It means that after May 31, 2014 - GameSpy masterserver, which kept list of all online MoH servers has been shut down.
In-game browser stopped to work and players can't find new servers to play on anymore.
xNULL team and community decided to create a replacement for default masterserver and created custom Reborn MasterServer that supports MoH:AA/SH/BT and GameSpy protocol in order to save the game we all love so much.
Game Launcher¶
The easiest way to play MoH:AA/SH/BT games is to download and install MoH Reborn Game Launcher. This is an open-source software created by us, to make player's lives easier.
It will patch your game executables so that they will query Reborn MasterServer instead of original one to get list of all online servers and show them in the in-game server browser.

Game Launcher is not ready yet. You can help us develop it by contributing to: MoH Reborn Launcher
Game Browser Fixer¶
You can also patch your game executables with Game Browser Fixer, which you can find and read about HERE.
This solution works only for Windows users.
Alternative solutions¶
If you don't want to install and use Reborn Game Launcher (which we highly recommend), you can still make the in-game server browser work. This will however require a bit more technical knowledge.
Manual executables replacement¶
You can replace your game executables with the ones that are already patched. Simply download right bundle, unpack binaries and copy them to your game installation folder.
When asked whether you want to overwrite original files, click "Yes".
MAKE A BACKUP OF YOU ORIGINAL FILES BEFORE INSTALLING THE PATCHED ONES
We provide patched binaries for both game clients and game servers. Game servers need to be patched in order to register in xNULL Masterserver and be visible to player in the in-game server browser.
- MoH:AA 1.11 (compatible with Reborn patch)
- MoH:SH 2.15
- MoH:SH Demo
- MoH:BT 2.30
- MoH:BT 2.40
- MoH:BT Demo
Hosts redirection¶
You can edit your hosts file on your computer. The file will have priority over your DNS server. We will override master.x-null.net to the xNULL master server.
Windows¶
Go to: %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\
Open file called hosts
in your favourite text editor (Notepad is enough)
Add the following line to the bottom of the file:
5.104.78.162 master.gamespy.com
Save the file and launch MOHAA, you should now see servers in the serverlist.
Linux, MacOS¶
Open the file: /etc/hosts
in your favourite text editor
Add the following line to the bottom of the file:
5.104.78.162 master.gamespy.com
Save the file and launch MOHAA, you should now see servers in the serverlist.
