AmIRC 3.5.24 beta timed/times out 1st Oct 2002. I quickly hacked a spatch that fix this. Apply it to the official 3.5.24 beta binary.

Posted by Budda on 30-Sep-2002 22:01 GMT | For anybody not sure what to do with the .pch file:-
Open a shell.
Change into the same directory as where AmIRC is installed.
spatch -oram:amirc -pAmIRC_3524beta-patch.pch amirc
You'll find the newly patched/fixed AmIRC in your RAM: disk. Backup your old original executable and copy the one from RAM: into your installation directory. |

Posted by Anonymous on 01-Oct-2002 06:34 GMT | In reply to Comment 2 (Aehhhhh): It doesn´t remove the neccessity of a keyfile.
In fact it had been Vapor´s responsibility to provide a new binary before
the beta-timeout which makes the product unusable for the beta/users. :-\ |

Posted by Budda on 01-Oct-2002 06:43 GMT | In reply to Comment 4 (Golem): Where is this new .25 binary available? It's not mentioned on either Vapor websites.
Is it just hidden away on the ftp server? |

(You can also get there from the normal www.vapor.com site, of course)
So can we now see this dodgy patch removed as it serves no legitimate purpose? |

Posted by Alkis Tsapanidis on 01-Oct-2002 09:49 GMT | In reply to Comment 9 (Keith Blakemore-Noble): This patch is made by Piru, Harry Sintonen, who is quite close to Zapek,
so this isn't an illegal patch and I'm sure Zapek knew about it. |

Posted by Neko on 01-Oct-2002 09:49 GMT | In reply to Comment 9 (Keith Blakemore-Noble): Piru can do stuff like this because he's good friends
with a couple (and more!) of Vapor members.
The patch serves a purpose, or served, for a good few
hours. And nobody at Vapor has their panties in a twist
about it.
Quit your whining. |
