update: 08/12/2004, New version released, PenguinPlug v0.3
Tones of bugs have been fixed since 0.2 and it now works with windows 95/98/Me too.
Users of the test version "0.2.9" wont notice a big difference, but at least it gave me some time to test it. I cant make any promise of "bugfree" but it since the 0.2 it has been tested by 1000 people, it is now less "experimental" than before.
Dont forget to read the changelog and FAQ before asking questions http://ste.gnux.info/pp
---------------------------------------------- old news: Since the last 3 weeks i spent a lot of time programming and here is the result... I wrote a pluggin for SC, the main features are : - Replay with text (save the chat durring the game in the replay, and show it when you watch it) - Anti-hack system (disturb a particular maphack and protect against freeze-hack)
It has not been completely tested and might not work especialy on windows 9x/me series. It is still beta and might contain bugs, if you find some, please repport them i will try to fix them. However it has recieved some positive feedback on scd (StarCraftDream PenguinPlug annoucement) so i guess it might help some people here too.
Read the readme to know more, and read it before you ask any question.

have fun

Yes it sounds logical. does litestep works with other programs that use icons in the system tray ? But like you said it's a small bug, the icon dont do anything except showing the program is loaded in this version, you are not missing anything. |

I realy meant "nobody"... if you run penguinplug and theres no message or clues about someone hacking, it doesnt mean that your opponent are not hacking, it just mean that they dont use the maphack that penguinplug detect. However, if when sending the detection message the enemy maphack is disturbed and he start unallying himself, then it's a 100% sure proof of hacking.
So it can prove that someone is hacking but it cant prove that someone is not hacking. clear ?

Awesome for French hotkeys ! thanks a lot !
edit : next step would be to include it in anti-hacking programs like bwscanner or pgtour/ngi launchers so we can have the benefits of the program while still within a hack free environment. I suppose it would be detected right now (didn't check)Last edit: 2004-11-29 12:37:20 |

Ok, my thoughts: this is indeed great for all azerty owners. I'm still having troubles when typing a message in-game, 'cause I always lock caps thinking I'm still unlocking them and so on...
So I've tried it, and encountered a few problems: when playing protoss, the 6-7-8th or so hotkeys just won't work. You just ctrl+key and when you hit it, nothing happens. Frustrating. When playing zerg, the 6th won't work too. Since I'm not a terran player, I don't really know for those. It might be my own computer, but I don't think so. So you may want to check a bit. Otherwise, I had one opponent who just wrote "??" at a time a message by your program popped up, so I was wondering whether he can see it or not.
Thanx a lot. |

thanx for telling me... since my starcraft skill where not high enough to use all of those hotkey i only did a limited testing on the first ones and thought it would work because i process them all in the same way. however 6 and 8 are not working, i guess it's something particular with the underscores. at least a serious tester is here 
Otherwise, I had one opponent who just wrote "??" at a time a message by your program popped up, so I was wondering whether he can see it or not.
he will see a blank line with "your-aka: " but the message "anti-hack check" is displayed on your computer only. i think found a way to remove it for the next version but it will cause an other drawback : it will clean all the messages on the screen, so it's very noticeable he is talking at the same time. let me know if you like realy the empty line better, if not i will code the screen clearing method, and if i'm in good mood i will put an option to choose which one you want.
