yeah, I told Confess it's not working for all zones. So his theory, although a good one that worked for some, turned out not to be the true problem.

all over my head... dear god.

http://forums.sscentral.com/index.php?showtopic=12236 for details as to what happened.

Other skin got corrupted in all that happened. I forgot to restore it, gimme a few mins.

Poor DSB... Why does everyone target it, we'll never know.

Saw Ghost Ship lookin at this last night, so maybe something might get spread.

So zones send out their data on port 4991. The zone initiates a connection, dir server responds, zone sends data, dir server acknowledges. Would it be possible to send the response to a server ip and get the zone data? or just even scan 4991 for any data being sent out? I know when I use to !@#$%^&* around with coding a biller, I was able to have a zone stand a lone, and then send data causing it to recycle and try to connect to me. This was years ago, and I don't remember what or how I did it, but was complete boredom and a few hrs of work. I understand this is something that wouldn't exactly be right to do, but just curious if anyone has ever tested this theory out.

Anyone trying to edit the image in the .dll, don't bother, cont isn't supposed to load if you edit it. Yeah. It will not load if anything is 1 byte off the right size. Continuum 2x checks all the file sizes when it loads. So if you could get all the images in it the right size byte for byte, it could be done. Also attached is the continuum splash out of the menures.dll - ff00ff is used for transparency.

Last 2x I've heard of this problem, it was some sort of spyware. It sucks how little it takes to keep this game from working properly, and it is a very common issue now a days. I find we're just giving the same tech support answer over and over. Anyways: http://forums.sscentral.com/index.php?act=...&CODE=01&HID=17 for some other solutions.

ds98, ssnet, edome, and sshq are all dead....

I'm starting to do more and more reading through C# and getting an understanding of it. But debating making a dir in either that or good ol VB. Want to make it so I can manually add zones to it as needed to get it started until more zones add it to their inis. I'm gonna wait for Altec to get on and see if any other ideas or anything comes up. But for now I wanted to get the domain added, as I can point it to any server or dir server as needed.

zones.sscentral.com is up. Gonna work on getting zones to add it. If anyone else is going to set one up, lemme know so I can try to get it added at same time.

Me and Altec have talked about possibly putting one up. zones.sscentral.com will probably be redirected at it, so it can be used by name instead of ip.

I say once it goes trash, split off the trash. That is what I had been doing, except for I was just deleting the trash, but now can be moved to Trash Talk forum.

He was just joking that the forum is trying to tell him that what he is typing has no contributive value to it, lol.

How it is right now is how it will stay. We're just trying some different things out to see if anything else worked to our liking. But nothing really set there, and none of the new forums really got any posts. So rather just focus it all in General.

Only if they remove the zones from their list when they download the game. SSCX had the problem once before, not seems it is happenin again. I can't remember if it was somethin about the namep!@#$%^&*word, or the dir server self blocked the ip. But yeah, been like that for probably goin on 6 days now.

There was a discussion the other day in eg by some ex-abyss players by how cool it'd be to see the zone again. Well, this carried onto another chat, and eventually I said I had nothin better to do, an server, and the slot for the zone, so meh, why not put it up for a bit to play in. So here it is... Alive and Kicking. SSCW The Abyss Probably just run it for a short time for the oldies ot play in and enjoy again. If it takes off big, who knows, maybe we'll update, and run it. But if your an old fan, or curious about this old zone, check it out!

We deleted the zone redirects. They we're on the drop menu for forum navigation, but now they're on the bar up top, no difference. Unless you we're on of the ones that browsed into the Redirects Forum > SSC > Zone or Redirect Forum > Non-SSC Forum > Zone. I'm not having zone redirects on the front, only in a subforum like so. So in other words, honestly, no need for them.
