Thanks for the Windows 98 compatible version. :O
Seems to work okay, except it still opens this DOS window. (I don't know for sure but I don't think it's supposed to do this, isn't it supposed to only show the penguin tray icon?)
Now I wanna catch me some hackers, damnit. :D |

theres difference between a "dos" and "command line". You can develop win32 programs that use command lines to display message, and it's often very conveniant to program this way. But its true that i should clean all the remaining message system, it's no longger necessary to have them because critical errors have been changed to messagebox.
But in this version the dos box with the 2 lines "loading superpenguin.spl" is totaly normal, on windows xp with a fast computer it close itself automaticaly rather fast so it shouldnt be a big annoyance.

superpenguin - I've tried your new version, and am definitely having trouble for the unshifted-keyboard feature. Where do we exactly have to type \unshifted on, and/or how to open/modify your dot spl file it it's where it has to be changed?

| Unless I'm missing something unshifted hotkey doesn't work anymore with the 0.2.9. I haven't tried all hotkeys but 12349 weren't working for me (they were with the previous version). |

unshifted hotkey is an option disabled by default because i got some reports from querty keyboard users that it was causing problems with this layout and shift keys to group units.
To enable it, just type "\\unshift on" (note the "\\" character, which is the opposite to typical bnet command that start with "/". it will be saved in the config file, no need to do it for every game.
And dont forget to have a look at the updated readme.txt of the new download directory, it has a changelog and a command list.

Yeah it's okay, I just didn't know whether it was normal or not so I figured I'd let you know.
On my windows 98 comp, it doesn't close automatically though and when I close it by myself, it shuts down my BW too. :O Just thought that was a bit weird. :D
Excellent program, though. Thanks a lot. |

Ok thanks penguin, works great. I had read the readme the first time but this time I just took a glance at it and I missed your explanation, sorry about that. However it states that we should type "\unshifted on" in the readme, which doesn't work. "\unshift on" works great and now all hotkeys are fully functional. Thanks a million. |

Thanx for noticing that... bugs in the readme are soo much easyer to fix than bug in the source code  |

I played a game yesterday against a guy with nickname X_xa. I knew he is a hacker, coz we`ve played before and his units atacked each other. So, when i saw him in join channel i reentered with another name and joined to his game. I just wanted to see if he uses same hack again. As i expected he did used it again. But, if in the first our game he just left it when understood smth is going wrong, in our second game he's dropped and i've got a lose. My point is: if superpenguin could do somewthing to prevent this drophack it would be just GREATE!!! |

Unfortunately that's impossible. Countering the "crash" hack that allow the cheater to freeze your computer was not hard. but starcraft, like any network game just drop a player if theres anything that goes a little wrong about the game data that is shared bewteen the 2 players. Asking for an anti-drop is like asking for an "anti-pull-the-plug".
However when someone drop, the result will either be "disc-draw" (or "disc-disc" if they are using a synchronization problem), i suggest to avoid playing someone if their disc ratio is more than 15% or higher than their lose %. It's not a perfect solution but no solution can exsists.
Peatza: read the readme please

Yes, but i've got a lose after he dropped. Maybe it depends somehow on who will click on "drop player" first? I realy don't know. Anyway, thnx for explanation man!

This program is awesome but here are some ideas I have... I don't know how hard it would be to code these or even if some are possible.
When a person tries to crash hack you, send the crash hack back at him. Send a message, at least to yourself when someone is detected hacking. When someone is detected hacking send a message with his name and possibly the cd key and date to a website where everyone can view the hackers. Name spoof detecting. Option to turn off some or all of replay text. Maybe get rid of the PenguinPlug line at the beginning and 4 minute mark, gets kind of annoying Option to check apm after game.
Also I was wondering it seemed like the person who made this maphack put this exploit in it and its not a bug in the game. Why would he do this and how did you know? Thx again and thx for the source, mainly low language older c which I don't know well though, probly won't be much help but i'll look more into it after finals. |
