I released a similar application a few years ago, and I constantly get PM's asking me to reupload it and make it better.

This is far superior that what I released back then, for a start it was in VB6 this latest version is coded in VB.net.

This program resolves IP address from hostname, updates server.dat and executes conquer which means people with dynamic ip address can now host servers without giving players hassle by updating there server.dat every day.

This client can also update the server.dat with your external IP and Local IP, this is handy if you code a lot and your ip is constantly changing, view readme for more.

This will work with any client (As far as I know plaintext server.dats still work with [Group] and Ip(ID)=IPAddress), if that is the case then it will work perfectly.

I have only tested this with Client 5017, but the executing method works with all other clients.

Enjoy, files are all inside the rar where there is also a readme file on how to use the application.

Last Application Update: 16th May, 8:22am.

There is a lot of improvements in this from my original thus that's why I call it pro edition :)

This is so dynamic compared to the original.

Yes that's the original, I lost the source for it years ago.

Well.....If they click the button autopatch skip you should have it on the autopatchskipped.log file somewhere in ur DB that way if it is..when they login it shows message...PLEASE GO BACK AND AUTOPATCH!!! and exit the client.

Not the best way but I would do it like the conquer.exe will say run play.exe ( autopatcher ) and the autopatcher when it finishes autopatch it will inject your serverIP into the client and work so that way if someone makes a program that blacknulls the conquer.exe the conquer.exe wont read it :D:D for that you just need a injector and a NOT CRACKED conquer.exe 5165 XD

I can make a variable called "SOwner", if it's one it'll not resolve the hostname but just update the server.dat with the users current IP,

want me to add that on?

If it's vb.net you're coding it in I can help you, but unfortunately not C# as I'm pretty novice at it.

PS. People, post ideas and I'll add them.

Next update will include kinshi's idea.
