sPATCH - Auto Patcher

I dont think every server package uses lammp. My understanding is that its just a package of other programs, apache, phpmyadmin, mysql... and it would still work fine if you installed these separately.

Correct me if I'm wrong.
 
How do you convert the file. XUP? : S This format is not read. The sPatch can read. Rar?

I would suggest the Grand Ronny to work on top of Patch PWI, the interface is so cute. kkk
 
When i type i get the page with:
Index of /pw

Apache/2.2.12 (Ubuntu) Server at 192.168.0.10 Port 80

situated in winscp?,or in other words which directory does this address point to?

.xup is same as .7z or .zip, use what you want, but i think rar is not supported...

then you have to use sPatcher v0.8a or use a web server that is compatible with sPatcher v0.9b i.e. lighttpd
 
I am getting the same error with sPatcher v0.8a,dunno whts wrong but in Ronny we trust !:thumbup:
Also i am using windows with hrace009's unbuntu server,so is it possible that i can use lighttpd?
And lastly if my friend uses autopatcher whts the patch_server address he needs to put in order to auto patch from my server?Is it the same as serverlist.txt?

Thx for bearing with me so far ....am almost there:P:
 
Ronny, got a quick newbie question regarding the patcher- how can I make the window/background image accept transparency in the background as transparency? I had a image for my patcher window in mind however... it doesn't seem to like the fact that I have some transparent areas... they show as white when I open up the patcher window to load the game.
also, one other thing, could you (or anyone else) tell me in a little more newbie-friendly detail how to do the patching/slipstreaming piece of the patcher? (to start with, what program in your tools I should use to be slipstreaming? and where to obtain a .xup file?) I've been looking around through your documentation on your site but haven't come across the details I need (as a newbie to this I sometimes need step-by-step explanations of things... which apparently I need help with this time as well) i'll read through this thread again to make sure I haven't missed anything though.

Very Quick Tutorial (VQT) : making a XUP patch for sPatcher ! :ott1:


- Make a new folder called "element"
- Put patch files in it (such as data folder, elementclient.exe, whatever you want!)
- If you want to patch a pck folder, you will need to follow the procedure below (see *)
- Compress the "element" folder with 7zip archiver and using 7z format! WINRAR NOT COMPATIBLE!!!
- Rename the element.7z -> element.xup
- Now you have a XUP file, hehe..


*For patching a pck folder follow these procedure:
- folder.pck.files\folder\"put your new data"
- then put "folder.pck.files" into "element" folder of the patch you want to make!
- Compress the "element" folder.....

Im guessing you are using a picture format that supports transparency like png? My guess would be that the patcher has a white background on the image container and to get transparency ronny would have to change the program.

actually, as some know I use photoshop, so .psd format for me, which, yes, supports transparency... however it saved the initial window (ronnies blue background) in .png so... I tried saving in .png format but... i'm not really sure that png even supports it being as it wont let me show transparency :blink: lol
