I have MasterServer and ConnTester (Xcode versions) running locally. I downloaded and built both. Both are running from folders in the project’s folder structure.
I run MasterServer, it starts up with:

/Users/NeoRiley/Documents/Infrared5/Servers/MasterServer ; exit;
john-grdens-computer:~ NeoRiley$ /Users/NeoRiley/Documents/Infrared5/Servers/MasterServer ; exit;
12-08-2010 13:13:30 Unity master server BETA version 0.1.0
12-08-2010 13:13:30 Master server port set to 12345
12-08-2010 13:13:30 Facilitator port set to 50000
Looks good so far.
Then I start ConnTester and get:

john-grdens-computer:~ NeoRiley$ /Users/NeoRiley/Documents/Infrared5/Servers/ConnTester ; exit;
12-08-2010 14:49:11 Connection Tester port set to 10735
12-08-2010 14:49:12 Connected to 10.1.10.52:50000
… and then MasterServer see’s the connTester connection and adds this to the output:
12-08-2010 13:13:35 Facilitator: New connection established to 10.1.10.52:10735
So, I know they’re running, I know they’re running on my internal network of 10.1.10.52 (from what I can see in the output.
But when I try to connect to either of them from Unity IDE, it fails.
apparently, the version of MasterServer and ConnTester do not work with Unity3 beta. They posted another link for the source that DOES work, but I have to see if I can publish that link.
Don’t know if they will post that until the U3 goes live, the new networking seems to be in flux and until it is set as ‘gold’ it is not worth the hastle to post a link to it. Too much can change between builds. I think it is only available to closed beta testers. Not that it would be too teribly hard to make a new master / tester yourself since they already posted which version of Raknet they are using.
Just do a search for “Master Server” in the archives for the beta list and you’ll see it in there. I don’t want to post it here without their permission, and if you’re on the beta, you can find it in the archives
Well you are definately correct, the public beta of U3 has no way to use the masterserver at this time. Not without what ever is in the closed beta, I’ve been using Photon with U3 so I never bothered to check if that was working or not, thank goodness that I am not using the masterserver with my game and using Photon instead otherwise I would be hosed until the final release.
He is talking about the closed beta archive, nothing to search on the forums for the master server code, as far as I know, the new master server code is not released to the general public yet. You could email support and ask if they will let you download it. Not sure what they would say. I am just agreeing that what is downloadable now without that link doesn’t work with U3.
there’s a home page for the beta email list - some of the emails have a link at the bottom that’ll take you right to it. when you get there, just search for “MasterServer” and i’m sure you’ll find my emails
