As far as I know...

In the .lib, .dll, and .h files that are included in the SDK download...
Many of those defnitions are not actully available to the SDK. Using the
example you gave.. AW_CONTACT_NUMBER is not a attribute that would be
available to any bot. Their counterparts may not be either.. And I wouldn't
expect those to be documented..

Then again, with the introduction of AFK mode, handle_contact_state makes
sense... I guess you'll have to ask 999 about it.

Reading this post.. It became a little confusing which build is which.

Does anyone keep track of which builds come out when and the files that go
along with them?

I've never found such a place, so I think I'll dedicate a page on my
website. I'm interested in finding copies of all the aw releases of the AW
browser, admin tool and world server. If you have one of these saved
somewhere, please e-mail it to me with an appropriate description of what it
is.

Thanks,
Jeremy

That looks a little messy. What's up with all the structs? I guess it just
looks weird because it's the old C syntax...

make a large hill... (make it pretty steep... ) It has to use about 3 cells
of terrain going up. Make one of them a hole by clicking the "hole" checkbox
after right clicking on your terrain cell. Then pace some objects under the
terrain to make a cave. Ugly... but it works.

By "imposter" you mean you're getting an error code that doesn't show up
in the SDK error codes list?

I have a sneaking suspicion that those error code tables aren't getting
updated as often as they should (or not at all)...

We've also come to the conclusion that some error codes are passed
though the brower from 3rd part code, such as the microsoft Internet
Explorer code that handles the HTTP requests for download objects,
textures, sounds, and avatars.

Basically, if it's not in the SDK error code tables, you're SOL. YOu can
try e-mailing support at activeworlds.com, I'm not sure if they'll really
be of any help on this matter though.

Maybe I should spill the beans... But during some chat with Will (999),
he mentioned a new linux world server that was a total rewrite of the
first, including support for MySQL. I'm not sure about any of the
details, or any estimated release date. He just said he had been working
on rewriting the server and that it supported MySQL.

I've heard that this *can* be done, given enough determination and a
little will-power.

Unfortunatly, there isn't a good how-to doc, or any documentation for
that matter, specificly for setting up the AW browser on linux.

The only place I know to point you is to the WinE (the emulator chrispeg
already mentioned) site. You should be able to find everything you need
to know about setting up WinE at http://www.winehq.com/. You can then
setup AW from there.

If you get it to work, try to document what you do or keep a record and
report back on your success. :-)

G'luck :-)

Regards,
Jeremy

Any possibility of that for 4.1?

Searched this ng, and didn't turn up anything in the subject lines.

A quick google search turned up this page:

In this example AW_OBJECT_NUMBER is set to a random number before adding

Sounds interesting, but you should really code it in ANSI standard C++
instead of proprietary .NET. Standard C++ will be much more useful to
many more people who are not windows/microsoft-centric.

[View Quote] From my understanding, ANSI C++ is C#, but C# isn't ANSI C++...

In other words, the C#.NET compiler should compile standard ANSI C++
just fine, but the ANSI C++ compiler will choke on C#.

I admit, I'm not a M$ kinda guy, and thus I'm not familiar with C#...
So, don't quote me on that.

I'm sure Strike will be able to correct me if I'm wrong....

I'm with Grimble, as this is really confusing. However, I'm going to do my
best to clarify what I think is the answer to your question.....

The question was rather confusing sounding, but the example was clearer...so
I'll use it.

>For example aw_url_send just lets me put
>in the url, but I need to be able to send a variable (such as to an ASP
>page) so that a slightly different page could be opened depending on the
>variable.

If I understand correctly... You want the bot to send a URL to the client,
along with a variable. The variable will determine which page will be
displayed, or can just fill in certain parts.

This could be done with CGI or ASP (just as faber suggested). Your bot
would send the url to the client, the url would point to the script. (I
would use CGI/PERL) The script would parse the input, and output a page, or
replace items in a template with inputted values.
I have all the parts to the script, and I could put one together for you
relatively quickly.

If I'm totally off, let me know... But I think that clarifies what Faber was
saying...

You would have to use one *huge* url send... in the format...
http://www.yoursite.com/somescript.cgi?var1=data1&var2=data2&var3=data3

<path to script><script name>? [key1] = [value1] & [key2] = [value2]

As you can see, it takes the use of many name/value pairs...
The script can split this long URL into intelligible chunks, and test the
values to take the proper course of action....

There may actually be a limit to how much information you can pass. You
could consider writing the information to a file, and having the script
retrieve it to display the page. This is a lot more complex a task
though....

I would work with you to write this script.... e-mail or telegram me if
you're interested.... (I couldn't start immediately, I'm still working on
the new AW Webring script....)

This problem is very simple to solve. You couldn't have 2 scripts trying to
read and write to the same file, at the same time.... That would produce
hellish results.

Use a random number, or an icriminted index #, as the file name. This
prevents the script from corrupting its self. However, there is still a
rare chance that you could (with precise timeing and a lot of luck) get the
same random # or an index # that hasn't been incrimented. To deal with this
I use (in perl at least..) file locks ( flock() ) to prevent any other
instenation of the script from using the file....You can check for a file
lock. If it's locked, there's a problem.. You can either deal with it by
trying a different file name, or by simply exiting with an error message and
letting the user retry the script.

Would be simpler to use server logs.. that is, if you have access to them.
However, any decent host should give you that access...

This would be very easy to do under Linux, given a server regestry and a
propdump of the area. Make a list of objects in the yard (extracted from the
propdump) and make a list of objs. on the path (from the regestry) and
compare with diff.Get me those two things, and I'd be happy to give you the
list of objs that are missing.

What the hell are you talking about? The passwords are encrypted every step
of the way. The only way to get them is with brute for cracking (a program
to guess the password). Which, takes forever unless you have a
supercomputer. Needless to say, someone didn't get 53 of them by that
method. It takes an ungodly amount of time just to get one.

That only leaves a few other options. First, what you're saying is totally
false. Second, the password was intercepted between the world server and
client, or vice versa. The password must be sent from the world server to
the client, so the client can unzip the rwx files. This, however, is also
encrypted.... The only other way is if someone was actully good enough to
compromise a few servers and get an atdump. But I presume even *that* stores
the password encrypted...

Next time, make sure something is at least *reasonable* before you
post.......
