Half-Life Manager

[CSN NewsBot]

Those of you wanting a newer do-it-all program to manager HL/CS and a plethora of other things, fear not Half Life Manager has been updated to v0.4. Contained inside the small [under a meg] download is a program that will let you do the following and then some.

• buddy tracker - helpful for tracking your friends
  
  
• support for online messengers - aim, yahoo, msn, icq
  
  
• updated/tweaked filters so you can apply them before you begin pinging
  
  
• added option to control winamp from within hl
  
  
• added option to check the wonid database and lookup the cheater blacklist

So if this sounds llike your bag of tricks I suggest checking out Half Life Manager instead of the ingame browser or Gamespy3d. Thanks to [TUC]Wintermute for the tip.[break="Click here to see entire changelog"]V0.4 - 01.10.2002

i wonder if this will eventually be considered a cheat by the almighty VAC (if it really does integrate itself into Halflife)

[[TUC]Pete]

The IRC plugin (don't know the name now) is "detected" by VAC since it uses methods cheats also use.



Currently there are no problems with VAC or HLG ... even not with WWCL MM plugin.

I don't think that this will change since I'm neary shure that cheats will not use the method which HLM uses to "integrate" into HL

[DY357LX]

I couldn't help but laugh at the last listed "fix"



-"Fixed some other bugs"



Yeah..... suuuuure you did ;-)

Hm. I suppose you havn't worked on a larger software development project until now (HLM source currently have 2.5 MB - thats about 1250 filled Pages of text).
