Just an FYI. I am going to be moving on Dec 18th. The SVN and tarball on SF may be delayed. I do not know if I will have internet at that time. The 18th will be my last day in my current apartment and will be moving into my new house. Please be patient. I will get to it as soon as I can. Newby will hopefully have a patch file that people can use for now.
I can update the beta branch. I'd be happy to update trunk as well, if you'd like.
If I am not on the road for work, I can update SVN and tarball. Grats on the move! New digs is always a fun time.
Exciting!!!! I moved from a 900sqft apartment to a 2k sqft house last year. Congrats again.
Thanks. This is my first place even though I am in my 50s now. 1800 ft townhouse. I would be in my 80s when the mortgate is done.
Anyway, if you havent done it before, it is quite a few steps. Newby usually posts the patch. People should learn how to do it from the patch any way in case I am not around for some reason. People can wait a couple days if necessary.
Comcrap is at my new house. Getting hooked up now. I should be able to do the tarball and svn if the patch doesnt mess too much up.
structs, opcodes, zones...
Thanks newby - works good on official (had to go back to official 89 for a bit until beta 6 is fixed as that patch failed a hunk)
If anyone got spammed by my previous post (now deleted), I apologize. There's something weird going on with the post edit function, so I couldn't actually edit my post to make some needed changes.
Anyway... There were some differences in the opcode file on the beta branch, due to my attempts at learning to find opcodes myself.
I've applied newby's patch to the beta branch, so that should all be working now.
I've also got a couple of additional opcodes that can be updated:
OP_ExpUpdate: 61d5 (this may or may not be correct)
OP_LevelUpdate: 3de8 (verified working)
Here's a patch that integrates newby's changes with the above two opcodes. It applies cleanly to the official version and also matches what's in beta.
Thanks. I will have this done later today. Comcrap really screwed me. They made me pay a manditory 60 buck installation fee, even though former owner had comcrap. It is the only game in town. He hooked it all up and then I tested the internet. 17megs. I said hey I have the 100 megs package. He said they only guarantee 15 megs. It varies by area and this area is low. Then he leaves and comes back 30 min later. There is a problem with your account. You cant have triple play with the modem you have. I said I have had this modem for 8 years. He said it is manditory to rent a modem from them unless you go to double play. Oh and your free netflix isn't valid now since we broke your contract. Oh and the double play is 20 bucks more a month.
I said what are my options. He said I could start a new contract for either double play 20 more a month for one year and then another 20 extra after that. Or go with triple play and pay 20 a month more but would be good for 2 years but I would have to rent a modem at 15 a month. I said I still have 2 years left on my contract. They said comcast broke it. Those are your two only options unless you want no service. 170 a month. Now. No extras, no movie or sports packages. Less speed and more money. I hate comcrap!
8 years is a bit old for a modem. They're probably correct when they say you need a newer one with better speed, features, capabilities. The bit they aren't being honest about, imo, is that you have to rent one from them.
Sounds like a mess. With Spectrum here, modem and install are free. I pay $69.99/mo for 100/10 internet and I get 118 down and 12 up consistently. I don't have TV (have an OTA antenna and Netflix)
Well, I started to test the new version, but EQ is down. Once I verify the patch works, I will finish updating the SVN. Hopefully they will be back up tonight. If not, It wont be until Saturday evening before I can finish the tarball and svn.
The exe was updated along with the server patch today, so the opcodes have changed again. As such there's probably not much point in committing the opcode portion of Wednesday's patch, but you'll probably still want to commit the struct changes.
Just to clarify, yes my modem is 8 years old, but it is still docsis 3.0. 3.1 is out now but is only for gig speed. It was top of the line back then and has a maximum throughput of 744meg. Granted they now go over 1gig but I have the low tier of 100meg. Well within my modems capability.
Since I havent updated the SVN, only my local machine, I think any patch should be built off the existing SVN. Meaning add in the struct changes plus any op code changes.
I did not know there was another patch today. I would rather go fresh as if the patch on Thurs didn't happen.
.. I forgot to mention - I was using SB6141 (4x4 docsis 3.0) 6 months ago with 100/10, I was getting advertised speed. I retired it cuz Spectrum gave me a free 24x8 3.1 modem. And funny enough it gave me about 10ms less ping to EQ server. I could get 400/25 for $25 more month or 940/35 for $40 more a month but... 100/10 is plenty fast and I feel i'd be wasting more money.
it's deja vu all over again...
Here are some additional opcodes. This patch applies on top of Newby's patch above. (apply his first, then this one).
I've updated the beta branch to include both patches.
I can confirm the patches work, Thanks Newby and cn187. downloaded SVN, applied Newby patch, then cn187 patch, build and make.
Perfect.. thanks newby and cn187!
Hi everyone, where can i find documentation or something on how you guys make the patch updates etc?
You may want to read the man page, but generally it will be "patch -pN < patchfile" where N is the number of directories to strip from the paths in the patchfile. Also "--dryrun" will do a test application of the patch without modifying anything, to tell you if your starting directory and P-value are correct, and if the patch will apply cleanly.
