An AutoHost player has already made a Java applet that automates downloads and uploads, automatically checks a game's web page every 10 minutes or so, and creates .Fxx and .Pxx files for every .m file it downloads. He has not released it yet, that's why I havn't made it available for download. His name is Jeff Hoyt. I've just emailed him asking when it will be released.



I have, indeed, written one and have been successfully using it for a while now. AlterEgo of these parts has been using it, too. Installation is not totally idiot-proof yet and checking is kinda slow (still trying to figure that one out) but I am ready to release it.

Ron just agreed to host it here, so I'll be working with him on how he would like to do it. In the meantime, if you want a copy, email me at jchoyt@users.sourceforge.net and I'll send one to you with brief instructions. The cost will be you have to give me feedback and help fill out the instructions. It requires Java 1.4 which you can get free from Sun (http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/download.html - you only need the JRE - the SDK is MUCH larger) for just about any platform. Note this will run on Windows and Linux.

Or you can wait until I get organized with Ron and get it free then Very Happy

Jeff
