Master Server Info

[Shocklink]

While I was surfing the BL forums I came across this post made by someone important...

I swear the master server said you had a Radeon Xpress 200m but I guess it's just a Xpress 200.  Regardless, it is an integrated graphics chip and it is stuff. 

So my question is if the master server is able to collect information about your video card, what else does it collect? Im not worried, im just curious thats all.

Woah thats the first I've heard of this. I thought it only logged your IP and perhaps your OS.

[Monocle]

I believe it is fully capable of logging all your specs.


Not sure.

Badspot's a stalker.

I wonder why he would want all this information? To tell people why they are having problems and such?

To tell people why they are having problems and such?

Probably. Since a lot of the Blockland community are kids who might not know how to find their own specs. It's probably just for convenience so Badspot doesn't have to spend hours trying to find out what graphics card someone uses.

And so that kids don't complain about finding out what graphics card they have being too hard.

He's been logging video card details for a while. I've seen him use the information a fair few times in the help section.

Ya but if he is able to log graphic card specs, what else does he log? That's the question I'm asking :P

I'm sure he logs most relevant computer specs. Perhaps processor, definitely OS, stuff like that.

I'd like to see the info he's getting from wine users.

Anything that any other game could log.
System specs and anything related to the game.

Pentium 3 is so old.

Blockland recognizes Core I7s as Pentium III.

And I think same with Core2Duo/Quad.
