Bungie sent me here.....

Post by {C#W}Megan »

I am looking for help in modding the admin controls for Halo PC 1.07.

We run 5 servers that we try and keep clean for the kids that like to play Halo online. The problem we have is with players that come into the servers and try and strike up sexual conversations with the young players, stalk the female players and those that use profanity.

Normally we warn them, then kick them, then ban them if the behavior continues. Bt, there are some players that know that if they cuss (or whatever) and quit before we can use RCON to ban them, that they can continue to harass the young players on our servers. They just chg screen names and come back and do it again.

What we need is a way to capture the info that RCON uses to ban a player every time a player logs into the server. Then, we could use that info to ban a player (by adding it to the banned file). This info includes the player's CD serial number, IP address and maybe name.

It would be good if this information were captured to a file and saved for 24-48 hours before being automatically purged. And, if it is possible, I'd also like the ability to record each user's text messages in this file. Maybe it can do a capture for each game (player ban info and text msgs).

I have aqsked at Bungie's ste for hlp with this mod. The forum admin there sent me here.

Is there anyone that has the skills to pull this off for us? I'd even be willing to pay for it's development.

So you need a program to capture the (PLAYERS) info and ban it for a peroid of time preselected right?

It is simple to get the info to bann them even if they change their ip; the hard part is getting a program to do it. I might be able to do some work on this. If you would like to give me an email or im me on aim or msn so we can talk more. My screen name is the same BehemothPaktu for aim [email protected] for msn and Yahoo BehemothPaktu.

I would be glad to help you keep these people out for your server!

Thanks,
BehemothPaktu

I can do c++ C# and java which i know it will be needed.

Yeah, That is not a problem. Please send me an email on what you want and when you need it and we can talk about this some more. [email protected] is the place to send you email.

Thanks.

Bungie honestly cant take care of it themselves? It seems pretty easy, so I'll talk to a couple friends tomorrow and see if we can't rig something up. Together we know pretty much all useful languages and even a few pointless ones, but we'll probably work it all out in C# because there are elements of both c++ and java.

E-mail me at [email protected] with specifications and I'll be sure to get back to you within a couple days.

No. They sent me here (after I asked them to help with the problem) to find a developer that would help us solve this issue.

I also asked Gearbox (the original programmers) but they said that most of the Halo PC team had moved on and there were really no resources to devote to the problem.

At least they agreed it was a problem.....
