NovaWorld enforces login on BHD

NovaWorld enforces logins on BHD now. Go to your BHD directory and open up the STARTUP .htm file and you'll see what I mean.

Thanks to Rogue for pointing this out.

I also tried my bypass patch for BHD I made quite some time ago (it takes you directly to the list without having to hit the login page), and nope that doesn't work as well.

Not sure if they're gonna do this to LW and TFD too, as well.

I reckon by doing this, it's a whole lot less cheaters.

that all so means maybe the no-cd patch may not work ether, but then again it may work if users go to public area and not NW-Stats servers after they log-in

Some people claim that they run the No-CD patch on NW servers and it actually works.

In fact, I think if you play in NW servers under the No-CD patch under a name like "dfbhd_patch.exe" you might not get punted, because it's under a totally different name. Not too sure about this though.

Just hit the update button in pinger - pinger is at version 5.2 now I think, at least there was an update for me.


Or manual instructions:

You have to update the pinger options-> game settings to reflect the new urls:

GLB File Link: http://nw4.novaworld.net/bhd_6.glb?a=1


Play Stats Link: http://novaworld.net/bhdqqstart6.htm


Play public Link: http://nw4.novaworld.net/bhd_6_lobby.htm?a=1


Join Link: http://nw4.novaworld.net/bhd_6_join.joi?RID=

Then pinger will work (at least for me, until I made those changes pinger just complained about not being able to get the server list).


I would try updating pinger first - they have enabled express login now.

Hey guys, looks like this information doesnt work anymore. Pinger wont allow you to add servers to your list other than the ones you already have. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get this fixed?

Well if you would have checked the support site for BHD Pinger you would have noticed everyone is expierencing this problem and that we have contacted the guy who has coder Pinger, Dstructr, to check it out.
Right now we know the following:

Quote:
It's not the glb, but the query for the port number which fails.

Before if you had a valid rid:
http://nw4.novaworld.net/bhd_6_join.joi?rid=67114345
Then the tile would contain a valid nova key, now it just conatins this:
<br /> [NK=&CK=&NI=&NP=&BK=&]<br />

Always empty, now this is the same response nova used to give if the server was taken down.

The problem is, the GLB file dont contain the port number, only the IP.
So to find the correct port, you need to run the link above which returns a novakey from the RID located in the glb.
The nova key contains both ip and port.
Quote:
If someone finds away to get the correct port number i will gladely update the pinger, but i will not spend time on finding it myself.
So if you have the solution to fix this you can stop by at the BHD Pinger support forums over here.

More information and a discussion related to the problems can be found over here.

GLB File Link: http://nw4.novaworld.net/bhd_6.glb?a=1

Play Stats Link: http://novaworld.net/tsabqqstart6.htm

Play Public Link: http://nw4.novaworld.net/tsab_6_lobbyax.htm?a=1

join Link: http://nw4.novaworld.net/tsab_6_joinax.joi?RID=

works fine for me...

Hey Sharp, this doesnt work. When you try to add servers to Pinger, you get an error message "No response from Nova." I read that the servers are now hosted by Freak Networks. Dont know the truth behind that but I did read that its because of the new game. Any other ideas or suggestions on how to get pinger to work would be helpful. At the moment those links dont. Thanks for the help though.

the version on nova-inside.com was released on the 26th, before the latest changes, at least if your speaking of 5.2.

Hey Sharp I have updated my pinger, I am using BHD TS and I have everything set as to the way everyone else would be. Everytime I try to add a server I get no response from Nova as an error message.

are you saying it still works for you?

It is my understanding that novalogic made an other change and pinger doesn't work any more.


Some one posted recently that the needed info isn't being returned, and the programer of pinger isn't going to fix pinger until some one tells him how to get that info.

I have gone over my pinger options 6+ times, letter by letter and it doesn't work for me.

All I can do is just manually add servers to my favorites list.

hmm works perfectly fine for me right now

go under options --> Stat Games

put in your username and password and have this as the:

Stat join link - http://nw4.novaworld.net/NWJoin.dll?...mode=stat&rid=

Stat login link - http://nw4.novaworld.net/NWLogin.dll...id=26&pfid2=30

just to see if that helps at all
