Host message (Modal Quit - aka can't connect any more)

Solution can be found in post #21


Don't forget, you have to use a tool like putty directly on the query port.

If you rent you server, please take a contact with your hoster.

i found a bug with the host message thats kind of servere. If you set the host message to Modal message and exit[MODALQUIT] on connecting to the server it gives you a message and you disconnect.or am i wrong and is this unpurpose?

no thats the purpose.
it says MODAL and QUIT connection. Think a little.

well closing someones ts3client while he can have opened multiple connections wouldnt be nice now will it??

imagine it like when vBulletin or other forums have a ability to turn them off. it will show them message and they can do nothing.

and you need to turn this off ?

you know how to use your server query with telnet or PuTTY ?


this will put it back to just MODAL

XXXXXXXX = your serveradmin password
x = server id (if your default server x = 1 )


login serveradmin XXXXXXXX
use sid=x
serveredit virtualserver_hostmessage_mode=2 virtualserver_hostmessage=Welcome sid=x

So what will we do if there's no server query login and password ?
I can't query my server via telnet and i can't use menu of teamspeak

If you rented the server, just use the web interface or ask your TS3 server provider.

Maybe not this doing well or not but after placing the serveredit
send me an error that says id = 1024 msg = invalid \ sserverID

What should I do? can you help me please

by pm's this worked for Macross

login serveradmin XXXXXXXX
use 1
serveredit virtualserver_hostmessage_mode = 2 virtualserver_hostmessage = Welcome

Would be nice to have an option to enable a popup when entering server... kinda like "the other program" has. Be a nice way to set a welcome message or important reminder etc etc...
