New PenguinPlug released

[s]starcraft[/s]

After the release of the news patch 1.13b by Blizzard which fixes a bug that made your Starcraft crash sometimes, the program PenguinPlug didn't work anymore properly. A new version has just been released.



Blizzard released the new patch 1.13b just some days ago, a quite small patch fixing a bug that causes your games to crash in some circumstances as well as it seemed to be a serious security issue for Battle.net. This new patch made PenguinPlug crash too as it is stated on the official homepage :
I just updated for the new patch 1.13b... the old penguinplug didnt worked on this version, altough it could be loaded correctly, it was crashing after 3 seconds in the game.

If you have never heard of PenguinPlug so far a short list might explain you which features this program supports and if it is usefull for you. The link to download the latest version can be found on the links below.

- Replay with text / RWT: Save all the message of a game in its replay automaticaly (you can save the replay comments to a .txt file with the command "\rwtexport")
- Unshifted Hotkey: Your french/belgium keyboard layout will no longer force you to use capslock to press hotkeys (not usefull if you have qwerty keyboard)
- Replay anti-crash: warn you if the replay get corrupted durring the game and try to fix itwhen it's saved
- Replay Auto Save: Save the replay of every game automaticaly, this comes from Lasgo who is the original Author of the first version
- Command line editing: you can move forward or backward in the "in game messages" with the arrow key. You can also scroll up & down in Replay With Text
- BWAC: For advanced users only, it's a very complicated way to catch some cheaters in some replays, check the readme to know more (it's disabled by default).
- Anti-Spoof: Detect if someone in the game is using a cheat program to get a fake aka (experimental, thanx ilintar for the help) .


Changelog :

- New graphic config GUI to change the options easily (done mostly by Ilintar)
Spoof detection (Experimental - disabled by default)
- BWAC action read-ahead durring replays (should make less false-suspicious alerts if you have enabled bwac and you watch replays - but there is still quite a lot)
- Option to change the SC process priority, i didnt tested how efficient it was but feel free to tweak it and repport how much it changed your life ;) (Feature coded by Ilintar)
- Detect the version of starcraft and display a message if it's not 1.13b
