Title: Introduction
Post by: MusicDemon on November 11, 2009, 05:11 AM
Hi,

I'm MusicDemon. Programmer in VB.Net.
The reason I'm here is because I'm representative of PvPGN.
I'm a - nearly - retired StealthBot user.
I'm currently working on random projects.

That's it, bye!

I'm currently into servers/clients... Though, for my PvPGN server I've created an installer. I need to make it better... Any idea where to find a Class to extract *.CAB? I currently use a *.dll... Which shouldn't be used with an installer...

Welcome to the vL Forums, MD. Though vL has developed their own server long ago, called TestBNCS.

And heh, I must ask.. Does the PvPGN Official Rep get paid for that job?

We're free, and I gave a few spear time minutes to PvPGN. Btw; if we paid then, we didn't need to ask for free help. ;)

Look up the CAB file spec and write your own parser?

Seriously? You must not have google in your country.  Please stop being a help vampire, you gotta help yourself at some point. Almost everything you have asked I have been able to google solutions to in less than 5 minutes.

Searching isn't the problem; it's that it doesn't work.
