Hey I was wondering if the making of a new dusk was under way. I used to play Darkstardusk, new dusk and Ataxia dusk. They were my all time favorite games growing up! 

Hey guys, this error comes up whenever they log on to
my dusk.

Error at run() with value
6:java.lang.ClassNotFountExeption: EquipmentFrame

I doesn't come up for me, but it does for anyone else.
 Any help on how to fix it would be great.

Found it!

Have you ever seen this error before?
at Player.writePlayerFile(Player.java:line unknown, pc0x8a3b097)
at Player.savePlayer(Player.java:line unknown, pc0x8aab08e)
at DuskEngine.run(DuskEngine.java:line unknown, pc0x832b6ea)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:325)

Do you know what that means or how to fix it?

OOops, we shoulda told the group. I carried on the conversation with André 
via private email but thanks for replying :-D You never know when I might 
ignore someone ;)

BTW Tom, do you know of a solution to the user files problem.. I don't have 
a copy of the error anymore, I have a habit of deleting long emails, but 
it's something to do with them not being read in right. Maybe André can post 
it here again?

you have to run it as: "java DuskServer"
if you put in the ".class" it screws things up, hope that helps!

Anyone ever get this thing to run  on a linux box?  I have a bunch of Red=
Hat
7.2 servers and every time I try to start it up I get:
[root@ns2 dusk-2.7.3]# java DuskServer.class
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: DuskServer/class
        at java.lang.Class.forName(Class.java:native)
        at java.lang.Class.forName(Class.java:52)

Of course on M$ is starts and works just fine.  BTW it seams alot faster
now, I checked it out a year ago and it was rather slow...  Plus anyone k=
now
what heppened to the website?

Dusk.wesowin.org is back up, hooray! Hopefully that will be the last of 
our significant downtime. All features should currently be restored in 
full operation, but if you discover and flaws please let me know asap.

Happy Mudding!

(Also, if you're recieving this under dusk-dev and have not yet switched 
to the sourceforge mailing list or want to become a registered project 
member, send me a private email, thanks!)

    This is a resend of my original post.  I had to do a substitute
of ampersand lt semi-colon for less than and ampersand gt semi-colon
for greater than.  That should allow it to go through.
    This is my version of the function "isValidName" for
LivingThing.java.   "conf/dirtyWordFile" allows for real time
blocking of offensive patterns in character names.
    The version in 2.7.3 restricts the players name to only letters. 
I think this would eliminate a large portion of the current new dusk
population.  I see nothing wrong with names like "death_god" and
"]V[agic".  But I do agree that names like "_______" and "00043212"
are fairly unwanted.  The strValid variable below can be adjusted to
contain whatever characters are allowed (remove the numbers if so
desired), and the "conf/dirtyWordFile" can include patterns like "__"
(a double underscore to force a single underscore between other valid
chars)
    My version also puts a value in prefs to limit the length of
player names.

    boolean isValidName(String strName)
    {
        if (strName == null)
            return false;
        if (strName.equals("")
            || strName.length() &gt; namecap
            || (strName.toLowerCase().equals("god")
            || (strName.toLowerCase().equals("default")))
            return false;

        String strValid = "0123456789_]['#";
        char[] letters = strName.toCharArray();
        char[] validChars = strValid.toCharArray();

        for(int n=0;n &lt; letters.length;n++)
        {
            if (!Character.isLetter(letters[n]))
            {
                for(int i=0;i &lt; validChars.length;i++)
                {
                    if (letters[n] != validChars[i])
                        return false;
                }
            }
        }

        RandomAccessFile rafFile = null;
        try
        {
            String strDirtyWord;
            String strLowerCaseName = strName.toLowerCase();
            rafFile = new RandomAccessFile("conf/dirtyWordFile","r");
            strDirtyWord = rafFile.readLine();
            while (strDirtyWord != null)
            {
                if (strLowerCaseName.indexOf(strDirtyWord) != -1)
                {
                    rafFile.close();
                    return false;
                }
                strDirtyWord = rafFile.readLine();
            }
            rafFile.close();
        }catch (Exception e)
        {
            System.out.println(strName + " had an error checking for
bad name in isBadName():"+e.toString());
            return false;
        }
        return true;
    }
