Gproxy Tutorial

GProxy tool coded by stefos007 comes with some specific features, one of them is the ability to play sounds. For example, by default, whenever someone in your friend list joins a channel, you get a sound played, or when you receive a whisper you have a different sound. If you want to temporarily(until gproxy.exe is closed) disable all sounds, you can type !sounds in any channel, and you will disable all sounds. If you type !sounds again, you will enable all of them again. If you type !sid in any channel, you will get a list with all sounds available. Also, using the command !sid you are able to disable/enable specific sounds. For instance, after typing !sid, it is possible to find out that the sound related to friend joining game has ID 19. If you want to disable this sound only, you must type: !sid 19 off To enable it back, you must type: !sid 19 on For permanently disabling a sound, you should go to your Warcraft III folder and look for the gproxy.cfg file. Open it with notepad and then change the line with the sound you want to enable/disable, for example: sound_19 = 1 to sound_19 = 0 By doing so, you will permanently disable the sound it plays when a friend joins a game. Note: Remember that you can find all sounds IDs by typing !sid in any channel In the list it appears to you when you type !sid, some of the sounds come with an *(asterisk) in front, these sounds are played automatically when an event happens, for the others, you should whisper the person with /w nick send-sound For example: If you want to slap MiZiGe, do as follows: /w MiZiGe send-slap More commands /hide (Hide console. You can restore with !console from chat. /sounds (enable/disable sounds) /f (send message to all your friends) /l (lock/unlock username for /re comand) /re (reply message. No need username) /v (version) /mu (mute user) /md (delete muted users) /ml (print list of muted users) /start (start warcraft 3) !sc (Automatically spoof checks to host) Leagues that use Gproxy CZSK Romania Turkey Brasil Safelist Balkan TurkDota Egypt For a list of which commands you can use with GProxy, type !commands Or you can look the commands up here: Gproxy:Commands You can look up all the sounds here: Gproxy:SoundId's

Portforwarding Router Tutorial

=What is port forwarding and why do you need it?= Port forwarding (sometimes referred to as tunneling or virtual servers) is the act of forwarding a network port from one network node to another. Port forwarding allows remote computers (e.g. public machines on the Internet) to connect to a specific computer within a private LAN. So in order to host a game online, you must allow public computers on the internet to connect to your computer. If you don't port forward, all incoming connections to your PC will be refused and thus no one will be able to join your game. It is required to have forwarded ports in the following types of games: Melee (standard, PG) games require at least one of the players to have his ports forwarded in order to use his computer as host for the game. If neither of the players can be the host, the game will be cancelled and everyone will be disconnected. Manually hosted games (with Create Game), only on your computer, since it will be used as the host for the game. Games created with the Ghost/Ghost++/etc bots, only on the computer where the bot is running. Solution 1 (recommended) Ports which have to be forwarded: TCP 6112-6119 UDP 6112-6119 1) Go to https://portforward.com/router.htm 2) Select your router brand from the list 3) Skip advertisement by clicking "Close" 4) Select the model of your router 5) Follow simple steps for your router model to forward the needed ports 6) You should now be able to use your pc as host for warcraft 3 games Solution 2 Paradyne router D-Link router Speedtouch router (In case solution 1 did not work, this solution contains common steps that can be used by everyone) Hello and welcome to our port forwarding guide. 1) Requirements Open cmd.exe (Start > All programs > Accessories > Command Prompt) Type ipconfig, notice the Default Gateway. NOTE: Enter Warcraft > Options > Game Play Check your Game Port, it should be 6112 on Normal Gateway and 6113 on GProxy Gateway. 2) Configuration Open your web browser, type the IP you just saw, for example, in my case I have to type http://192.168.1.254 You should see a box prompting you for your username and password. Enter your password now. By default your username and password are admin. You can find your router's username and password in your router's manual. Click the Log in button to log in to your router. Ok, Now you must search for "Port Forward", "Virtual Server" or "Game & Application Sharing". They are usually located in the advanced settings of your router. Make sure to forward both 6112 and 6113 (it is recommended to forward 6114-6119 as well). Some routers have Warcraft 3 in their database, so all you have to do is add the Warcraft 3 to the Applied Rules. If you don't have it, create a new application with the following settings: Protocol: Any Port Range: 6112-6113 Translate To: 6112-6113 Or if you don't have "Any" as a protocol type. Protocol: TCP Port: 6112-6113 Translate To: 6112-6113 Protocol: UDP Port: 6112-6113 Translate To: 6112-6113 For port forwarding and port opening it is NOT required to have a range from 6114 to 6119 opened. However, it may be useful if you are planning to host multiply games at once on your PC. 3) Get information about your router Visit http://www.portforward.com/routers.htm Search for your router's brand and exact model. Follow the instructions that are specifically made for your router in order to port forward.

Static Internal IP Router Tutorial

A -VERY- important part of setting up a Static IP address on your computer is CHOOSING an appropriate number to assign to the computer as its permanent, “static” IP address. There’s more to it than just picking any old number at random, and the number your computer has been using up until now may NOT be an appropriate choice. This is because some routers may have trouble forwarding ports to IP addresses which conflict with their DHCP server address range. That is, if the IP address on the computer is the same as one which the DHCP server might assign, the Port Forwarding may FAIL. So the FIRST step in setting up a Static IP address is to find out what range the DHCP server is set up for, and choosing a number that will NOT conflict with that range. Log into your router and look for a page that tells what the DHCP Server configuration is. This is usually found under “Advanced Configuration” and then “LAN” (or similar wording). Once you’ve found the DHCP Server page there should be one of two different ways of displaying the RANGE of addresses in the server. The first is the simplest. It gives the “Starting Address” and the “Ending Address” (or “Low” and “High”) Thus for example if you see: Starting Address 192.168.0.100 Ending Address 192.168.0.150 The “Range” of the DHCP server is FROM 192.168.0.100 TO 192.168.0.150 The second way the DHCP Server range can be displayed is to give the “Starting Address” and the “Number of Clients” (or “Number of Addresses”) Thus for example if you see: Starting Address : 192.168.0.10 Number of Clients: 50 The “Range” of the DHCP server is FROM 192.168.0.10 TO 192.168.0.60 (50 addresses, starting at 10) You must choose a number from 2 through 254 which does NOT fall within the DHCP server range, and which does NOT duplicate the address already being used by the router (the IP address you type to log into the router).. So in the first example you would be safe choosing a Static IP Address for your computer of 192.168.0.151 And in the second example you could safely choose 192.168.0.61, because these numbers are OUTSIDE of the DHCP Server range. NOTE- This is important! The "Range" of the DHCP server is INCLUSIVE. That means when we say (just for example, your router will probably be different) : Start address 192.168.0.100 End address 192.168.0.150 It means you CAN'T USE .100 OR .150 OR ANY of the numbers between them. In most cases, all you’ll need to do is check the “range” of the DHCP server and pick a safe IP address outside that range for your computer. BUT- there IS one situation which will require you to make a change to the ROUTER setup BEFORE you can go on. If you discover the DHCP server is set to use ALL possible IP addresses, then that leaves NO safe addresses for YOU to use. Starting Address 192.168.0.2 Ending Address 192.168.0.254 <-- This leaves NO addresses free for YOU to use. If the DHCP server is set to use the entire range, from .2 through .254 then you will have to CHANGE the higher figure to something lower in order to free up some addresses that will be safe for YOU to use. On the DHCP server page, CHANGE the “Ending Address” from .254 to something like .200 Starting Address 192.168.0.2 Ending Address 192.168.0.200 <-- This leaves 54 addresses free for YOU to choose. That will make the “range” of the DHCP server from .2 through 200 then you can choose any address higher than .200, in this example, 192.168.0.205 Click the “Apply” or “OK” button, then if necessary, REBOOT the router to make the change take effect. NOTE: VERY IMPORTANT!! We are picking the LAST set of digits in the IP address ONLY..! The FIRST THREE sets of digits MUST be the SAME as the ones the router and the DHCP server uses. Thus, if YOUR router uses 192.168.2.1, then you MUST pick a Static IP address that begins with 192.168.2 If YOUR router uses 10.0.0.1, then you MUST pick a Static IP address that begins with 10.0.0 Again- we’re ONLY changing the LAST set of digits. Now that you’ve decided on a compatible Static IP address to use for your computer, follow this link for a guide to setting up the IP address on your computer- However- SKIP the first few steps that tell you to look in IPCONFIG for the IP address, and just use the compatible IP address you've chosen with this guide. Skip ahead to the step (#5 in the Windows XP guide) that tells you to open the Control Panel and follow the instructions from there. http://portforward.com/networking/staticip.htm Once you've finished this procedure, the address you decided on, and configured in Windows TCP/IP Network Properties will be your "Static IP Address". Whenever anything asks for your computer's Static IP Address, this number is what it's asking for. NOTE- If your Internet connection stops working when you change Windows to a Static IP address, the reason usually is that you need to find out what your "DNS Server" addresses are. If you have this problem, read THIS guide for help on that: http://forum.portforward.com/YaBB.cgi?board=Knowledge;action=display;num=1116580819

Static Internal IP Windows Tutorial

Own Dota Ladder with Ghost Tutorial

[Tutorial] How to make your own dota ladder? Are you an owner of ghost++ or ghostOne? Would you like to make your own dota ladder to be displayed on your own site? This is the right tutorial for you. MAIN STEP BY STEP FOLLOW THIS TUTORIAL EXACTLY AS IT SAYS OR YOU MIGHT ENCOUNTER ERRORS! Difficulty: Medium Time: ~1 hour, depends on you If you don't yet own a ghost, go and either download ghost++ or ghostOne (recommended). You can get either of them here: http://forum.codelain.com/ Tutorials about setting up ghost and other related things can be found here: Ghost++ : http://www.codelain.com/wiki/index.php?title=ReadMe GhostOne : http://codelain.com/forum/index.php?topic=1274.0 I suggest getting GhostOne, because you will need it later to transform your old database to mysql. If you're on linux, you'll have to use ghost++ and external tools for transformation. STEP 1.1 In order to host your site, you will need to setup a server on your PC. If you already own one (needs PHP+MySQL) skip this step. If you don't own a server already, go download and install WAMP server: http://www.wampserver.com/en/download.php Running linux? Get LAMP server instead. STEP 1.2 Run WAMP server. LEFT click on the tray icon, select Start all services. Open the menu again and click Put Online. When the server is online you will see a white tray icon with the indicator to full. Now go in your modem/router configuration and [B]open port 80 (port forward)[/B]. After you open the port 80, you can now reach your server by putting your IP in browser's adress bar. You can find out your IP here: [url]http://www.whatismyip.com/[/url]. Make sure you also open port 80 on your firewall, if you don't do that, firewall will block all the trafic and nobody will be able to acces your website. Now left click on tray icon of WAMP server and run phpmyadmin. In the "create new database" field, type a random name for your database, ex: dotaladder, and create the database. Make sure you remember this name because you will need it later on. Now select the newly created database (if it's not already selected-on the menu on the left), click on Privileges tab and click on Add new user. Input your new Username, set Hostname=localhost (if you own an external server put your IP here) and Password. In the Global Privileges click on Check all to check all the boxes and hit Go button. Creating a new user is optional, you can also use pre-existing root account, but it has no password and might be vulnerable to hackers. It is recommended to set a new password for root account as soon as possible. STEP 1.3 Now select your database again (if it's not selected already) and hit the Import tab. Open your Ghost folder and search for: for GhostOne: mysql_create_tables_v2.3one.sql for Ghost++: mysql_create_tables_v2.sql File names are outdated, make sure you select the latest version that you find in your ghost folder. Hit the Go button to import the tables. STEP 1.4 Download and install TortoiseSVN http://tortoisesvn.net/downloads Restart your PC. STEP 1.5 Now run WAMP server again, left click on tray and open www directory. Create new folder in www directory and call it whatever you want ex: allstats. Now run explorer (Go: Run>explorer) and in the map treeview search for c:\wamp\www\yourfolder folder. Right click on your folder and select SVN checkout. In the URL of repository, copy this link: http://allstats.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ The checkout repository must be your custom folder you made back then. Hit the Ok button to start downloading Dota Allstats source files. This is the main part of the tutorial. To find out more about the Allstats source, visit http://code.google.com/p/allstats/ Wait for the files to download. STEP 1.6 Open file config.php (it downloaded in your folder) to configure your settings. I recommend using some site editor program but notepad should do the work too. Just be carefull not to save the file as .txt and make sure you choose utf8 coding. The following lines are necessary to be edited: $host = 'localhost'; $username = 'TheUsernameYouCreatedInTheDatabase'; $password = 'TheUsernamePassword'; $databasename = 'TheNameOfYourDatabaseYouCreated'; $botName = 'YourBotName'; $rootAdmin = 'Bot'sRootAdmin'; Other lines are optional. STEP 1.7 Now open PhPMyadmin and select your GHost database on the left. Select the import tab. Click choose file and select the MySQLSetup.sql file (located in your allstats folder). Click Import. STEP 1.8 You're almost done! You can now reach your dota ladder page by putting your IP in the browser's address bar. ex: yourIP/nameofyourfolder You will notice that your ladder is currently empty. In order to import all the data from your old database (if you were using sqlite so far), open GhostOne->Database->Open database (wamp server must be running! after opening the "Import from sqlite" button should appear)->Import from sqlite->Check all boxes and Import. You're done! When importing from old database it could happen that no dota games are imported. This is because you probably weren't using the correct map cfg-s. For dota games to be saved in database, you need to open up your dota cfg, search for line map_type and set it to: map_type=dota OPTIONAL-HIGHLY RECOMMENDED STEP 2.1 - Hiding your IP from public If you want to share the ladder with your friends or with public, it's recommended to hide your IP from them and all other people. http://www.no-ip.com/ Select NO-IP Free, fill up your e-mail and sign up. Fill all the textboxes with your info and create new account. After receiving activation e-mail follow the activation link to activate your account. After that, login and click on Host/Redirects tab. Select Add host, choose your domain name (it will include no-ip.org on the end but it's free!), choose DNS Host (A) option, enter your IP address and create the host. If you have dynamic IP you should also download and install their client which must be run everytime you reconnect to your internet. Their client will assign the correct IP to the domain, because dynamic IP changes on every reconnect. And now you're done! You can check your domain name under [U]Manage hosts[/U] link. Simply enter the adress in your adress bar like this: yourdomainname.no-ip.org/nameofyourfolder/ and that's it! IMPORTANT INFO! -Your ghost won't be able to start if mysql service isn't working. WAMP server must be running (offline or online, doesn't matter) or bot won't be able to connect. But, if you want your ladder site to be visible to the public, your server must be Online. -If you want to start WAMP server on system startup, go Run->type in "shell:startup" and make a shortcut to wamp in the folder which opens (right click on wamp shortcut, hold it and release in Startup folder->create shortcut). You can do this for any other program. -After you succesfully setup allstats, you can uninstall Tortoise SVN, as you probably won't need it for the rest of your life if you're an average user. It'll only take your resources on startup etc. That tool is only needed to download the allstats source files. If you encounter any errors feel free to post or PM me. (Cen)

Transferring WC3-Banlist bans to Ghost Tutorial

Upload your localdb.xml from WC3banlist to generate a sql file ghost.sql then import that into your ghost.dbs which will update it with records from your banlist you can import it using sqlite analyzer or any other sqlite dbms using http://sqlite.org/download.htmlsqlite command line (Windows) 1. Extract to your ghost folder (the location of ghost.dbs) 2. Create a shorcut to the extracted sqlite3 3. Right-click the shortcut, in target add to the end ghost.dbs ".read ghost.sql" 4. Make sure the ghost.sql is in the ghost folder also, click the shortcut When the empty console box closes it is done if a console box appears and disappears quickly you might of made an error using sqlite analyzer. a). In sqlite analyzer create a new database registration file -> New Database Registration, put the full location of ghost.dbs in database path b). Selecting the ghost database in the list go to file -> open and select the file created from the website c).Click on the Green play button in the toolbar then wait patiently until that turns green again then your done.

Unable to join LAN game

Unable to join LAN game So your friend or brother is hosting a game and you can’t join; what to do now? There is a really cool feature in Ghost++, introduced in version 9.x which allows people on same network to play together without any problem. This feature is called the “Admin Game” and was initially designed to do a completely different job. Fortunately for us, Admin Game also solves the joining LAN games problem. First, download and set up Ghost++ or GhostOne, you can find a simple guide to do that ( TO BE ADDED) After your ghost can enter eurobattle.net and host games normally , we will make a simple modification to the configuration to allow Admin games (and thus people on same LAN to enter). Edit the ghost.cfg to include this: ADMIN GAME CONFIGURATION # whether to create the admin game or not (see readme.txt for more information) admingame_create = 1 the port GHost++ will host the admin game on (this must be different from your bot_hostport) admingame_port = 6114 the admin game password admingame_password = xpam Note: You need to set admingame_port in ghost.cfg to the port you want to host the admin game on. It *must* be different from your bnet_hostport *and* from your Warcraft 3 port. bot_hostport = 6000 admingame_port = 6114 Enter Warcraft, Options > Game Play > Port should be different (default is 6112) Save the file and start ghost.exe GHost++ automatically hosts a Warcraft 3 game (the "Admin Game") and broadcasts it to the local network. 1.) Open Warcraft 3 and go to the LAN screen. After a few seconds you will see a game called "GHost++ Admin Game" appear. Join it. 2.) Use the password command to enter your Admin Game password (e.g. !password xpam). a.) If you enter the wrong password you will be kicked from the game and temporarily banned for 5 seconds. 3.) Use the map or load command to load a map. (e.g. !map dota6.73b) 4.) Use the priv/privby/pub/pubby commands to create a game. You should wait until it says "Battle.net game hosting succeeded" before continuing. (e.g. !pub AP/Eu/PROS) 5.) Leave the game and return to the LAN screen. After a few seconds you will see your newly created game appear. Join it. 6.) You are now ready to play. Your game has been created on battle.net. 7.) If you make a mistake and want to unhost the game you can use !unhost in either game (the Admin Game or your newly created game). We are aware that this feature is easily abusable, you can choose any nickname in place of yours. This is a warning, if you abuse this feature your IP will be PERMANENTLY Banned From Eurobattle.net. No Excuses. This guide and feature is to help you. DO NOT ABUSE IT. Unable to join own or LAN game (ADSL users) Hi guys, after few weeks of trying to solve problem of joining your own game, or game created by other machine in Local Area Network (LAN), I finally managed to get it to work. PLEASE NOTE: This solution maybe not work for you! These settings are usually for ADSL users! The solution for this problem is in general: 1.Turn your router/gateway in Pure Bridge mode 2. Enable PPPoE connection on all of your computers (You will need the username and password from your ISP) 3.Fix your firewall rules 4.Try to host public game, if everyone (from the internet) can join, then try to join your other machines on LAN This works for most of routers that doesn`t support NAT Loopback, but the settings about pure bridge mode, may be different, based on your router and it`s own firmware.

Ventrilo

Ventrilo Here's a simple guide on how to connect to a ventrilo server. There is no fees, as some of you may think. First of all, I want you to know that we are not using the latest version of ventrilo, for licensing reasons. So? Let's start ! 1.Download and unzip here: http://www.ventrilo.com/download.php . There is no need to install it, all the program is in one file. And if you have another version of ventrilo, there is no need to uninstall it. 2.After you unzip everything you open ventrilo.exe as shown in the picture below: http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/2731/upicccccccccccccccccccccw2.jpg Click on it. You should get this if you have a newer version of ventrilo: http://img234.imageshack.us/img234/6818/upiccccccccccccccccccccbx0.jpg Just click No. If you dont have any ventrilo program installed on your computer you should see something like this: http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/7291/upiccccccccccccccccccccpd3.jpg 3.Click on the "->" infront of "Username:": http://img175.imageshack.us/img175/5258/upiccccccccccccccccccccin7.jpg Now you get this window: http://img141.imageshack.us/img141/1631/upicccccccccccccccccccctr8.jpg Put the username you want to appear to people and to identify your self. In the phonetic name put the name you want to people hear when you connect. 4.Now you need to connect to a server. Click on the "->" in front of servers. In this window: http://img384.imageshack.us/img384/5257/upiccccccccccccccccccccan0.jpg Press on New put any name you desire and press Ok. Put the same info as in the picture: IP address: 150.254.70.99 Port number: 3784 And press Ok No password is needed for this server. Now that you've set up all ventrilo to be able to connect to our server, you can finally use it. Just press on Connect and in couple of seconds you will be connected successfully. If you have any problems related to this please post in the [URL="http://eurobattle.net/forumdisplay.php?f=18"]Technical Support[/URL] section. For more information, read http://www.ventrilo.com/about.php Have fun :) Note: If you are getting asked to update the version, when you open ventrilo.exe , you can solve it. Go to > Setup > Search for the tab called "Global" > Uncheck the box beside "Check for new version" > And press "Ok" - That's all ! Ventrilo on Linux You can install Ventrilo under Wine very easily in Ubuntu Linux. Here is how you can accomplish such a feat. so you can join your friends on a Vent server while gaming or whatever else you may use Ventrilo for. First: Make sure you have the newest version of Wine setup and installed. sudo apt-get install wine Second: Download Ventrilo for Windows (see Ventrilo above) and install it under Wine. Third: Now Vent at default requires the use of an audio codec called GSM 6.10, and from my own experience this codec/driver is not included in WINE right of the bat, so youll have to get the file msgsm32.acm http://www.ventrilo.com/download.php , unzip it and place this file in your system32 (/home/USER/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32) directory under Windows in WINE Fourth: goto the Windows directory (should be /home/USER/.wine/drive_c/windows) and open the file named system.ini and place this line in it under the drivers32 section (for organization sake) MSACM.msgsm610=msgsm32.acm Voila! I hope this helps any of you having trouble with getting this working, also make sure to keep an eye out, the guys who develop Vent are working on a Linux client! Enjoy.

Adding Phrases Getting started I am now going to show u how to install wc3banlist 3.0 and then patch it to wc3banlist 3.1 beta. Firstly, download http://app2.eurobattle.net/download/index.php?id=92. It contains banlist 3.0 and 3.1. Install Wc3Banlist 3.0 (I don't have to go into details of installing, i know you guys can handle a simple installation) Now after u finish installing wc3banlist 3.0, extract Banlist 3.1 content in the winrar achieve to your wc3banlist directory. Overwrite when it ask you to confirm. The wc3banlist directory is located usually in C:\Program Files\WC3Banlist. After u have succesfully extracted WC3Banlist 3.1 beta (build 210) to your wc3banlist directory, you have finished installing. Country Checking Launch Wc3banlist by clicking on its icon on your desktop. It should look like this, regardless of different versions. After u have successfully launch Wc3banlist, now launch THE FROZEN THRONE. Connect to any BattleNet Server, join any game in BattleNet. Once u have joined a game it should look like this. Type /fromall Wait for 2s, then press and hold Ctrl on your keyboard, and then press v. A list of people and their country in game will appear at your typing bar. For example: confinists: (SG), toy016: (AU), pasu: (SG), vteckui: (TW), Alkhaleed: (SG), iNeverLied.: (JP), ryoDK: (SG), yontboy: (US). Press enter on your keyboard and it will appear as chat for everyone in game to see. Thats all for country checking! Ping Checking Launch Wc3banlist by clicking on its icon on your desktop. It should look like this, regardless of different versions. After u have successfully launch Wc3banlist, now launch THE FROZEN THRONE. Connect to any BattleNet Server, join any game in BattleNet. Once u have joined a game it should look like this. Type /Pingall Wait for 2s, then press and hold Ctrl on your keyboard, and then press v. A list of people and their Ping in game will appear at your typing bar. For example: leO.5ePhiRotH: 16 ms, Sagittarius-Hgg: 22 ms, LiBrA.NooBBOB: 201 ms, 2times2: t/o, HaRd***BoyZ: t/o Press enter on your keyboard and it will appear as chat for everyone in game to see. Thats all for Ping checking! Side note for Ping: Ping determines if a player will lag or not By looking at a Ping number, the lower the better it is, For example 20 ms is better than 150 ms. Once someone has 50ms or above they might experience game stuttering or delay when moving units in game. Banlisting leavers When someone leaves during a game starting countdown or during game playing. You can ban on your own banlist. There is a few simple ways of banning people, and i am gona list 2 of it. 1st way is to immediately type "/banlast" when someone leaves. Wc3banlist will automatically ban the last leaver with a comment/keyword leaver. 2nd way is to type /ban [insert name here] [insert comment here] For example: /ban SaMmM leaver Custom comments In wc3banlist, click on Preferences Tab and then click on Custom comments in the left side. Click on the + button and type in Leaver in the box that pops up. http://img403.imageshack.us/img403/1723/leaverkeywordhq6.jpg After u have type leaver press ok. Type this into the blank box beside the + and - button: leaver after $gametime ($ratio) on $realm [($year-$month-$day)] - $gametitle So now whenever u ban someone in game, with the command "/ban SaMmM leaver" or "/banlast" Then SaMmM will be banned with the comment "SaMmM is a leaver after 00:14:35 (5v4*) on Lordaeron [(2007-02-17)] - dota sg ap! 5v5 net" Of cause u can be creative and use custom comments for other uses, go figure it! Auto refresher In wc3banlist, click on the preferences tab and then click on miscellaneous on the left side. Tick the checkbox "Enable automatic game refresh" U can also set the interval for auto refreshing with the slider with a minimum of 10s and maximum of 60s. Side note: Auto refresh only works for game host, and is only available for wc3banlist 3.1beta version. Approved host and Global banning When you play on Battle.net, many hosts and people threaten to ban u globally. Its a empty threat, as only approved host can ban people globally. Even if a approved host bans you, you are not actually globally banned! People will have to download the approved host's bans to know that you are banned. When you are banned by wc3banlist, only your username will be logged by the banlist. Your IP address will not be logged. So if someone says he is gona ban you by your IP, he is lying. Here is a list of approved host: (Image taken from www.banlist.nl[/url]) I do not encourage leavers and sore losers, i hope nobody will become bigger losers and leavers after reading this section.

Screen Capture Software - Take a screenshot with the press of a key! There's no need to paste into a paint program every time you want a new shot. Your screen captures are automatically named and timestamped. Realtime Video Capture Software - Have you ever wanted to record video while playing your favourite game? Come join the Machinima revolution! Throw away the VCR, forget about using a DV cam, game recording has never been this easy! Fraps can capture audio and video up to 2560x1600 with custom frame rates from 10 to 100 frames per second! [CENTER][b]General Questions[/b] [img]http://www.fraps.com/images/general.gif[/img][/CENTER] [B][CENTER]What do the options do?[/CENTER][/B] Selecting "Start Fraps minimized" will hide the Fraps dialog screen when you launch the program. Fraps can still be accessed through the icon in the system tray. Selecting "Fraps window always on top" will ensure the program window remains visible even when switching to another application. This option has no effect if Fraps has been minimized to the system tray. If you'd like Fraps to be loaded when you turn on your machine enable the "Run Fraps when Windows starts" option. Fraps also supports separate LCD screens on keyboards such as the Logitech® G15™. If you have a supported keyboard you will see the option to "Display status on keyboard LCD". Enabling this option will allow you to see FPS graphs and other identifiers on the keyboard while playing your games. If you have a G15 but do not see this option then you may need to install the latest G15 drivers available from Logitech's website. [CENTER][b]FPS (Frames Per Second)[/b] [img]http://www.fraps.com/images/fps.gif[/img] [b]What do the options do?[/b][/CENTER] The Overlay Display Hotkey lets you assign a button that will toggle the frame rate counter between the four corners and off. To change the Hotkey, click in the box and type a new key to be assigned this function. Clicking Disable will stop the Hotkey from having any effect. The Benchmarking Hotkey lets you assign a button that can be used to determine the average frame rate between any two points in a game. To change the Hotkey, click in the box and type a new key to be assigned this function. Clicking Disable will stop the Hotkey from having any effect. The overlay corner indicates the region of the screen that the framerate counter will be displayed in. Choose a corner that doesn't obstruct important information in the game's display. If you select Disabled the frame rate counter will not be displayed on screen. Selecting "Only update overlay once a second" will only change the frame rate counter once a second. Selecting "Save frame rate to file each second" will output the frame rate once a second to the file FRAPSSEC.TXT in your Fraps directory. This option is deprecated and has been removed in Fraps 2.7.0. Use the detailed FPS statistics option to get individual CSV files for each benchmark run. The "Stop benchmark automatically" option allows you to specify a fixed duration for the benchmark. Once the number of seconds has elapsed the benchmark will automatically stop and the results will be written to disk. Finally, detailed benchmark statistics can also be saved to disk. These are written in standard CSV files that can be imported directly into a spreadsheet. All files are automatically named/timestamped and saved in the benchmarks subdirectory. Currently there are 3 files written for each benchmark when this option is enabled: * FPS - Contains the frame rate value for each second of the benchmark * frametimes - Contains the time (in milliseconds) of every frame that was rendered in the benchmark * minmaxavg - Contains the total frame count, benchmark duration, minimum, maximum, and average frame rate values. [b]What is the maximum framerate Fraps will show?[/b] Fraps will show a maximum framerate of 9999 fps on screen. If you need to know precise framerates above this you must use benchmarking and find out the value from FRAPSLOG.TXT, or from the detailed statistics (if you have this option enabled). Why doesn’t Fraps show above 30fps, 60fps, 75 fps (or any other framerate) in my game? This can be due to several reasons. Many games have internal limits that prevent them rendering faster than a certain framerate. In some cases this can mean they are locked at a maximum framerate of only 30fps. Another possibility is that you have Vsync enabled. Vsync is used to synchronise the output of your graphics card with the display of your monitor. When your graphics card has finished rendering the next frame it waits for the monitor to finish displaying the current one before switching to the new one. This means that the maximum framerate you can obtain will be equal to the refresh rate of your monitor (which is usually 60hz, 75hz, 85hz, or 100hz). If you disable Vsync then your graphics card will continuously render without waiting for the last frame to be displayed in its entirety. With fast graphics cards this means that your monitor may switch to a new frame halfway down the screen. This effect is known as tearing as there appears to be a visible line separating two different halves. Due to this, you should generally leave Vsync enabled except when benchmarking. [CENTER][b]Screen Capture Questions[/b] [img]http://www.fraps.com/images/screenshots.gif[/img] [b]What do the options do?[/b][/CENTER] You can select the folder where Fraps will store all screenshots in. By default this folder is the same as the directory you installed Fraps into, but you can customise it to save anywhere on your disk. Click the Change button to select a new folder, or the View button to show the current contents of the folder. The Screen Capture Hotkey lets you assign a button that will take a screenshot of the game screen. To change the Hotkey, click in the box and type a new key to be assigned this function. Clicking Disable will stop the Hotkey from having any effect. Screenshots can be saved in Windows Bitmap (BMP), JPEG (JPG), Portable Network Graphics (PNG), or Targa (TGA) format. Selecting "Include frame rate overlay on screenshots" will include the Fraps frame rate counter on your screenshots. If the frame rate overlay is disabled, no counter will be saved on your screenshots. [b]What is the maximum resolution supported by the screen capture?[/b] Screenshots can be taken in games running at resolutions up to 2560x1600. [CENTER][b]Video Capture Questions[/b] [img]http://www.fraps.com/images/movies.gif[/img] [b]What do the options do?[/b][/CENTER] You can select the folder where Fraps will store all movies in. By default this folder is the same as the directory you installed Fraps into, but you can customise it to save anywhere on your disk. Click the Change button to select a new folder, or the View button to show the current contents of the folder. The Video Capture Hotkey lets you assign a button that will record movies of the game. To change the Hotkey, click in the box and type a new key to be assigned this function. Clicking Disable will stop the Hotkey from having any effect. Choosing Half-size will store the movie at half the resolution of the game screen. Full-size will store the movie at the same resolution as the game screen up to 1152x864. You can choose the frame rate of the output movie from 25fps, 30fps, 50fps, 60fps, or a custom value up to 100fps. Higher values result in smoother playback but will increase the file size. Some video editing programs will treat movies recorded at 25fps as PAL, and those captured at 29.97/30fps as NTSC. Selecting "Record Sound" will save the game audio along with the video. You can disable this option if you are planning to add your own sound to the video. When you select "Detect best sound input" Fraps will determine the best input to record the game sound on. If you choose "Use Windows input" the default Windows recording input will be used. The Windows input may not capture all of the game sounds, so you should generally let Fraps detect the input unless you want to capture sound from an external source. [b]How do I record a movie while running a game?[/b] First select the target framerate for the movie, which indicates how many frames will be included in the movie each second. You can currently choose from 25, 30, 50 or 60 fps. In the game press the Video Capture Hotkey (F9) when you want to start recording. While recording the frame rate counter will turn red. When you want to end your movie, press the button again to stop recording. You will now find the movie saved in your default folder. [b]Why do I get a source format error when I try to compress with DIVX?[/b] Divx6 places restrictions on the video resolution for many of its profiles and this may cause an error when handling large Fraps videos. In Virtualdub you can go to the Divx codec configuration screen and set it to use the "Unconstrained Profile". This will allow you to encode movies of any resolution and won't generate the source format error. [b]How can I adjust the volume of the sound that is recorded?[/b] You must configure the volume through the "Sounds and Audio Devices" item in the Control Panel. Use the following steps: * Click on the Control Panel and select Sounds And Audio. * Click on the Audio tab. * Find the Sound Recording device and click Volume. * Adjust the volume for the Input that Fraps is recording from. This is usually named "What U Hear", "Record Master", or "Stereo Mixer". If you can't see the correct Input on screen you may need to enable it by clicking on Properties in the menu and ensuring all Inputs have a check beside their name. Where can I find the custom Fraps FPS1 codec? The Fraps codec (FPS1) is put on the system when you install Fraps. If you've reinstalled Windows you will also need to reinstall Fraps in order to play back your movies. Please keep in mind that if you want to give your raw footage to another person they will also need to have Fraps installed.
