SVN Repository

hmm I’m not able to commit, do I have to join the project first?

I just added m0tahs blowfish to the source, nothing is better than a good diff editor ^^

I’m no real C++ dev but I’m trying to learn it, could you add me please? e-mail is [email protected]

btw: Add useful commit messages, so you know what you changed where

thanks and commiting

I can’t test it here, so someone else has to compile and test it, sorry

Um, my two cents and feel free to tell me if I’m wrong. Please don’t check code in without compiling and testing it first.

it was working, I had it running and did no changes, only merged the code changes of motah to the content of the repository, but I can’t commit anyway, the client got crazy

i don’t understand all, but it’s the flhook 1.6.1 ?
i loved flhook 1.6.0, so can i use flhook 1.6.1 on my server ?

@w0dk4:

@Motah: I saw your blowfish encryption version, can you commit it to the svn build?

Done.

Already have sent a PM to M0tah (I must have oversaw this thread ^^), although you aren’t going to introduce new features, you might want to integrated already existing ones.
Here are the PMs:

I heared you are going to build a 1.6.5 FLHook version, I guess you will include your Flak88 specific features (-> F88 Hook version). Since it requires reprogramming for converting features to plugins, I want to suggest you ask around a bit because by this way may more features could get added from different servers (DFLS, Berlin etc. pp.)

M0tah

On the subject of FLHook, your idea is good but when I tried doing this in the past the results weren’t what I was hoping for, so I’m kinda wary of trying something like it again. I’m also not sure if the makers of the other FLHook versions are willing to open-source their code (I want to continue releasing Flak’s FLHook with source code). In addition, I’m thinking about implementing plugin functionality into Flak’s FLHook (similar to w0dk4’s plugin version) so people will be able to add more features via plugins.

Bas

So due to your moment plans FLHook 1.6.5 will be just Flak88 + Pluginversion?
We may don’t know if other FLH coders will release their source code to implent it into the new Hook version, but I believe it shall be worth a try. (And also recall: It will take more work/ressources to re-create them as plugins, and I don’t believe that a other Hook version will be released that soon ^^)

It is just the point, if some features can be only added to FLHook by adding them directly in the programm (since nobody voluntarys to convert it into plugins), then this chance shall be used instead of not implenting those features.
My 2 Cents.

I don’t know C++ yet (<- FLHook coder in spe….will learn C++ in my 2 next schoolyears…then I can develop for FLHook as well…hihi…), but isn’t it easier to implent written/existing Features into FLHook with the main version instead of plugins?
I wasn’t pointing into Flak 88 only, but aren’t there many server which haven’t moved to plugin because then they would lost their features (except they would convert them into plugins which might be more work instead of implenting them into FLHook directly?). Some Coders won’t re-release their features as plugins due to the work needed to do that, but they may would give out the source code so that they could implented into the mian version?

Argh…I try in german, I suck in english ^^

Ist es nicht einfacher/ressourceneffektiver (im Sinne von Arbeit), bestehende Features (NICHT als Plugins) in das Hauptprogramm zu integrieren als diese als Plugins neu zu schreiben? Ich meine damit, dass einige Serveradmins/Coder ihre Features NICHT als Plugins neuschreiben werden noch die Pluginversion nutzen werden, da ihre Features mit dieser inkompatibel sind. Aber WENN ihre Features in der neuen FLHookversion enthalten sind, gäbe es für sie auch keinen Grund, nicht zur Plugin/neuen FLHookversion zu wechseln - Ihre Features funktionieren ja nun mit dieser. Nicht nur das FLHook durch deren Features erweitert werden würde, sie würden dann möglicherweise auch anfangen, Plugins zu schreiben. Es würde also im Prinzip der Community/dem Projekt als Ganzem helfen, oder nicht?
(Ist alles nur Theorie, ich weiß nicht, wie der Aufwand wirklich ist, wenn man es direkt in das Hauptprogramm integriert ^^)

Evtl. könnte man ja auch eine “Full” und eine “Light” Version des neuen FLHooks veröffentlichen, oder so.

hi, please add me:

It would be nice to edit my Post if you added me and delete the Emailadress. Thx!

Could you please notify if you make any killer changes to the socket connection code - especially if you feel it would break compatability with Biocross and it’s FLHook interactivity.

Other than that, any news on what changes/fixes to expect in the new version?

Encrypted socket connections sound interesting, might look into it when it is fully released
