Of course, of course, I in no way want to displace your development of the application. I will call it something other than Cantr Monitor.

And yes, I was male the last time I checked.

I've created the basic functionality - at this point, it has no notification bubble or right-click menu, but can remember user details between launches.

Right now you can double-left-click on the tray icon to open the window again where you may enter your details. To make the program "forget" your details, simply log in with the "Remember details" checkbox unchecked.

This is really an initial release just to test its compatibility, so you'll probably want to continue using marol's version, unless, of course you prefer mine. :)

CantrSpy Version 0.1 Alpha - RAR
CantrSpy Version 0.1 Alpha - ZIP

To install, simply extract the folder called "CantrSpy" to your hard drive, and run CantrSpy.exe inside.

I'd be particularly interested to hear from anybody running Windows Vista - this should work on both Windows XP and Vista, but I myself haven't tested it. Also, if you find any bugs, please report them.

Also, Please do not run this at the same time as CantrMonitor.exe - This could cause the quota of one update every 90 seconds to be exceeded, and put extra strain on the server.

Just out of interest, what was it that made you assume I was female?

Bahaha, I thought it might be that. And yes Wiro, that's the intention.

Question: How do you make a Wiro confusion wit joo?

Statement and Conjecture: Poor Wiro, if you acted less female then the Wiro confusion would not even exsist.

Thought: I think I may want to try this CantrSpy problem is I thnk that refreshing my page works well and it doesn't use minutes unless I sign ino a secific character.

Another Question: What other advantages are to CatrSpy and CantrMoniter?

Well for one you can just look down at the taskbar and see at a glance whether you have new events or not, instead of pressing F5 and waiting for the page to load. You won't have to keep a window or tab open for Cantr if I implement a way to launch the player page automatically, and of course CantrMonitor can alert you with a baloon popup when you have new events, so you don't even have the risk of forgetting about Cantr for a second.

It's like a perverted tentacle stuck up your ass all the time you're online nudging your prostate and telling you to play Cantr. :)

Ah nice, another person who can appreciate one of the best RPGs ever made. Have you played KotOR II as well? I find it difficult to decide which is better. What KotOR II lacks in the defining qualities of the first game, it makes up with some new aspects... but I still think I'd choose KotOR. One of my characters is even named after a character from that game (you get a special prize if you can guess which one ;))

Well it's not exactly how I described it there, try to focus on the pleasurable aspects. :)

KOTOR II was okay... untill the end and I went WTF! I had no idea what was going on and I was crushing these jedi sith like they where paper. I could only stand to play KOTOR II one time. Heck your naked for the first 30minutes of the game.


Hmm... a character named after one of the characters in KOTOR. Dang you know its been like 3 years since I played the game right? *thinks to self* I wonder if I could get it real cheap again. Might ruin the experience after playing it a billion times or so... well 5 or 6 evil and 3 or 4 good to be honest. Ony one was absolute evil and one absolute good.

I remember them as characters and what they looked like but names... I'm so bad with names..

No Googling actually trying to remember.

Carth? .. was the soldier, mr Goody Goody. (Pimp slap!)

K 47 was the 'evil' robot or thats what I called him.

There was an odd R2 type unit too, almost usless.

This chick.... whaa whaa emo emo cut cut... Sorry that was my empression. My brain says her name was infact Bassillica or something similar but I don't remember. I think it was Basila.

There was the mandalorian- He had a tude but was cool with what ever you did. Also helped get the Ebon Hawk. That I remember the name of. :roll:

The Te'wlek and her wookie: Wookie usefull Tew'lek not so much.

OH and the cat chick if you saved her: She blames you for the distruction of her home world which was the one you where stuck on saving Bassila(?). I liked saving the 'cat chick' then going to the Sith planet and letting her kill that dude. Its funny!

OH and looking inside the box your not saposed to look into and challanging the first jedi race dude to a riddle contest. NUMBERS! Why did it have to be numbers. :lol:

Kicking that kid off my ship. Or leaning her language, not worth it to learn the language unless you really want the good Jedi points.


One thing I didn't get into was the pod races. After the first one you have to win on the first planet I just don't care anymore. It isn't any fun to play them. Good pay off from the tickets you win. Never freed that one guy from his contract because of it. I tried but the pod races just irritated too much! :x

In KOTOR II I liked the well nothing really from KOTOR II is in my head except the odd ending when everyone falls down a pit and I have to escape the planet but don't or soemthing. It was weird and I got lost REAL QUICK!

Oh the KOTORMMO will RULE!

You can forgive the spelling here I hope master joo.

On Topic: If/When it is 97% completed then I'll check it out. CantrMoniter as is seems like it would annoy more then help. Sorry Marol. :(
