Get players with PHP?

[xXMADEXx]

Hi guys. In PHP, is there a way to get the number of players and the server status, without any scripting on the server? Like how game-state.eu works. Thanks.

Edit: That's why you are in client, so how is possible getting players without server? Its not possible, you should have to make script.

You should be able to do that with GameQ: http://gameq.sourceforge.net

I've tried using GameQ, it didn't work when I used it, I'm pretty sure gameQ is outdated / depreciated.

That's how I wonder how game-state.eu did it... Is there a function of some sort in the MTA PHP SDK?

Yea, I tried it to, didn't work.

Okay, please try the newer GameQ fork then. You can download it by pressing the 'Download ZIP' button at the bottom of the right panel of this page:

Make sure that you use ASE port as the server port in your queries.

It works fine for me as you can see in an example query below:

http://www.jhxp.net/personal/abc/test-query.php (example query for the =PCP= Minigames server)

http://www.jhxp.net/personal/abc/test-query.txt (source code)

I was using the ASE port at the time, I will test the forked version too.

GameQ does work... im using it on my web: http://mshost.cz so your php script is wrong then. There is no need for any Lua scripting at all.

I tried the exact code you sent me:

http://revolution-scripts.com/files/pag ... ervers.php

but, it gives the error. I think it's the ASE port thing but I cannot be sure. Anyway to check it?

I'm with Xxmade, I get the same issue. Even the examples don't do it correctly, the examples all say that the server did not respond, I then added the mta server with the examples and still no result:

$servers = array( 
    array( 
        'id' => 'mtasa', 
        'type' => 'Mta', 
        'host' => '80.241.211.36:22123', 
    ) 
); 

-- original port was 22000, ase port = +123 == 22123.

I don't have any issues with PHP, it's quite easy.

Simple mode using the game-state.eu

<?php 
 //Script By:MaligNos 
  
$url = 'http://www.game-state.eu/94.23.251.227:22006/'; 
$site = file_get_contents($url); 
  
$name1 = explode('', $site); 
$name2 = explode('',$name1[1]); 
$name = $name2[0]; 
  
$data1 = explode('', $site); 
$data2 = explode('',$data1[1]); 
$data = $data2[0]; 
  
$cotacao1 = explode('', $site); 
$cotacao2 = explode('',$cotacao1[1]); 
$cotacao = $cotacao2[0]; 
  
  
print 'Server name: '.$name.' State: '.$data.' Players: '.$cotacao; 
  
?> 

Edit: I always wanted to know how it prints the status of the game in a picture, anyone have any idea about this?

I didn't want to use a remote server..

csmit195: I have just noticed that for some reason GameQ doesn't always retrieve the query data from the server correctly. Try refreshing the page a few times or increase the 'timeout' parameter.

Also, if you have an outdated server you might want to update it to the latest 1.3.4 build (R3 (build 5927) - Updated 14th October 2013 @ http://linux.multitheftauto.com/ or the latest version from the main page for windows servers).
