[Help] how can i be admin in my server?

[great48]

Here kashi, use these server files, they work pretty well.
http://forum.ragezone.com/f399/ultim...s-beta-600689/

Use the same server side hotuk that is in the server. Just edit your ip and admin information.

and for your client hotuk, try this one, it works great for me.

That's why it's pretty good for many clients... there are also another 2 that are commented out

Try removing the hash (pound "#") symbols from the start of those lines if this hotuk alone doesn't do the trick.

There are also two window mode command for different clients

It's a pretty nice hotuk.ini... but there is no stopping client releasers from changing the commands to something totally unique, and the best way to find out what works with your client, IMHO is to trace it's reading of the hotuk file in a debugger...

Sadly this is not to everybodies tastes when they want to play a game, and it would be nice if releasers documented the proper use of their clients, but we usually assume that they are going to be used by server admins for research, and that they will already know how to debug the code in it.

[great48]

There is no reason to sigh bob, im simply giving a hotuk that works for me, if it works it works, if not, oh well, same place where we started ^^

[bobsobol]

Absolutely right, and it's quite a nice client hotuk for the reasons I quote in my last post... I just wish people would post in a readable form, or make an attachment.

It's so easy for non-European text files to become corrupted when posting them in European character sets, quite aside from the fact that you can't pass them through a translator, and if you do know Korean, you can't read them like that.

It is a good Hotuk.ini, and I thank you for sharing all the same.

[kashi]

Thank you all, I couldnt read ur posts until now cause We had Yom Kippur(A jewish day that we can't use electricity...)SO I'll try the hotuk's and the server files and Update here..thnx!

what client do you use to log in as an admin? it doesnt work for me...
and did you write both IP and ID for the admin? cause bob said it's confusing the server...

[great48]

I used the client that comes with UltimatePT beta release, it should be in the rar file. And i only used my account in the admin information section. example debug_id great48, didnt use debug_ip

[kashi]

@great48
the client dowsn't work. he sais always UNABLE TO CONNECT!...

[great48]

Is it a immediate unable to connect? If so, try this. Open the client with Hex Editor, or olly, you decide. Change the ip at the bottom to 127.0.0.1
After you have done this, open up your registry file, or you can download the file i included, and make sure its like this. Double click this reg file, press yes then ok. Try your PT once more. Hope this works!

PS: This solved my problem with unable to connect, i couldnt connect til i did this, also, my friend did the registry and it started working for him, when he used to get unable to connect.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

As you are (where) celebrating Yom Kippur, it may be worth my pointing out how great48s' hotuk appears on a Hebrew system in notepad.

This causes so many issues... it's very similar, but similar doesn't cut it with an "is equal to" check in a program.

This is why I "*sigh*" and why I try to use the native language of the program to represent its' data files... Korean. This will still give problems if you save as a UTF text file in notepad, because PT doesn't read UTF, it only read EUC-KR. Again, I say, Notepad Sux!

[kashi]

So you are saying i Should install korean in my PC(which I already did) and save it with something else than notepad? so what program should I use?

---------- Post added at 11:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:33 PM ----------

I cant believe it...I downloaded here the PTServerToolsSuperPack from the realeses and took the Hotuk.ini from there and...BAM!!! I have admin..LOL

is the order matters??????

[bobsobol]

Nope... it's the fact that you used a binary file (no character translation).

---EDIT---
Oh, BTW, Installing Korean support only makes things worse. It's built in since XP SP2... the updates are designed for Win9x, they only half work on 2K + and they can break the OS own internationalisation.

[kashi]

Nope... it's the fact that you used a binary file (no character translation).

And no one thought about try it earlier....?

Anyway a huge THANKS for all the help and the support!

[bobsobol]

Well... you can just use someone elses file, when shared as a file, not some text. But understanding what is in the file is important too, and that's when you have to watch what local your editor is in.

Aside from anything else, the Hotuk.ini I can read best, is the one in Korean... And I don't even speak Korean.

Most clients, and servers are distributed with an Admin Hotuk.ini to work with them as well... so, it's usually posted for you to edit your existing file... but this character shizzle is giving everyone grief. I just don't know how better I can explain.

[tobblish]

Okey i have pretty much the same problem here i have read all of the posts in this thread to try fix mine but it still dosn't work. You were saying you downloaded some superpackage and took the Client hotuk from there, maybe you can post a link to it and let me try cause i can't find it and copy paste that wouldn't help sence i read that the notepad couldn't save that in an spacifik format and that the client only read another. well any help would be great. here is my client and server Hotuk

And i am using the korean pristontale with the fusion repack but the XPT server exe cause it dosn't crash as the fusion one.

[bobsobol]

Well... if you had read what you say you have, you would know not to use "Admin" for both *ADMIN_NAME & *ADMIN_LOGIN, and not to use *DEBUD_ID AND *DEBUG_IP lines in your server hotuk.ini... that was discussed earlier on in this thread.

The comment about "\;Admin Hello3" is actually "\:Admin Hello3"... I guess that's a typo.

As Kashi says, a Zip file may well be the best way around different localisations of the Windows OS. Please try the attached client Hotuk, based on a blend of one I use and the one great48 posted, character to byte translation correct with a bucket load of comments on the Korean commands.

Most clients support more than these, but these are in many of them. "Observer mode" is about the most fun... it changes the interface for play to a 1st person mode, and disables clipping... like playing Doom 1 with the IDNOCLIP cheat on, it's great as a GM hidden to track players without them knowing, and for capping flybys.

[tobblish]

Thank you very much now it works perfektly, by the way i have like 10 diffrent hotuk files in diffrent folders with ip on and off. But sence i didn't post that you couldn't possibly know. =) By the way is it possible to get a client in English instead of korean? thank you.

[bobsobol]

Yes... most (but not all) of the clients posted here are translated to English. As Kashi found, if you take the images from the Korean client, most of the images which have embedded text remain Korean however.

We worked through that part over IRC, so I'm happy to share a summery here.

1. Get the ePT client (currently from Suba), and install it.
2. Copy EVERYTHING in it's install folder to a new folder on your desktop.
3. Browse that folder with Vista Explorer.
4. Enter the search term "-ext:tga -ext:bmp -ext:sin -type:folder"
5. When it says it's found 5000 items and isn't going to display more than that, right click that yellow bar at the top and select "Show all results" or equivalent.
6. Wait for search to complete.
7. Select all items. <Ctrl> + A may be easiest the right click menu will have to assess the context menu extensions which apply to every single one of those files, it will take a long time.
8. Hit the delete key, wait, and confirm the "Are you sure?" dialogue. Yea, this will take time too, even before it say "Preparing to delete..", and yes, you can drag them all to the bin too, but again I don't recommend the Right Click -> Delete option.
9. Hit <Backspace> or the Back arrow in Vistas explorer window and select everything, again and copy it. (<Ctrl>+A, <Ctrl>+C)
10. Browse to the client for your install, and Paste (<Ctrl>+V)
11. Confirm any UAC warnings, and overwrite warnings.

If you are still running Windows 2000 or Windows XP, you may be able to use the advanced search facilities of the separate Windows Search 4.0 download... or you can use the power of the command line.

I usually

$p>Attrib -H -S -R * /S
$p>Attrib +R *.BMP /S
$p>Attrib +R *.TGA /S
$p>Attrib +R *.SIN /S
$p>Del -R /S /Q
$p>Attrib -R * /S

OMG! Did I find a useful "feature" in Vista? Yes Vista haters, it has lots of them... not as many, or a powerful as Longhorn betas I'll grant, but it is MUCH better than XP in many ways.

[tobblish]

This will give me access to the newest items and so on also? well i give it a try thanks mate

---------- Post added at 10:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:16 AM ----------

When i try to delete it it comes up a few files that says that they can't be puted in the trashcan, Do you want to remove them permanently

[bobsobol]

Not if your server doesn't support them, no. Why would you think that?

When i try to delete it it comes up a few files that says that they can't be puted in the trashcan, Do you want to remove them permanently

What is "it" and "they"?

This is a standard Windows error message which means you do not have enough space left on your hard disk, or that the percentage of remaining free space on your drive allocated for the Recycle Bin is less than the size of the file you are trying to delete. Which ever way makes more sense to you.

I've not seen it since Win95 on any of my machines, or most of the ones I admin in a work capacity. Delete, to me, means DELETE, not store in a folder pending deletion after an indeterminate date or drive space allocation boundary. On Domain level hot seat network workstations the Recycle Bin is usually disabled for security reasons, AFAIC it's not worth getting used to relying on it.

So I set it to "Do not move files to the Recycle Bin, delete them immediately"

[tobblish]

Alright then i just delete all the files that comes up well i don't realy see where this is going, anyway the files i meant were some folders of tempscron, morion and so on. well after. and when i delete there are coming up messages to copy some files and when its done and hit back arrow, i just get to some empty folders

Nevermind i got it to work. but i still have a question some items does not exist but now it should exist in the client right? and where can i get a repack with all the items. thank you

[bobsobol]

Sorry guys, I've been busy elsewhere ATM, so I'm not as available as I normally am.

@tobblish
The items not supported by your client (game.exe) will not exist, regardless of if they are in the folders or not. To fix that, you need to re-write your game.exe, and your server.exe.

There are no repacks that contain all items. That would be too easy... you have to make them your self. If you didn't have to do that, there would be thousands of private PT servers up run by people who don't understand how they are made.

[tobblish]

Thanks bob. Well i managed to fix it myslef :)
