Scratso

> Sorry, dude. i only work with real money. i don't do forum points. bump as well! Roar! :(

Bump. Our GUI Designer has abandoned us (evil blure!) and so we are in desperate need of a GUI. I will give the person 100 forum points *after* the forum has been made (I'm paranoid!) and given to me. You **will **get credit for the GUI, and, as I said, some free 100 forums points. Thank you in advance.

Hi, I've been nagged by the admins of my game for the past week and can't figure out how to get an external admin panel/dev suite. If anyone could help I will be so grateful as they are giving me a headache! I might even give you forum points depending on how fast you reply ;) Thank you in advance.

> The way I do mine, I host my files through dropbox (you can do it through ftp or anyway you want) and I have my updater download a version .txt file. It checks if the version is different and if so, the updater downloads the files. I would like to use this way. How would I do this?

Hmm… I need help on it working like #8bit-gamewatch at 8bitmmo.net/irc could you help?ATM I can only give forum points in pay though :-\

Hi, How can I make an autoupdater for eo2? Thanks in advance!

> I don't have enough time lately, since I had a lot of test papers at school that need learning and also projects for architecture class. Sorry, but I will need to get my top priorities done first (school, paid work, and after that comes free). In a month I might finish it, but that's a long time, so I can't quite tell if it is less, or maybe more. OK.

Blure, how long till I can get my GUI?

So, like, where if someone joins/leaves it writes it to a channel in an irc server and chat also works like this etc, so like people in irc can see everything… EG: [http://8bitmmo.net/irc](http://8bitmmo.net/irc) in #8bit-gamewatch Please help. I use EO2

> i thank i figured out how to do it with the show choises it only show 4 keywords though im hoping i can figure out how to make it more then 4 is it possable to make it more thin 4 like 3 words then a 4th one that says more and it leads to 3 more keywords thanks to SkywardRiver for suggesting to use a event to do it :) i had been looking for a script for a chaos gate system for 4 years now so that i could do this project never thought it could be as simple as the show choises I'm not sure that's possible… Then again, I don't use EFF. However, if it's similar to the usual Event System then no AFAIK.

Love it! Keep up on this excellent thing!

You could use Warp Attribute in Map Editor? Sorry if I'm wrong - I don't use frontier :D

Whoops! Forgot this: [CLIENT] In modText find ``` Case 4 color = QBColor(Yellow) ``` and add below it ``` Case 5 color = QBColor(Pink) 'Edit the colour if wanted! ``` Sorry! Updated Main post. (If you miss that part out it still has the Name above the admin's head black - this turns it pink. ModHandleData's colours deal with Chat colour - It makes the name Pink in chat :D)

It might not need to be used, but I didn't see any others so I thought it would help new players…

Ok, so I recently realised I was asking for tutorials and not giving back to the community. This is an easy tutorial and it is my first tutorial and after searching I found no one else had made one on this so I did. It works in EO2 but I don't know about other engines. This'll add another admin rank to your EO2 game and give it a designated colour for name (as default for uncoloured admin ranks is black). So, lets begin! [CLIENT] Open ModConstants and find this: ``` Public Const ADMIN_CREATOR As Byte = 4 ``` Beneath it add ``` Public Const ADMIN_OWNER As Byte = 5 'You can change the "OWNER" to anything you want. ``` So, now you've added the rank! Now lets deal with the colours! In ModHandleData find ``` Case 4 colour = QBColor(Yellow) ``` and add beneath it ``` Case 5 colour = QBColor(Pink) 'You can change the colour to what you want. ``` In modText find ``` Case 4 color = QBColor(Yellow) ``` and add below it ``` Case 5 color = QBColor(Pink) 'Change colour if wanted! ``` And then it should have that as the colour! Now, to let the server recognise this new rank! [SERVER] In ModConstants find ``` Public Const ADMIN_CREATOR As Byte = 4 ``` and add below it ``` Public Const ADMIN_OWNER As Byte = 5 'You can change the "OWNER" to anything you want. ``` Voila! You now have another admin rank that the server will auto-set as highest admin rank! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ EXTENSION: Want now to restrict an admin button? Maybe prevent Access Setting to only ADMIN_OWNERs? Then follow this! [CLIENT ONLY] Open frmMain and get to your Admin Panel (set fullscreen enabled and open fullscreen within VB6) Now, double-click "Set Access" button. Change ``` If GetPlayerAccess(MyIndex) < ADMIN_CREATOR Then Exit Sub End If If Len(Trim$(txtAName.text)) < 2 Then Exit Sub End If ``` to ``` If GetPlayerAccess(MyIndex) < ADMIN_SCRATSO Then 'Change SCRATSO to your 'Highest Admin Access! Exit Sub End If If Len(Trim$(txtAName.text)) < 2 Then Exit Sub End If ``` And Voíla! You now have restricted admin promotions to your new rank!

Ok… I tried downloading but got an Automation Error. It may be because it uses music and my pc is missing it's Audio Drivers due to an OS reinstallation :(

If it uses DirectX7 I can be a Forum and Game Moderator, but as of right now I can't play DirectX8 so please tell me: does it use DX7 or DX8?

> Please edit your posts, and dont triple post. Administration here is very nice, so you might get just a warning. :D Oh, sorry, didn't realise… I had thought them last 2 were just one... must've crashed. Ah well, sos.
