Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

Wakeman rated this upload with three stars on Jazz2City.

First prog I’ve tried that uses Ruby. You’re the protocol master, Cheeze. :)

This blows the roof :)

It’s usefull. :)

It’s cool and easy to use, and the icons are nice looking. But you should make it so it’ll run JJ2 if you like right click and select play or something. And I am so darned use to the X to close in the corner so please add that.

There are plenty of list server capture programs currently available, and this is one of my favorites. However, it is aging quickly. It does not provide information on the server that is as in-depth as many of the other options, nor does it feature as much customizability, but it is a good old stand-by. It provides in-depth server information about servers that are currently up via a MS-DOS interface. Those who are frightened by command lines need not apply – this program has no interface other than the one MSDOS supplies. The default join name is “Test”, and while not the perfect option, it’s better than the annoyingly colorful join name that graced the original JazzTool. Still, despite its hard use, this script is worthwhile. However, new options such as JazzTool and J2SU are quickly passing it, and it is destined to be left eating new tools’ dust if there is not an update soon.[This review has been edited by Trafton AT][This review has been edited by Trafton AT]

I’ll review this when i have 1.23 and 1.24 installed again on my comp…so till then no review from me :-)

Wow! This is one of the most useful programd I’ve ever stumbled across over!! You can do a lot of stuff like check out which servers are up, how many ppl there are in the server and who they are. Also, you can see the lvl the server is hosting. Neat! (-D This is worth downloading folks… Here, take this 8.5.

Cheers,

White Rabbit.

Would using “§§” eliminate a “Joined the game/left the game” altogether? I would think it would still say that someone joined and left. I can try it, tho.

And keep giving me ideas and bug fixes…i might release a new version with bugs fixed, or a tk interface for the more graphical user.

As for installing it, i said that there’s a windoze intepreter for ruby here. You just install that, then double-click on the ruby file.

Ok, so I got it to work, and I saw how it works. It’s nice, but annoying, especially when you see that “Test joined/left the game” thing. I see it every 3 seconds at battle server! It’s not that bad though. I would rather not see Test joining the server every once in a while, so I suggest using “§§” so nothing shows up (instead, just a mysterious space pops up in between conversations). Is that a good idea?

A bit hard to rate it if you haven’t even installed it yet…

I copied all the files into the Jazz direcotry..but I still doesn’t get it working..Could you please submit a “How to install it”? Thanks :-)

This is a very nifty program that I like very much except for one thing, it makes test bots go into servers which really are starting to get TO ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I tried to ban it in the game, but it’s to darn fast and somehow I ended up banning some other foo. ( :P )
My solution was to add Test to banlist of course, but as long as u can live the rest of ur jj2 life with tests entering and leaving very quickly
you should be fine……..!!![This review has been edited by Spotty]

Congrats, Cheeze!
One of the most interesting programs I’ve yet seen!
I wonder if you could teach us how to do such things in VB :P
Hehe.

J2HG! We have the POWER!

Nice! It took me a while to figure out how this worked but I must say it’s cool! Although, it does not seem to work well on 1.24 servers.

This is the most useful tool I’ve ever seen for JJ2. Thank you Cheeze, for making this :)

Basically, this script connects to a JJ2 server and finds out what level is currently playing as well as all the players online. It is very easy to use, with a simple menu interface. You can select what list server you want to use, and then you can view the server list and pick a server right from it. Then it will connect to the server, and retrieve the level filename and the names of the players on it.

I only found one bug: When a server has timed out or something, if you try to connect to it with jj2srvinfo, the program will just sort of freeze (requires a Ctrl+C to get out of it on Linux; I haven’t tried it on Windows yet). But other than that, it is good! An upcoming J2HG project, codenamed XJJ2-2 will probably incorporate this into it, for ease of use without an interpreter, and a nice “Windows” look instead of text-based.
