centos have 2 version
1 - text mode
2 - Graphic mode

centos 4.7 by dordort is a text mode
text mode is lite then graphic mode

for me..i prefer to use graphic mode coz it easy to setup( its for me-other person i dont know)
the choice is in u`r hand.

[xell_llex1985]

I'm using 4.7 i thinks its graphics mode heheheh but i like it it easy by the way the features in centos 5.. is it the same as the latter version 4.7, i just want the ability to unpack and pack enc files can't do it with 4.7 hahahhahaha im using this centos4.7 and right now i am downloading centos5.8 dvd.iso....

can i ask in your server are u using centos 5.8??? I am having double thoughts on upgrading hahahah....

[fireblade3]

im using centos 5...i think its same coz i never use centos 4.8 in graphics..

[xell_llex1985]

hehehe COOL then try installing today heheheh i wanna try the latest enc files from cabal ph right now they are level 200 capped with the queen sienna episode

[kadion]

xell_llex , instead do that, why dont give a try to Balq java editor?
it does pack/unpack and all in your windows enviroment ( easy to use ).

ok now i finish upgrading to centos5 i'm having problems installing chumpy's server files grrrr... can u help me guys out this... i post screenies below don't know whats the reason why i got those errors but I assume it's from installing centos5...

btw: 1st screenie thats while im installing asking me if I where installing on centos 4.x I pressed y then enter.
the 2nd screennie it doesn't detect my wan IP its just like that for 30 min now....
3rd screenie tried not to auto detect wan but manually entered then start service... well thats the result after start service...

waiting for your kind replies ^_^

[kadion]

why do you answer Y to cent 4.x since you are using 5.x ?

[xell_llex1985]

i thought it had cent4.x legacy files so i answered yes BTW i tried both ways tried answering NO but it still had the same problem it said it cannot connect to the centos mirror.....

[kadion]

you probably have some network issue on Centos. double check it

[xell_llex1985]

ummmi don't know bout that cause if its a network issue I can't ping my IP from centos right but i can. same as ping centos ip from my winXP... I can ping that.. and about firewalls double checked that already all where closed even its SE linux firewall i even closed that one... hope sir chumpy can view this.... I really believe this is from his installer not supporting centos5....

[kadion]

I already installed Chumpy´s 2.81 repack into Centos 5.4 (i386) and all work like a charm, so the installer works well. please note if you try to use CentOS x86_64 version, some dependencies won't be updated by the installer ( you can update all manually as always )

[xell_llex1985]

tnx for the reply heheh solved it just this morning at 5am. i downloaded the x86 version hahaha silly me. now servers are working fine heheheh time to hunt some hackers hehheheh.. im having trouble with the CE speed hack i want to encrypt xtrap or gameguard on my cabalmain so that they cant use them can i use the original cabalmain with the enc files of chumpy's tdp2.81????

[chumpywumpy]

The cabalmain that comes with the server files is completely unprotected. It isn't possible to add xtrap into an exe you have to use one that already has it (there are a few posted in the releases section) and then pack it with something like themida to stop people unpacking it. Gameguard will not work for us at all.

Changing the enc file compression method is a good way of stopping people tampering. Yamachi posted a guide on doing it.

[xell_llex1985]

thanks found his post I'm been having hard time with this "cheaters" crashing my server... can i ask sir chumpy's about your server will there be an update coming soon ^_^ just wondering.... thanks for the reply more power ragezone!!!!

[chumpywumpy]

Of course there will be another update, i'm far from done with the files we have ;)

[xell_llex1985]

Hehehehhehe nice!!!!! can wait for the update I came across one of yamachi's post and boy I was stunned by his client enabling thos features ^_^. It'll be so cool with your new server files and Mr. Yamachi's client cabal gaming will be so diferent from official wahahahahhahaha
