Re: Passwords and MD5 encryption query... As of md5 yes it is reversible ;) Also as HD says, you have faster libs, like sha1 and sha256 (the given examples), though you can keep the md5 and make it practically "irreversible" using one or two salt's (random keys to add to md5 encryption to make it harder to read) an example: Regular encryption seen on MCC Password = Password (MD5 = dc647eb65e6711e155375218212b3964)   Salted using a second parameter (email addy) Password = Password (MD5 = dc647eb65e6711e155375218212b3964) Email = [email="[email protected]"][email protected][/email] Result: md5("[email protected]"."Password") Result hash: 5b0181c91ed60b3dcbf03b0f6ba61d77   As you can see a completly different result, and the salt "key" (email addy) becomes basicly an unique key to every single user as there are no 2 equal email addy's. Though you can expand this to basicly what you want, or even use an encryption that you create (these are always the best to use)

Re: Hacking @ MrGi: Hopefully by now you have already ready all the previous posts, and there are 2 posts (Alabama's and Haunted) that reflect things HOW THEY SHOULD BE. As an example... i found on a game, of one of CE's users, a quite nice flaw, even with code totally patched out and for certain 90% secured, what did i do? talked to the owner on the very moment i found it. I could ruined the game? sure i could, though i didn't. Also, as HD said, IF someone finds an exploit on a game of mine, i would thank that person, for showing me that i still had flaws that needed fixing. Bitching about it is absolutely childdish. If you set up an online game without any knowledge, well shame on you if don't hire someone to atleast give you a hand if/when these situations happen, as it will be most likely to happen for the amount of script kiddies floating around these games. Also, you say... "people like you", so i assume you know me and what i do. If that is the situation, well you don't know me at all. I work for one of the top 3 IT related companies in the world and the amount of people around that know which one is i can count them with my hand fingers. This is just to say that i do not have time nor patience to deal with exploitable games nor to "go off and ruin other people's games". People put a lot of effort you say? since i joined these forums, i've seen games popping more than rabbits, with people that even don't have a clue of what an IP address is, and you tell me that "hackers" (as you call them) have to be lenient with them? I say... people that does this... is simply asking for it! No more no less. I have had in the past a few games public facing, and only my first had problems. Did i gave up? did i cried like a baby? why should i? it only gave me more ways to dealt with these situations. One other thing you said made me laugh quite a bit... "And not have learned the full exploits". Learn exploits? what for? to become yet another script kiddie? Or do you need to learn to exploit to learn to code in a proper manner? I could point you a few 101's on beginner's security yet google is far more smart than me as he knows not a few but prolly a few thousands of those. Even when you placed the damn definition of an hacker i told you you were wrong, the least you could've done was... google it, get the facts and then talk (again)

Re: Hacking @ MrGi, yet the definition of "Hacker" is poorly copied and fairly incomplete, you showed not an hacker way of doing things but a Cracker. Hackers hacking games? i really don't think so. Crackers "hacking" games? Definetly. Script kiddies "hacking" games? More than definetly. The point of your thread? To give a warn? i agree with that, yet state the facts right. The big picture? Hackers do not destroy/harm systems period, yet you refered as they did, the least you could've done was to talk about the sub-cultures under hacking, and then yes make a thread about it! Just my 0.02 cents.

Re: How much bandwidth does your game use?   hmmm, i was expecting a bit much more! seems a lot of tunning made?

Re: Help look at line 42

Re: Help fix line 46 ?

Re: does anyone know how to sort this   let me say something... $ir[] comes from a SELECT * ... my point... if it's there... it is selected, what might be happening as jrPOINTS is present on the DB is jrPOINTS is not JOINED to the $ir query.

Re: does anyone know how to sort this let me guess... jrPOINTS doesn't exist on users table or it's empty...

Re: Mccodes Lite Userstats IQ Bug hmmm damn! no one saw it lol good catch codestryke

Re: Mccodes Lite Userstats IQ Bug at a quick glance... you should declare these functions   $money=rand(1,60); /*--- Value of money to be found min 1 max 60 ---*/ $money2=(30); /*--- extra money table ---*/ $crys=rand(0,0); /*--- crystals min 0 max 0 --- */ $hosp=rand(1,20); /*--- hosp time between 1 mins and 20 mins ---*/ $jail=rand(1,20); /*--- Jail time between 1 mins and 20 mins ---*/ $will=rand(3,15); /*--- slack between 1 and 10 ---*/ $energy=rand(1,2); /*--- extra energy table 1% - 2% energy gain or loss---*/ $IQ=rand(1,2); /*---IQ 1 to 2 points ---*/ $hp=rand(1,10); /*--- Hitpoints 1 - 10 ---*/ $brave=rand(1,3); /*--- Mojo 1 - 3 points ---*/   Only when updating the users on the mysql_query() Last elseif() (search 24) should be else() if($ir['hosp'] >0) can be if ($ir['hosp']) same applies to jail try using switch() and avoid all those if/elseif/else statements, As of the initial problem, as i said before and with the code at sight... there is no reason for it to not be working. Only after testing the code i could go deeper, though i'm prolly sure that by the time i am capable to test it, someone already has done the same :)

Re: Doubling in game...? replying to a problem that was posted over 6 month ago... that is not a goodie! :) if i kept with an issue for that time, i would've prolly rewritten all the code to make it work as it should

Re: Mccodes Lite Userstats IQ Bug prolly the best option to do, as you might have something there that somehow locks the query, no idea what as every single post in here, your included should've work without any issues. Also taking your first post, there is no bug with Lite on that matter. I am using Lite as well, though an extremelly moded version

Re: Mccodes Lite Userstats IQ Bug @ Agon $conn = mysql_query("UPDATE users SET IQ=IQ+$IQ WHERE userid=$userid",$c); This will be enough to run over to every user

Re: Access denied for user   Probably GV has more than 1 server...

Re: Access denied for user Unfortunatelly, that is not an uncommon error, generally caused with persitent connections that fulfill the server queues, causing these type of effects as there are no available slots to new connections. It is far better to use open and close connections after each operation rather than keeping them always open (as most people do). Though this will generate another "issue". More stress on the database as db calls will increase exponentially...

Re: Access denied for user i wouldn't blame the host... i've seen quite decent hosts with similar problems and that usually is not hosts fault! there are a few tweaks you can do, though that might not solve the problem for good but minimize the situation.

Re: Gangs with same names $dumbcheck = mysql_query("SELECT `gangNAME` FROM `gangs` WHERE `gangNAME` = '{$name}'"); if (mysql_num_rows($dumbcheck)) { echo "no dupped gang names"; exit } try something along these lines and it might do the trick, place inside the if(isset($_POST['name']))

Re: Access denied for user as you say... "every now and then" most likely... server problems

Re: How good CronWerks/Cronus is   Well, IF that was true, i WOULDN'T kept posting, even your last PM to me (which by the way was once more a stupid excuse) you were trying to say IT worked, thing that i never said it didn't, WHAT i did say was that it didn't worked with SOME carriers and that you SHOULD at least deliver a list where it did/doesn't work. Even with this you started bitching that i was always flaming your posts. "Simple as that."
