1.102:27964, etc and works fine; I am just unable to SEE the servers in the server list. Quake 3 automatically sets port numbers as you start servers and even leaving it on auto, it only detects the first four I set up, yet if I manually connect, they work perfectly.

Anyone have any thoughts as to why I am only able to see servers if they have those specific ports when I am still able to manually connect to them all regardless of the port?

Cheers in advance ^^.

Oh and please don't tell me to just manually connect... I'm hosting a public LAN a few times per year and would really prefer if people can just see the servers rather than having to manually connect :\
