=================================================== README.TXT - Last Modified: 10/05/03 @ 05:59 PM EST =================================================== DemiSentry Copyright 2002-2003 by: Digital Alchemy art@unknownrealm.og http://www.unknownrealm.org/demise =========== What is it? =========== DemiSentry is a companion application for the Demise Internet Server. With DemiSentry installed, you can autostart the server, perform scheduled routine maintenance, as well as a number of other functions. ============ Requirements ============ Windows NT4/2000/XP. DemiSentry will NOT fully work under Windows 95/98/ME. I currently have no plans to add support for Windows 9x/ME. ==================== Whats New - 10/05/03 ==================== - The following items can be reset on a specified schedule with no server restart/interruption: o Gherick's Quests o Guild Master Log o Transaction List o Public Messages o Store Inventory o Confinement NOTE: These are the ONLY items you can currently reset. I realize that there are other items in the Scheduled Tasks list, but they are currently not enabled and you will not be able to add them to the reset list. Additionally, the Every Restart option does not currently do anything. You will have to schedule your restarts (for the time being -- this will be resolved once I add some more restart functionality). - You can send and recieve server messages by right-clicking on the player list and/or taskbar icon and selecting the 'Chat on Server' option. - Resolved problem where DemiSentry window was positioned off screen if your taskbar was anywhere else other than the bottom of the screen. All windows default to open up in the top left (0,0) and "remember" their window position if your move them. - re-wrote process monitor to make it 'smarter' - Now uses installation program to automatically "drop" DemiSentry.exe in your Demise installation path. ==================== Whats New - 05/25/02 ==================== - DemiSentry now shows who's logged in to your server (NT/W2K/XP only) - Have DemiSentry Autostart with Windows, launching the server automatically - All configuration settings actually have an impact now. They were saved and read in before, but not actually applied. ============ Installation ============ Installation is simple...I know how much people love reading documentation. So here it is: Just run the Setup.exe and the DemiSentry.exe will be placed in your Demise installation path and a Desktop/Start Menu icone will be created. Please send any/all feedback or problem reports to art@unknownrealm.org. The latest build of DemiSenty will also be available here.
