iBotPeaches

Ah fixed a bad cache problem. Seems the ETag filled on general php output requests causes the browser to send the ETag back during request then matches the cache instead of asking for new data. So fixed that. You'll have to wait till the cache manually dies out before it fixes itself. Which will take 1-2 hours.

On a roll today. APC doesn't like talking to mod_ruid2. The shared cache /dirs doesn't give the APC the ability to associate those /dir among users, so it re-creates another 32M cache for each child of apache. If every user is allowed 3 apache process, thats a lot of wasted memory. APC didn't have support for it, so I dropped it in favour for xcache. xcache seems to handling well with a static 48MB dir size and 2MB for vars. Will have to monitor it along with sphinx for the next couple of weeks, but this method should keep all my sites on low use and a tad bit faster.

Someone asked me for the Phantom Mappack. So I searched for it on our site, and it didn't even pop up in the results. So I went to Google and searched "iBotModz Phantom Mappack" and it came right up. Point being, our search system sucked. We now run Sphinx. A full-text no limit char search engine. The delta cache is updated every 5 minutes, and the frozen cache (for edited posts) is updated nightly at 4am. This reduces the load on mySQL and makes searching faster.

hello Do you hack xboxes?

Yeah so members not as smart as real plugin contributors can push their modified plugins and higher entities then on some website / application can approve/deny the revision. To help unify all plugins. One problem with H3/ODST/Reach is the plugin distrubution. You can go to Remenant mods and find some plugins or XboxChaos or S7. Hell, some plugins are more mapped in some areas on XC then Remanant. Some people spend time researching what is already done. A simple revision control could fix this. Note saying is either said than done. I only said this because I use Gerrit & GIT daily for Android, but I don't know the simplicity of wrapping something like that into Assembly, but I will say I think it will aid in grouping the community together if their changes go to a central repo where they can all gather for approvals. EX (1 - 4 verifications, +1 approval from an admin). Think about Entity & Halo 2. People updated it from 1.3 Beta -> 2.1.7 all seperately. Troy finally got it on GIT at v2.0.0 and that melded the development for it, but it was far too late. Just an idea. I wrote a lot.

holy shit. Theres like 6 of us here lol.

How are plugins handled? Is there version control? Or some easy system for the community to interact with them.

You are bringing the community back. I applaud you for that. I have trust that you guys will bring this community back. Imagine Halomods in prime Halo 2. Imagine the community now. People paying for shit? lol. Bringing back the good ole days. Let me know if you need anything.

Yeah wish I lived on campus again. Though, guess who lives in Kansas? Where Google Fiber is coming? Back off bitches. I'll have 1gb soon.

Thanks, just got home. Guess I don't need to. Sent from MIUIAndroid Phone.

My xbox is at my apartment. I'm won't be there for another 8ish hours.

I guess I'll just upload my DLLs and XEX. Don't really remember all my debugging steps for this kind of stuff.

Is this halo 3 or halo odst disc 2? Sent from MIUIAndroid Phone.

Did you patch the DLLs? I assume you did the H3Unlock part, but for 360 you need to patch all DLLs to run on unsigned boxes.

Where did I Download Zone Alarm too?

Anyone else think those prometheans look like some random transformers? They really changed the feel and redid the enemies this time around. Sent from MIUIAndroid Phone.

Yelo does that. I forgot the config to disable it. Its been too long.

There hasn't been a program update in 2 years. So if you downloaded the newest version, thats the most up to date. As for the programs. Most of these were designed on Windows XP for specific dotnet versions and various other Direct X versions. As time goes on most of these programs will cease to work.

Scene drama? Is this a joke.

This was a year ago. The links to signup to the program closed.

Mimesis never touched the mainmenu, so it never was modified. It used "patch" files that sat in some TDATA/UDATA folder that would patch the mainmenu at runtime.

Robert has backups here: http://community.access.dyn-net.com/files/category/14-xbox-live%C2%AE-content-download-maps-dlc-maps/

The MCP format is the style that Mimesis uses. It contains the ContentMeta.xbx patch_v3.lvl modifed.map something else. Point being. If you put the modified.map where they belong (In some special TDATA/U/something) folder. Then you need to put the corresponding patch_v3 file so that it can hook into the mainmenu.

I have examined the patches I have, and the MCP format is actually a pre-patched .MAP file (Highly illegal lol) and patch_v3.lvl format. I believe you could just drop these into either E/TDATA or something and it would auto "patch" the game live.

The Mimesis system was an automated patch system built for the original Xbox. It would automatically download the MCP patch files (Which I believe were masked .serenity patches). I still have ALL the old .MCP files for the patch system as I used to be an official mirror for the project. Those were then applied to the mainmenu and stock map. The problem is that system was built to run on the xbox and communicate with their servers. The good thing. All the maps that were part of Mimesis are in Killtrocity v1/v2 or Phantom Mappack. So I'd just download and match the Halo mappacks: http://ibotmodz.net/forum/forum/13-mods/ (There all the stickied topics in here).
