HaloHBF v0.1

I get so many hits to my site every day from people looking for it, so here it is.

HaloHBF v0.1

SHADE v0.1

odie5533 — Tue, 16 Oct 2007 12:44:32 +0000

Scriptable Human Automation Development Environment v0.1 I was never planning on releasing this, as it is not even close to being ready for release. But someone had mentioned it in an email so I felt I should at least let the world see it, even in its unfit state. I spent about 1-2 weeks writing this program back in July, and now that it is October I can see I am not working on it enough to do it justice.

SHADE provides users a lua-scriptable development environment to the InputAutomator class I wrote. InputAutomator basically performs things a human would such as moving the mouse, typing, and ‘looking’ at the screen. SHADE provides a front-end to the InputAutomator, but if you would rather program directly in C#, InputAutmator is released under the GNU GPL so feel free to. If you do ever make modifications, please drop me an email or post a comment. I’d love to hear about it

Anyways, here is what I have so far:

HeliumDownloader v0.1 Alpha

odie5533 — Sun, 02 Sep 2007 14:23:25 +0000

Alpha… It probably should be pre-alpha. In fact, the only thing it’s got going for it is that it works. It’s a download manager, for downloading from free upload sites like megaupload, egoshare, and oxedion (the only 3 it currently supports). I will probably add support for a few more sites after I work more on the program itself, but I’m going to leave it up to the general public to continue plugin development. Plugin development is easily accomplished for HeliumDownloader through the use of it’s lua scripting engine. That means, if one of the upload sites decides to change how the users download to stop the various download programs, HeliumDownloader can easily be updated to counter any such updates.

Although the source files don’t say it yet, I am releasing this program under the GNU GPL, including the plugins it comes with. I’ll probably make the licensing official when I get closer to finishing the program.

If anyone has any suggestions, please do post them in the comment. And if anyone would like to submit source code or plugins, please do. Also, if users would please upload their log files, I’d appreciate it. Use a pastebin like http://pastebin.ca/ to post the log, and then send me a link to the post in a comment.

Here is the Slice Image Method:

        public Image[] SliceImage(Image mainImage, int rows, int cols)
        {
            int ImageCount = rows * cols;
            Image[] subImages = new Image[ImageCount];
 
            int subWidth = mainImage.Width / cols;
            int subHeight = mainImage.Height / rows;
            Rectangle destRect = new Rectangle(0, 0, subWidth, subHeight);
            int curX = 0;
            int curY = 0;
            for (int i = 0; i < ImageCount; i++)
            {
                subImages[i] = new Bitmap(subWidth, subHeight);
                Graphics subGfx = Graphics.FromImage(subImages[i]);
                subGfx.DrawImage(mainImage, destRect, curX, curY, subWidth, subHeight, GraphicsUnit.Pixel);
                curX += subWidth;
                if (curX > mainImage.Width - 2)
                {
                    curY += subHeight;
                    curX = 0;
                }
            }
            return subImages;
        }

Using the Krypton Toolkit with Visual C# 2005 Express Edition

odie5533 — Sat, 07 Jul 2007 14:42:07 +0000

The Krypton Toolkit makes just about any form look nicer, and it’s free, so it is a great addition to a program.

Installing the Krypton Toolkit is probably very easy if you use the full version of Visual Studio, but with a few steps it can work seamlessly on the Express Edition too.

Download and install the Krypton Toolkit.
Copy C:\Program Files\Component Factory Pty Ltd\Krypton Toolkit 2.5.1\Templates\KryptonFormProjectCS.zip to C:\Documents and Settings\your username\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Templates\ProjectTemplates\ Be sure to change ‘your username’ with your windows username.
In Visual C# 2005 Express Edition, open the Toolbox and right-click it and click Add Tab. Type in a name (Krypton) and hit enter.
In the Toolbox still, right-click and click Choose Items. Scroll down to the K section and check each of the Krypton controls. Hit Ok.
Drag each of the Krypton Controls into the Krypton tab you created in Step 3.

Enjoy better forms with Krypton!

Activator v1.0 for GOTD

odie5533 — Wed, 02 May 2007 02:29:51 +0000

http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/ is a site that provides a different commercial software application for free everyday. The company also runs http://game.giveawayoftheday.com/, which offers a free commercial game everyday. The problem provided by these sites is that the installer is wrapped inside a program which activates itself online. That is, if you save the file you download legitimately each day, you will not be able to use those installers since they need to activate online. This method of DRM, like many other methods, is quite unfair to the user as you are forced to install the application the day of and never uninstall it or switch computers or reformat your hard drive. As the software is legitimately yours, I have created a program that will allow you to access your software! Source included, and GNU GPL’d.

Run Activator.exe and then start either Setup.exe or Activate.exe and the activator will send the required data to the programs so they will activate your software. Activator.exe will edit your hosts file, so if you are having trouble accessing the GOTD sites, try restarting your browser.

The Activator.exe works on a per-application/game basis, so it will only activate certain games/applications, ones added to the activcodes.txt file. To add more programs you need a bit of knowledge of packet sniffing so you can intercept the key and add the program. If I get enough comments asking for it, I may write a tutorial on how to add more applications/games to the support. Otherwise, simply download a new activecodes.txt and I will try to update that file every-so-often.

EDIT 5/17/07 I would like to clarify the purpose of this program to be sure that the creators of GOTD won’t get mad (well, too mad) at me. This program is not a substitute for downloading the software on the specific day. It is to enable users to use such software they legally download. There are a few ways of going about making sure you’re allowed to keep your software, some of which break copyright laws, which is why I have released a clean and simple way to accomplish this.

Once again, there are no reg keys or serials or whatnot included with this program. You MUST have the software downloaded the day it is released.
