Dear community,

as some of you may have already experienced, the ET Master Server is down.
This is because ID Software has had experienced and is still experiencing power outages that are caused by extreme winter weather in Texas, USA.

In order to continue browsing servers, you can use our fallback / backup master server called etmaster.net.

You can find the necessary instructions on the website, whether you are a server admin or player yourself.
As a server admin, please add master0.etmaster.net to your list of master servers.
As a client, you have several options to use our service. One being downloading the fixed ET client executable that adds our master server to the list that will be queried upon request.

You can find all information on: http://etmaster.net/ (http://etmaster.net)

This is the recommended fallback until ID Software is able to reboot their servers.

Feel free to comment any questions or feedback!

Hey there,

the etmaster solution from TrackBase dates back to 2012 when the ID Software master server went down for the first time.

Looks like the server browser has been hacked and is asking clients to redirect, this is to our ETL server, I can assure everyone that this is not being done by anyone associated with us, I am very outspoken regarding the use of fake servers never mind such actions as the server browser hack!

Or download and use ET:Legacy, its uses its own server browser which removes all the fake servers, all our members join direct from their start line to include the private slot password, the majority of players join via the ETLegacy server browser or via DNS.

I never said you where, just it was redirecting there, only for about 15 mins though.
