[Release] PT Protector v1.1b

[DarkKnightH20]

Hey guys, this program is pretty old now. A lot of the methods used to detect hackers in it no longer work since false positives have increased significantly. Use with caution, as you may very well start banning users who are NOT hacking. - DarkKnightH20

Hey Guys. I'm finally going to release PT Protector v1.0. It's been beta tested already by two people and their suggestions have gone into this version.

This program is now an Open Beta. As far as I'm aware, all errors are non-existant. However, since it is Open Beta, I'm looking for as much feedback as possible, as well as any bugs that might exist for you guys. Here's a copy of the read me, as well as a *few* screenshots--

PT Protector - v1.0
Author: DarkKnightH20 / DarkKnight
Website: DarkKnightH20 Dot Com

This program was created by DarkKnightH20 (aka DarkKnight) to help enforce anti-hacking on private PristonTale servers.

So...What does this program do exactly? Well, it reads the server errors logs for errors commonly associated with hacking. Currently, this program exercises the energy bar error, as well as the defense/attack error. However, it also keeps in mine that other errors could popup more frequently in the future due to new methods/forms of hacking. Users can add these errors to what I labeled the "Error Library".

To use PT Protector, you must first configure it via the configuration toolbar button. You must set an interval that provides the bases of when PT Protector will check the error logs. It can be every 10-60 seconds. After it reads a log, it copies all the data over to a new file within the log folder (this allows the application to scan for hacking-induced errors more quickly). After providing the interval, you must also specify your SQL login information. This allows the program to connect to your SQL database so that it can ban the user that's hacking.

Also, this program conveniently has an "Exceptions" list as well. It will NOT ban any Username/IP in the exceptions list.

*TO ENABLE PROGRAM GOTO Configuration and check "Enable Program"

*ALSO, if an error is disabled in the error library, it's because you must either edit it or it's not a 100% hacking possibility.



Thanks To--

BurningFinger -- for the entire idea of making this program.
QuantumFusion -- for all his hardwork in the PT scene.
Sandurr -- for all his hardwork in the PT scene as well. Has a great server.
Shaqpub -- for his many contributions.
Sonnb -- for all the program releases.
Thiel -- for posting an example log.
Ryder -- helped with his set of tools, ideas, and repacks.
Telatoro -- he's done a lottttt.

And a BIG Thanks To--

Luistorres! He provided most of the errors that are currently in the error library and did a lot of testing for me. This program would have been much more bare without his help. Check out EvoPT-- Evolution Priston Tale - EVOGAMES

Dark AvaThar! He participated in the beta testing of the program, as well as suggested the feature of allowing users to scan previous log files. He also suggeted that Exceptions Lists be created. Check out DPT-- dPristontale

[shabeb]

umm there is one problem
how do u unbann people??? cause i banned myself lol

dont know how to unbann them

Your THE PRO!!! Programmer u are professional

[swezid]

Well, try to make a new account, maybe lol. and you could try to delete the logs lol? well im not sure if you should do anything with the program. I havent found anything yet in the program where you could unban ppls lol xD

[DarkKnightH20]

You should add yourself to the "exceptions list" in either IP format or in username format.

But, to unban yourself, load Microsoft SQL Server Management Express Studio. Login.

Go to AccountDB, then list the tables. Now select *GameUser (replace "*" with the first letter of the account that was banned) and select "open table".

Look for your UserID. Once you locate it, scroll right until you see the column for "BlockChk". To unban yourself, set the value as 0. Alternatively, to ban you of course input a 1.

DarkKnight Thank You So Much
Seriously you ar ethe only person i trust with programs u are a machine lol serioulsy

[shabeb]

now dark knight i have to ask you one more thing
if i have a Absorption( 152 ) Attack Damage( 552 ) Defence( 3729 )
what should i put everything on???
should i put the attack on 1000
defence on 5000 or 6000??
cause i have made lots of items that are good in the game

oh and by the way how do you use the SOD 123 cause its very weird for me dont understand some of the stuff lol

[swezid]

Well about the SoD 123 should the SoD work lol, then do you need to get the clan system to work before you using the SoD 123. That means if you aint got the clan system working cant you; delete any characte, you have to do it manuelly via your serverfiles. Youu cant get into SoD cause there will be an error. You cant make any clan.
Thats the things you cant to. The rest could darkknight20 tell you how to do I hope.

[DarkKnightH20]

Once you have SoD working for your server, you can start using 123 SoD!

Normally, SoD only happens during a certain timeframe every day. I don't remember the exact time(s) off the top of my head, but it was something like 3:00-9:00PM. PristonTale servers check the window's clock in order to figure out if SoD is over. All you have to do for 123 SoD is hit "enable". The two intervals I supplied should be sufficient already :)

As for the "Absorption( 152 ) Attack Damage( 552 ) Defence( 3729 )" -- I'd actually recommend not enabling this option until you're positive that you have people increasing their attack, abs, and defense. The reason I say this is because it's a tough error to work with. Sometimes it can give a false positive, which is why I actually left that one off, as well as the weight error. Another reason I left it off is because it depends on the server's items. If items are overpowered, an error will show up in the log so it would be best to keep that one off :)

[shabeb]

ok
SOD works but my clan system doesnt i dont know how that works but yer lol
dark could please PM me msn cause i want to get this clan system working but just dont know how to i got up to error 9 but i use a dumb program which was only a trial but now im using IIS

thanks dark and swezid
