Hi .. fwiw
(Hambot 3.3 source with AWSdk 4.1 build 61)
Using VS2005 pro, These changes allow Hambot ver3.3 source to compile, link,
and create a working Release-ver, that will connect & run in AW4.1 (w/o
getting the errors related to ATL & CTime)
This method won't create a Debug-ver, due showing an unresolved external.

uhhhh, nope i dont know programming, just experimenting here but ...
this must have worked before in older c++ ver (VS98) & linking source with
aw 3.x sdk, ... but now with c++ ver8 (VS-2005 pro) , linking same source
with aw sdk 41 build 61, this "struct" line errors. (botdlg.ccp)
CString sTemp;
CString sNewBuffer;
int i, iOffset;
int iLen = sSource.GetLength();
CTime xTime = CTime::GetCurrentTime();
CTimeSpan xVRTOffset(0,2,0,0); // 2 hours offset from GMT
xTime -= xVRTOffset;
-> struct tm *xpTime = xTime.GetGmtTm();
char *spDest = sNewBuffer.GetBuffer(500);
// additional "if" , "for", "switch" , "case", stuff omited here
to save space
* linking error shows- error c2660: 'ATL::CTime::GetGmtTm' : function
does not take 0 arguments
ookay, like what arguments? ideas?
(using the 90 day trial IMG of VS2005 pro, and the msdn part of IMG has bad
files & wont install ,,, sure, i expected 2.7gig to dnload correctly, lol)
ok, experimenting & changing line to ...
struct tm *xpTime = xTime.GetGmtTm(0);
then at least project compiles / links / produces an exe wich runs, opens
main window, gets dns conversion for AW host name, but then errors after
selecting a script file to start a bot, "unknown error" , (debug ver of the
exe opens / runs same & says debug assertion failed and ref's to ATL &
cTime)
any other value or char within the ( ) causes linking error , so far.

<scooter chuckles> mine got up to 16 million handles just a little bit
ago, (the reg 949 ver), took almost 5 mins to shut AW down.
i did mannage to save the procexplorer texts for aw listing all the threads,
(one befor the leak, and one after it started leaking). also a couple of
screen shots of AW with TM performance screen . Whew!!
installing the 949c now, hope that works

For people that were setting up 3.6's connection set up window, as via Proxy
& entering proxy and port. How do they get that to work now?
I tried setting it up for proxy , leaving the "use password" box unchecked,
but it seems to auto-check the "use Password" check box when you press
Continue button. (and doesnt connect with blank Proxy username & password).

ok .... hummm, we experimented n got aw41 connecting, manually setting
the connection items for connection in the ini . (bypass's the start up
connection config window that way)

try this just to see if it makes the AV respond better (or diff) ...
set the performance tab settings in options -
"keep frame rate at or near" = 30
"don't let vis fall below" = 30 (or what you want min vis to be)
"limit frame rate to a max of about" = 30
then set Visibility to "Float" as setting Viz to a value over-rides those
fps settings (if i understand correctly).

Aside from whether i'd agree or not agree ...
You're presenting statements and conclusions as if they were fact, when
infact they are assumption, unsubstantiated speculation, and personal bias.
You offer conclusions as if they are derived from your statements, when in
fact the conclusions are actually based on facts not yet entered into
evidence.
We already have a feature thats better than blank-a-word, its called Mute.
CA already ejects people that digress with individual undesired words, and
"volenteer" GK's/PK's to deal with disruptive behavour. The feature would
use up valuable resources, which are best used for visually enhansing AW.
..Scooter
imho: blank-a-word or similiar meerly reinforces the "see so evil, hear no
evil ...", (the "lets look away, not get envolved, pretend its not
happening; we're afraid to be confrontational, don't confront the Evil
Doers"), mentality. It does nothing positive, except allow you to become an
inhouse censor.

Plus each pic overwrites the previous pic. So for now, move, copy, or
rename a pic before snaping the next one. (as time permits, later they
will likely make the pics sequencially number)
