The Dlls are coming along nicely. The code is clean, efficient and fast.

Just a little screenie for the day:

A server tool brought to you by BrandiniMP and Patrickssj6. The AsGard project has been merged into this one and all features are going to be maintained and extended. This server tool is different from the usual ones.

1.There is no external application running constantly in the background.

2.There are 2 dlls doing the job. Both can be loaded/unloaded in real-time and by so updated without the server needing to restart.

Feature List (to be extended)

This is a brief demo of Asgard, my WIP halo addin DLL, its server side and its for the dedicated server, im just showing you with the client because its easier.

Demonstrating:

Devmode - Switch devmode on and off in the server (includes pressing TAB to list all devmode commands).

Serverlist - Set the server list that the server is displayed on (default = 1.00.00.0609).

Playerinfo - Display information about a player (name, hash, ip, team, ping and more coming soon).

Ipbanning - Ban a player by their ip address.

I know it has been a long time…busy with life, trying to do new things which can’t be really represented visually but I still whipped this up. With this you can customize your MC up to 24bpp (diffcult abreviation for the possibility of having 256 * 256 * 256 combinations of color).

Anyone up for a pink Master Chief cinematic?

I might start off by saying that this site is running unexpectedly well. Satisfied with the activity and traffic already, hoping to see more in the future ahead.

We welcome our new team member Omega, who some may know from the Modacity forums and also for creating the patch to fix some known Halo exploits. Proud to have someone among us with that much skill.

Furthermore BrandiniMP posted a demonstration of his server tools including enabled devmode, which until now, has never been done on a dedicated server.

Working on a little project in my free time which I call ‘Vivid Vista’. Purpose of it is to improve the user interaction with the operating system.

First part I was working on today was getting ‘application ring’ as you can see in the pictures to work. You hold down the middle mouse button and if you wait a few moments the ring will slowly fade in showing the options you can choose from.

Next step is you drag the mouse into a specific direction. If you want to start Notepad you would hold down the middle mouse button, drag the mouse up and release it again and it would start Notepad. It doesn’t stop there though. If you drag the mouse into the upper left corner it is going to start both of the application at the same time and if you do a half-circle like shown in the pictures, it’s going to launch all the applications at once. Starting Notepad, Firefox and Zune (a music manager) at the same time may not be that much of a big use but the user can customize this application completely and assign different functions and applications to the individual slots.

A few days ago the [HIV] Server Tool made by rec0 got leaked by an ex-HIVer called [HIV]Blind.

The build, which only works for a custom version of the dedicated server 1.07 for Halo Custom Edition, has been uploaded on multiple sources. Bacon gave me the custom version to convert it to the new version of Halo Custom Edition.

People contacted me on MSN if I could convert their dedicated server as well so it would work with the new patch and the server tool.

I won’t support any of this and nor will any of the VA team members. Rec0’s Server Application was a great piece of programming which only should have been accessible to some of the [HIV]ers and should have never gotten out of hand.
