TimeoutException on Querying master servers

[heisenbergman]

I just used the usage code from http://koraktor.de/steam-condenser/usage outright, and I'm getting a TimeoutException. Here's the code:

import java.net.InetSocketAddress;
import java.util.Random;
import java.util.Vector;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeoutException;
import com.github.koraktor.steamcondenser.exceptions.SteamCondenserException;
import com.github.koraktor.steamcondenser.steam.servers.GoldSrcServer;
import com.github.koraktor.steamcondenser.steam.servers.MasterServer;

public class SteamApp {

    public static void main(String args[]){
        try {
            Random randomizer = new Random();
            MasterServer master = new MasterServer(MasterServer.GOLDSRC_MASTER_SERVER);   
            Vector<InetSocketAddress> servers = master.getServers();
            InetSocketAddress randomServer = servers.elementAt(randomizer.nextInt(servers.size()));
            GoldSrcServer server = new GoldSrcServer(randomServer.getAddress(), randomServer.getPort());
        } catch (SteamCondenserException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (TimeoutException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

And here's the output from the console:

Any idea what might be the problem? Should the code as posted above work?

[koraktor]

It seems like the old master servers at hl1master.steampowered.com have been shut down. Currently I have no idea if they'll ever come back as Steam itself and the old GoldSrc games use a different protocol and other servers for this.

I'll let you know once I have more information.

Thanks for the reply!

Does this mean that Steam Condenser is of no use now that the servers are shut down? :(

EDIT: I guess what I'm asking is if there's other ways of using Steam Condenser with Java to get data from Steam other than through querying the servers :) Thanks!

[koraktor]

This problem only affects GoldSrc servers. You're still able to query them if you know the IP. Source servers can still be aquired from their master servers (SourceServer.getMaster()), too. Additionally there are lots of community features.

[heisenbergman]

^ Thanks! Will try to figure out how to do those :)

[koraktor]

Use the following until a fix arrives:

MasterServer master = new MasterServer("hl1master.steampowered.com:27011");
