VBUBN2 3.0.0 and VBUBNS 1.4 // SdkkahOct 26, 2001, 10:54pm
Hi all, I just released version 3.0.0 of the VBUBN2 ActiveX control and
version 1.4 of the VBUBN Server. All previous bugs and problems have been resolved in this release, and some cool new stuff as been added... one of the coolest new features is the status checking system that lets you easily check if a person is online or not , and a feature to get a list over the people connected to the server. At the moment there is a limit of 11000 connections per session, this number is likely to change in future versions. A lot of internal handling has been rewritten and some cosmetic issues have also been addresed. Get it now, at http://home.no.net/kahbot/vbubn.html Also, a documentation will be released tommorow :-)) ---What the heck is VBUBN you ask... VBUBN stands for Visual Basic Universal Bot Network, and is a system that enables bots to communicate very easily without a lot of code. It's made out of two components, one ActiveX control that should enable development on any Windows ActiveX supporting platform and a server that the ActiveX control connects to. At the moment VBUBN is based on a system with conversation in one space (a single "room"), instead of channels. It is aimed at helping AW bot developers in developing advanced networked bot systems. A UNIX version will come sometime in the future. KAH PS. it is recommended that you set your firewall to close ports 23 through 25 if running the VBUBN Server, which will deny telnet to connect. Note that this may cause problems on Windows 2000 and XP. kahOct 27, 2001, 10:41pm
