Re: Is anyone still playing C4???
OK Dad, I got the goggles out and the stick loaded. Do you have EXP installed ? Cause if you do, I want to host a custom map ;-). One that has NOT been uploaded. I also want to discuss a couple things with you, so if you have a chat program, let me know.
Re: Is anyone still playing C4???
I could perhaps be tempted to fire it up in the next week or so, i should still own it via steam, i think.
Also, blue, its not letting me edit my posts to fix typos, and delaying me 5 mins between posts, are these intended, or carry overs from when the site was online but in defunkt mode so bots couldnt trash it?
Re: Is anyone still playing C4???
Hi Blue, both servers are running XP Pro, No problems to host custom map except one:rolleyes: I would need help with doing so and for the chat program I don't have one installed at this time on my new computer, I do still have yahoo messenger.

Umm... yes and yes... but not directed at you. As you are aware, editing posts is a retroactive option. A weak password becomes a compromised account and then we could have every one of their posts wiped or deleted. The long and short of it is that the damage to the DB was extensive.. even mothballing the site didn't stop it. Due to the attack, the server itself has been tweaked with much tighter mod_security rules. Even I have to edit some things on my server here and upload directly to the DB. I will turn down the time between posts tomorrow, but the rest will be a little slower coming online. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. It's good to see you bud.
Re: Is anyone still playing C4???
I have an intrusion defense system specifically built for php web systems. Its also intended to run on linux, tho it will work on windows too. would require no changes to the vbulletin system, but would take a huge bite out of bot traffic, and drive by exploit bots. As long as your willing to heed the do not distribute clause i could pass you a copy of it, i own the intellectual rights to it. It was designed to defend a php social networking site from everything imaginable. 5 years of development into it atm.

BTW, im a cyber security engineer these days. All that hacking in C4 paid off it seems, and i have the credentials to prove it. Good times.

Re: Is anyone still playing C4???
Hi Blue,
I was thinking of buying a set of V.R. goggles and I noticed you mentioning that you have a set,
do work with C4?
DAD.... :old:
Re: Is anyone still playing C4???
Well, since I've been flying few of the DJI Drones the last couple of years, I decided to get the mavic and the DJI goggles. Using an HDMI cable off one of the 970's to the goggles. It's a cool experience for C4, but the game isn't really optimized for it. There is no 'free look' mode (where you move your head and your view adjusts with it) that I can find. This may not be true with newer games, I can't really say. I do know that with the mavic, you can fly a path, but look around by simply turning and tilting your head.
:stupid2: :wut: :stupid:
Re: Is anyone still playing C4???
:eagerness: Just an idea, as l use my trackball/mouse for my pipper too aim with in 'free look' mode, can you see if you can config your goggles ( viewer ) too work as your mouse:onthego:.

I don't believe that is an option. The goggles are essentially the monitor plugged into one of my graphics cards - not a peripheral device. If I remember correctly, when you are tracking with your mouse, you are also turning the aircraft. That is not what I want to do. I'd prefer to be going one way and looking another.

Re: Is anyone still playing C4???
Hay Blue,
Will you be hosting a server on a 24/7 base with those maps I hope?:beguiled:
Re: Is anyone still playing C4???
I have a box in the shop that may be ideal to host on - but not play on. I'll look into it this weekend.
Re: Is anyone still playing C4???
Will it host from a vmware esxi instance? if so i have a little extra space floating around that could be left on.
Re: Is anyone still playing C4???
It's a nice little Win7 box I bought as a server to monitor my cameras. Wasn't really ideal for video surveillance (I have quite a few cameras on the property), so I replaced it. All of that equipment has backup power and communication - something I'm not going to do with this server. I'm going to play with it this weekend, and see what it will do. I'll keep your offer in mind, thanks.
