[Guide] Putting a little delay into your .bat files and stuff.

[Faithless]

Hello, I know this has been released before, but There might be just something I could add, I made my pc like when I start up my pc it automaticly turn on:

• Hamachi (my server requires Hamachi)

• Wamp server

• My Launcher

But since my server starts up a lot faster than that my wamp is done with loading I searched for a solution:
The delay for a batch file!

Here is the script:

@echo off
title OdinMS: inactive
color 1c
color 4c
title Waiting on the delay
dir c:\ /s > nul
title OdinMS: activating 0/3
start /b launch_world.bat
title OdinMS: activating 1/3
ping localhost -w 10000 >nul
start /b launch_login.bat >nul
title OdinMS: activating 2/3
ping localhost -w 10000 >nul
start /b launch_channel.bat >nul
title OdinMS: activating 3/3
ping localhost -w 10000 >nul
color 2a
title TrueStory is online!! 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How to instal?

• First open a notepad.

• Copy Paste the words

• Save as Launcher.bat or anything els that ends in .bat

• Place this file into your repack map where you login world and channel.bat files are.

• Double click the file and wait for your server to start (with delay)

99% Credits to AgentSmith (I though) Who made this.
1% Credit to me for the delay (please dont flame?)

Added how to start al programs when starting up the pc:
you go to C:\Documents and Settings\username\Menu Start\Programs\start-up (I'm not 100% sure these are the names for it because my pc is dutch), but anyway it should be something like this. Now you see some diffrent things already , if not so, paste in your wamp icon, Hamachi icon and the bat file and restart your pc to test it out.

If you want a longer delay then search for "dir c:\ /s > nul" and add more of them.

If this is a guide, shouldn't it be in the tutorial section?
o.O

[purpleNblack2]

Wrong section?
for a guide

[eennee]

Wrong section

[CarterFTWWW]

Can you all shut up about "wrong section" it was said 3times, and does not to be repeated again. He released the part of where you put it in a .bat file didn't he? So its just a release with a guide in it(Which every release should have.)

[purpleNblack2]

Lol,, i said it was a wrong section,,
if its a guide
but its a release/guide
so it cant be wrong section

[JusticeDK]

how did u make the wampserver start automatic?

[JasonRen]

Good job faithless. So you added a delay for starting up the server for the wamp server, correct? But don't you have to manually start wamp server? :\

[SaintsIan]

Lol, this is just plain obvious and i think people know how to do this. In addition, there is a reason most releases are the way they are, no point changing the delay xD its a tutorial btw. Nice work though...

[Faithless]

It's a release with a guide tag...

[eennee]

No clue what this is for woot :D

[Faithless]

[KidFlow]

We all know this. I think Moogras repack has it aswell.

[Faithless]

Ok sorry then...

[KidFlow]

No problems... What rank is your server on?

[Faithless]

xtreme it was 46 for 2 weeks , but since people didn't vote anymore it's now... 66 but it's not 24/7 (maybe be 24/7 for some days soon cuz I'm doing something for my dad and the reward will be some days 24/7 :P)

correct but...you phail. Anyways do
start <.batname>
ping localhost 6000 > nul
and that'll delay for 6 seconds or so.

Anyway, now people know how to let the server start up when windows start up (if they didn't already knew).

[XxOsirisxX]

to add at starup.. is easier IMO using regedit.

only search in regedit,HK_C_User>Software>Microsoft>Windows>CurrenctVersion>Run..

rigth click.. New String/Alphanumeric key (or something like that) and add w.e name you wants.
right click it and press modific/edit and put there the path and done.

[Faithless]

Not everybody knows that O.o

[ex4life6pro]

you can use "your uninstaller" (that's the name of the program) and add the wamp server and bat file in the startup section =P then you got it when windows start up
