vb6 is actually a very powerfull language if you know how to code with it, my older brother made a full 3D game that ran very smooth with it, but thats kind of off topic
anyway I'm adding support for compression soon
one of my dev team members is writing some code (not sure what language yet) that will be implemented to unzip/unrar/untar
my older brother is also working on a method to check the md5 sum of all the fils that require patching so they don't have to be redownloaded

nope you dont have to use titanium
I'm also working on a addon for this launcher so you don't have to edit the ini you will just drag all the files you need patched into a window or select a folder whichever takes less time for me to code
Re: vb6 patcher UPDATE 2.4
If you keep updating this and if you change the design & functions, it will be a good patcher I believe.

Oke, can you tell me when you crack md5? LOL
And, wait... all the files have to be re-downloaded every time? Why are you even releasing this? There is no benefit from this to the community whatsoever. You're not releasing the source which doesn't let anyone learn from your code(not that they would LOL), and the patcher is useless and highly inefficient. I mean, I appreciate the effort, but at least finish it before releasing 845792469 versions...

The md5 is almost done, then comes zip/tar/rar not sure which yet
and yes i will release the source once the major upgrades to the patcher have been completed
and i estimate the final release to be 2.6 ish
and i don't appreciate you saying it is no help to the community, first off its a work in progress, and second off at least I'm trying to help the community, i don't want to be nothing but a leechr so I'm trying to put my coding skills to use and let the community benifit, by the way I'm only 18 so i feel that I'm doing the best i can
Re: vb6 patcher UPDATE 2.4
Its a nice piece of work :D.. Considering its made by a single guy its quite good. Maybe with some more updates it will look nicer with new buttons and banners etc, apart from that its pretty decent, I know for a fact I couldn't do it xD

done with md5 btw :ott1: lol
Re: vb6 patcher UPDATE 2.5 (Now with md5 checking)
take away the noob server name or don't release anything, idiot.

Yea I'm totally an idiot, no offence but READ before you post
you can change the server name in the settings :ott1:
and its not a noob server, it use to have over 700 players :ott1:
and i'm pretty sure if i coded it i can put whatever i want into it'
Re: vb6 patcher UPDATE 2.5 (Now with md5 checking)
Advertisements off section is condoned by the rules, so start abiding to them and stop being a douchebag that thinks that knows everything.
Drop the attitude. We don't need more idiots like you here.

No offense, but you just spelled offense wrong. You used to have over 700 players... I find this pretty hard to believe since I've never even heard of your server. Anyway, I coded a full patcher over the past hour out of boredom and I don't see any reason for you to release an unfinished product 42884297 times. I coded a patchcreator for it as well. Here's my list format(XML)
Code:
private void CreateQueue()
{
XmlTextReader reader = new XmlTextReader(BASE_URI + LIST_FILE);
XmlDocument xd = new XmlDocument();
xd.Load(reader);
XmlNodeList fileNames = xd.GetElementsByTagName("file");
XmlNodeList fileHashes = xd.GetElementsByTagName("hash");
for (int i = 0; i < fileNames.Count; i++)
{
if (!CheckFileHash(fileNames[i].InnerText, fileHashes[i].InnerText))
{
downQueue.Enqueue(fileNames[i].InnerText);
}
}
}
I also recommend you make this a single-instance application and detect if Neuz is running at startup:
Code:
static void Main()
{
bool firstInstance;
instanceMutex = new Mutex(true, "{C59C106B-ACBC-42e1-B0F6-8020600C6EFC}", out firstInstance);
if (!firstInstance)
{
MessageBox.Show("An instance of the patcher is already running\nExiting.");
return;
}
Process[] arr = Process.GetProcessesByName("Neuz");
if (arr.Length != 0)
{
MessageBox.Show("An instance of Flyff is currently running.\nPlease turn flyff off and re-run the patcher.");
return;
}
Application.EnableVisualStyles();
Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
Application.Run(new MainWindow());
}
Btw, you said you're 18... I turned 18 this Friday.
Re: vb6 patcher UPDATE 2.5 (Now with md5 checking)
God damn it, take off the fucking advertisement, nobody gives a shit about what server you work for. Do you even read the fucking rules?

that's actually a pretty good bit of code there
i may take your suggestion on the one instance thing, didn't even think of that :thumbup1:
and yea i was on my openpandora at the time and typing is a bit awkward on that thing
and i released it because some people may not know how to program at all and i figured i would use at least my small knowledge from my computer programming class and books and at least try to make a patcher, I'm not claiming its the best one out there, its just an alternative
and yes no one would have herd of my server, it was private, i go to a tech school and basically all the kids wanted to play
and yea by 18, i meant almost 18, i turn 18 in may

its already been explained you can change the server name in the settings, the screen cap is just the default

So what? Default can be Flyforfun. Reported.

ok, well i'm just trying to share something with the community.
I'll edit the default, just for you :w00t
EDIT
fixed - default server name changed to FlyForFun
