[REQ] Gamertag Checks

[Colt]

I've basically finished my menu now (Finally!) but because I don't want Everyone using it/giving it out, I was wondering how I can put gamertag checks in it, does anybody know?

Also, if you want it then please let me know.

You could post dev only area

I didn't know there was one

this is a very basic gt and length check, can add a few more things or use extra COMPARE_STRINGS and GET_LENGTH_OF_LITERAL_STRING to throw people off the scent if they try and crack it

void main(void){
THIS_SCRIPT_IS_SAFE_FOR_NETWORK_GAME();
char *name = GET_PLAYER_NAME(GET_PLAYER_ID())
if (!COMPARE_STRING(name, "Your GT Here"))return;
length = GET_LENGTH_OF_LITERAL_STRING(name);
if (length != 12)return; //just stick your GT length in here
while(1){
//stick all the usual stuff in here
}
}

I see thanks a lot

How about multiple GT's? How would that be?

if (!(COMPARE_STRING(name, "Your GT Here") || COMPARE_STRING(name, "2nd GT Here")) )return;
if (!(length == 12 || length == 11))return;

making it work for multiple gt's makes the length check less effective

EDIT check your pm's for something else for security, didnt want to post it in a public forum and as im not dev i wouldnt be able to post it there

Could I not do seperate checks then? Like this:

char *name = GET_PLAYER_NAME(GET_PLAYER_ID())
if (!COMPARE_STRING(name, "1st GT"))return;
length = GET_LENGTH_OF_LITERAL_STRING(name);
if (length != 11)return; //just stick your GT length in here
char *name = GET_PLAYER_NAME(GET_PLAYER_ID())
if (!COMPARE_STRING(name, "2nd GT"))return;
length = GET_LENGTH_OF_LITERAL_STRING(name);
if (length != 15)return;
char *name = GET_PLAYER_NAME(GET_PLAYER_ID())
if (!COMPARE_STRING(name, "3rd GT"))return;
length = GET_LENGTH_OF_LITERAL_STRING(name);
if (length != 13)return;
while(1){

Would that work?

[zorg93]

no, because once return is called, the routine stops being executed and returns to what called it, there are other ways around it though, like setting a bool if the gamertag matches

[Colt]

Ah I get it.

Thanks

bool GTcheck(Char *GT, int safelength, char *safeGT){
if (GET_LENGTH_OF_LITERAL_STRING(GT) != safelength)return false;
return COMPARE_STRING(GT, safeGT));
}
bool GTchecklist(char *GT){
if (GTcheck(GT, 12, "Your GT Here")) return true;
if (GTcheck(GT, 11, "2nd GT Here")) return rue;
if (GTcheck(GT, 10, "3rd GT etc")) return true;
return false;
}
void main(void){
THIS_SCRIPT_IS_SAFE_FOR_NETWORK_GAME();
if (!GTchecklist(GET_PLAYER_NAME(GET_PLAYER_ID()))) return;
while(1){//code here
WAIT(0);
}
}

maybe a few syntax errors, but that should be fine for as many GT's as you want
