Someone tell me how to find out my PC # or use their almighty global skills to unban me on N-Pulse. Yeah, I don't want to explain because I will sound retarded but...the account is punkyx. Thanks.

The server needs to be restarted to enable the new banning features and so on. Even with your computer ID, I can't properly unban you until that's done.

Yeah I have ME as well and I get that same error. : (

excaliber7388 · #45 01-19-2006, 02:51 AM

Do you have trouble with V4 as well? (and a few other programs, but thats not the point)

ZeLpH_MyStiK · #46 01-19-2006, 02:55 AM

Stefan do you think it'd be doable to have the [ESC] button act as a shortcut for close? Just like in the old version? It'd be really helpful.

For PMs ?

On RC1, the ESC key would close RC, but it would not terminate the program. Rather, it was a "lazy" way of closing RC so that the window does not bother you or block you from working on other things/surfing through other programs. On RC2, pressing the ESC key, while on the normal screen of any server you have logged on to, nothing will occur.

Kronan · #49 01-19-2006, 05:31 AM

I'm not to fond of the pre-defined ban times. I rather set my own, and make my own reasons. It's quite dumb that it doesn't allow me to choose "Other" for a ban.

If you need a new ban type added then contact me. It is better if local bans are only done in a serious way, with predefined ban reasons and ban messages instead of local admins doing 'fun messages'.
The database of bantypes and bantimes can easily be modified and updated, without updating the RC.

Zeltino · #51 01-19-2006, 05:48 AM

So ME doesn't allow it to run. That Pango Error. Damn you Pango!

*tear =(

Warcaptain · #53 01-19-2006, 06:50 AM

how to skin graal RC?

Warcaptain · #54 01-19-2006, 06:54 AM

also... if you can re-add it so that the delete key does things. (it used to disconnect players, delete npc's etc..)

in addition.. while i understand you are trying to crack down on PW's banning for unfair reasons.. you are going to probably run into more problems of people either: a) not wanting to ban someone for just the pre-defined ammount of time for a 'crime' or b) people just going to Other Unlimited all the time, and saying they will 'come back' later

honestly, it would probably be easier if you just made it so you could type in the offense, and select an ammount of time. you are going to have to police unfair bans just the same with this new system.. doing what i suggested merely makes things easier on fair administrators.

Download mine and look how i did it.

You have to put the color codes in the config, and make your own images if you want to. You can use your old RC skin images but you have to split the "up" and "down" states into separate images now.

Zxion · #56 01-19-2006, 08:57 AM

Uhh...yeah...I've been banned from Classic since Feb. 2003 -_-

It's actually the Cairo vector engine (part of GTK) which is not working on Windows95/98/ME :/

Prozac · #59 01-19-2006, 05:58 PM

I noticed that on adding or deleing npc wepaons or classes,
when you click Apply, it does not update the list of npcs
until you refresh the window.

Is there a way to have the Apply in the code window communicate to the npc weapon/class list and refresh the list when an npc is saved as new/updated/deleted?

Admins · #60 01-19-2006, 06:11 PM

Upate: released versions for Windows95/95/ME and for Linux with older GTK 2.0

Malinko · #61 01-19-2006, 07:35 PM

Pre-defined ban reasons is quite nice in addition with the automatic un-ban.

I think "detailed" ban messages can go in the account comments, which local staff can check if needed.

farte6 · #62 01-19-2006, 09:51 PM

RC......I sure dont like it
The Whole text setup and all needs to be like it was on RC1 because its currently unpleaseing.
Also
It would be nice if ya know made is so you could open files without having the download it like on RC1....man that so annoying downloading every text and picture file to a folder.

You do know about the right click and edit as text, right?

There is no "Edit" option anymore, but you can still double-click on files and you can use "Edit Text" for easy editing of text files

Yep, that's exactly what i meant. It makes things a lot more convenient, and old RC users are probably a lot used to using the [ESC] key to minimize RC to the system tray as opposed to moving your mouse over to the corner and pressing the [x] button.

btw: RC2 is still showing RC chat text a lot slower than RC1 does, although it is a great improvement from older RC2 versions.

jake13jake · #66 01-20-2006, 03:23 AM

Two most pleasing features you could probably add:
1. Stylesheets for syntax highlighting, chat text, etc.
2. Auto-unban (although I just hear this, I've never had the power to ban)

Oh, and I like how you forced me to have a download folder... my desktop is really cluttered.

Yen · #67 01-20-2006, 05:28 AM

Oh my god.. I just noticed the 'Edit as text' in the file manager.
I LOVE YOU, STEFAN!

napo_p2p · #68 01-20-2006, 09:51 AM

With RC2, I have to log off RC when I go on my BOOM HEADSHOT! breaks to play America's Army

(PunkBuster conficts with RC2).

Other than that RC2 rocks. Overshot my expectations (and I even had a 'sneak preview').

xXziroXx · #69 01-20-2006, 03:22 PM

I have problems getting RC2 to even run. Im using Windows 2000 and when I try to run the .exe, it loads for a few seconds and then nothing.. No errors or anything, but it just wont open. Any ideas on how to get it to work?

Both versions? There is also a compatibility version for Windows95/98/ME, basicly the same program just using an old look and more compatible (older) libraries.

xXziroXx · #71 01-20-2006, 03:56 PM

Yeah, I tried both versions and none of them will run.

Silent · #72 01-20-2006, 07:02 PM

It's nice that we can open more than one script at a time now, but it's possible to open the same script multiple times which can get a little confusing. Could this be prevented please?

I disagree.
The pre defined bans are good, if the reason is defined but if a person was banned several times he deserves a longer ban time. There must be a editfunction for that kind of bans!
And please soon!

Then we just add a new bantype for that, like we did for multiple jailings ?

Admins · #76 01-20-2006, 11:00 PM

Update: new RC2 versions released. Updates:

- you can close several windows with the <escape> key (server list, main window, player list, PMs)
- in the serverlist you can connect by pressing the <enter> key
- fixed sorting of channels/chatters
- fixed a freezing problem on connect

Yes please, that should help in cases of persistent offenders.

Yen · #78 01-20-2006, 11:09 PM

It'd also be nice if you added the 'Edit Script Flags' check box?
I can't even open my attributes, because it'll mess up my items array

napo_p2p · #79 01-20-2006, 11:14 PM

When I ban myself and try to connect it shows no ban reason. It just says "You have been disconnected..."

It would be nice if it showed ban reason and time left.

Nitro2030ce · #80 01-21-2006, 02:26 AM

i have an idea for RC2, flashing tabs for when a message is sent to you in a different chat window.
Like, lets say you are in the channel #Blah, and some one sends you a message in the RC Chat tab, it should flash to tell you that you have a message.
