--Next project coming Custom Resolution Changer--

Moved to releases section.

And you guys are heros for making this. The delay was one of the most annoying things in H2V. I don't play H2V anymore, but I hope it gets adopted by a lot of hosts. Is H2V active right now? I might reinstall it if so.

since I don't know what that is, you want to explain to us that don't know?

In the pre-game lobby you can press X to delay the countdown. There's no limit to how many times you can do it, so people just abuse it to stop the match from starting.

Halo 2 Vista is active, theres a lot of players that come and go. You can always open it up and play a game there's around 50-70 servers. So basically it's just like Halo Custom Edition right now just not as popular.
But it's active.

fixed a bug where the app didn't work after the dedi ended it's match (you had to uncheck and recheck it.)

Also added the option to minimize to tray icon.

Very useful post there I see.

It's hist first app and I just helped him. Guess your first application was something way superior...

Yeah, windows didn't even exist at the time.. I guess everyone is gonna post their 1st apps then, even if there's a whole bunch of tools that can do the exact same thing already plus 100 things more...

Guess you missed out on something :P I can't count the numerous tool apps and box maps

hey vicky, if your talking about your servertool lol then i'd better stop. you made it for a game meant to be played on vista but oh wait... your servertool isn't even vista supported.
and the only other one is johnny's which is private.
this is just for everyone.

Yeah Vicky, this is for Vista/Windows 7, stop getting your panties in a twist.

Lol, my app is a servertool not a gametool. The game needs vista+, the server does not.

It is actually very rare that an older 32-bit Windows app will not run on a newer version of Windows (Compatibility Mode anyone?). This should be common knowledge as backwards compatibility is one of the (if not the) main selling points of Windows when comparing it to the Mac camp and its always buy new (and for more) method.

Kudos on your first two apps. Everyone has to start somewhere.

So your pretty much doing the samething with your app that was done with h2v, how ironic. But yah makes sense, a simple app like that being limited to a single operating system.

At some point it ran fine on vista and server2008 too but i left that part out, just more work to maintain. There's a difference between kernel 5 and 6+, some programs make use of that and some don't... the H2V server does.
