first of all id like to say.

i like the demo i preffer it more than the full version. dont ask me why i just do and dont bother trying to call me a dumbass/newbie or what ever coz i like it

now thats outa the way. as you see i like the demo, but theres alot of cheating going on in it. i know a good deal of visual basic 6 and would like to make some sort of admin tool for the demo of renegade. i wouldnt know where to start with making a "anti-cheat" application like renguard and the likes.

here is what i have thought of doing:
as you may or may not know renegade demo doesnt allow kicking or banning players (why would ea/ww do this?) so i came up with the idea of making a mini firewall listing the ip's of a newly joined player then looking at the consoleserver window and using api to find the last joined players name and listing them both in a list for kicking/banning the specified ip

the thing is the server operates using udp not tcp (or maybe it does somewhere but not the connection) so im unable to list incoming udp connections.. Sad

any help would be great thanks.
or if you know any other way of doing what i want to do "List username and there ip" let me know please

Without the logfile that the current Renegade FDS makes, it would be extremely difficult to do anything.

I'm the bawss.

Lol....People still play the demo? Shocked

And if i remember...Maybe im wrong but the full version didnt have a kick/ban option eathier at first untill the patch for it came out. Maybe they never intended to put one in untill they realized DURING THE FULL VERSION that they needed it. If they only realized it during the full version why would they go back and fix the demo...

The demo was only made to satisfi people for a few weeks before ren came out. I cant believe people would still play it especially with the fact that the full version only cost's 10$

You can get three games including Ren for £7. That's, what, $11?

Do you have a local Target store? They still carry it.

lol, ok, that rules out good ole' Target.

It isn't very likely and admin tools will be released for the demo because, like Crimson said, it doesn't output logs, and not many people play/use it anymore.

If you're interested in doing something like that, maybe you should go look for iCQ-=6000068=-. You can probably find him on the Unreal 2 XMP forums.

There wasn't going to be a remote admin tool at all, until someone persuaded some of the bods at Westwood that it'd be a Good Thing.

Cough, cough.

Just ask in one of those stores if they will order it for you and then once it comes ask them to save it for you and ring you up.

Try it and see.
