My original post:

One thing I miss about the old mcsg server (version 1) is that to join survival games, I had a list of about 100 survival games server ips in my multiplayer menu that I could click on to directly join that server. The ip's were us1.mcsg.in, us2.mcsg.in, us3.mcsg.in , etc. I really dislike not being able to do this anymore, as it improved my efficiency at playing survival games. If anyone knows what the new ips are or a way to find the direct ip of a server you are already connected to, their help would be very appreciated (the ips now only connect to the hub, not the survival games servers)

I didn't get any helpful answers, except that it was not possible, but I disagree. Using a process log application on my computer, I was able to acquire all ip's of external connections made by java on my computer. The problem is, there is so much information, it is difficult to glean from the information a usable server IP. I am not doing this for just mcsg, but I think for any minecraft server it SHOULD be possible, somehow, to determine the direct IP. I know this seems pointless, but if I want to join a particular game/minigame directly, especially if the hub or lobby server is down, this becomes extremely useful. Here is a link to the program http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645 , if anyone knows another way to do this or can find a way to filter the program to show only server IPs, or even knows where else to ask about this, please respond.!Thanks, any help in much appreciated.

Like the devs explained on your original post. It is not possible to direct connect because the server ips change after every game in V2.

The servers are dynamic ip's so it is impossible to direct connect

Have a nice day on the MCGamer network!

Yep everyone that's posted is correct. Our servers are dynamic now which means that they are constantly changing to fulfill the need for servers at the time. The more players we have, the more open servers we will have. That's why we don't have direct IP joining anymore - because servers are constantly being added and removed as our player count changes. :)

Seems like your concern has been addressed so I'm going to lock this thread now! Feel free to message me if you have any other questions. :) Have a great day!
